Look at it this way, if we can get a player who can see the field more than those situational downs, would you make that trade?

Kikaha is too small to anchor the edge as a defensive end...

In his own career interest, he really should be playing for a 3-4 team...

New Orleans Saints: Hau'oli Kikaha

I remember reading somewhere that he had put on about 20 LBS... but he is still listed at 246.

Smash, you're correct about the added way which at the beginning of the season was 263 lbs...

I just think that slows him down, plus that added weight on a recently reconstructed knee makes me wince...

If we could trade Kikaha for another Interior Defensive Lineman, 4-3 Linebacker, I'd just as soon exchange assets to gain for the team...
