I agree, but he's a FA after this season. Although, I would like to see him re-sign. He's been steady.

Re: Baldy's breakdown

I hope the Saints front office/Loomis can make it work next off season.

I'd prefer letting ANDRUS PEAT walk in a New York minute if it means we could retain Apple. Solid #2 corners aren't easy to find at this level.

Re: Baldy's breakdown

Letting Eli walk would be a bigger mistake than not resigning Hicks.

I get what you mean but the Saints traded Akiem.

IMO the damage was done (lack of coaching and on field production) and he landed in Sean P's dog house. Too bad they couldn't make it work.

I think Hicks got caught in the Saints locker room cancer purge. He probably wasn't up there with Stills, Galette, Cooks, etc., but when you're cleaning house a few good items can get thrown out accidentally.

I got the impression that Rob Ryan didn't know how to use Hicks, or want to, and so he was traded to get a blocking TE in return whom Payton could use.

That’s pretty much what Vilma said about him when we played the Bears.
