Trade? or third pass rusher to regain value?

44 - Hau'oli Kikaha

At this point, anything we get from Kikaha is lagniappe after 3 ACLs.

Agreed. Kikaha should've been moved last season when we were going full into the 4-3 and took Sheldon Rankins...

I may be wrong but I believe that even though he has potential as a role playing DE he is a better fit as a 3-4 LB'er. Some team might see a little value in him and trade for a conditional pick.

Just my opinion, the Saints run a base 4-3 but they line up in the 3-4 often enough to make Kikaha worth keeping as a OLB. I love the high motor guys and his 4 forced fumbles were outstanding.

Agreed. Him, Swann, and Williams just don't have the bodies. It's a shame because they have talent and give 110%.
