Well, Sherman is just really old, can't run for a full 16? game season...

Adoree is smallish, gets bullied - a lot...

Fuller has some injury history, maybe playing in a dome environment vs all those games at Soldier Field in the slop and cold helps...

You nailed it buddy.

Not going to lie, but I'd love to get Akiem Hicks back - could you imagine Onyemata and Hicks bullying interior offensive lines?

Matty Ice probably would go ahead and retire...

It would be incredible. Hicks HATES us though. I’ll never understand why we tried to make him line up at DE.

I saw some banter between him and Cam on Twitter. Cam told him to come to New Orleans and he said hell no. Told Cam he should go with him somewhere else. I think there’s a lot of bad blood between Hicks and Payton or the FO. Money talks though...wait never mind we don’t have any.

That was during Payton’s square peg round hole phase. Right around the time he started to try and copy the Legion of Boom defense in Seattle in spite of not having a single player that would thrive in that scheme. I’ll have to say though I think he learned his lesson and takes more of a hands off approach with DA.
Speaking of, we are about to find out just how good DA really is. If he can keep this defense top 10 I see a head coaching job in the very near future.

Don't know if he's got anything left in the tank, but T.Y. across from @CantGuardMike would be interesting if you got Ole' TY back...

Man... the Patriots really botched free agency. They gave big contracts to meh players to compensate for their horrible drafting.

I’m thinking the same thing Chris. All the fans here are excited about it though, so one side is wrong.
