Hicks (30 yrs old), 1114 snaps, 116 tackles, 4 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, 0 ints, 5 PD

Outside of Wagner or trading for Roquan ... there wasnt many options and zero good ones. Maybe Hicks would be a slight improvement but Id rather go with our in house guy all things considered. The youngish guy from NE was a good candidate but he stayed in NE.
Corner? There were good players to be had, and still had.
