re: 2012 article trashing Akiem Hicks pick by guess who

My first two guesses were Prisco or JJ. The only reason I recognize that name is because last year doing the Nnamdi "sweepstakes" his "sources" were saying that they believed he was signing here.
Then one day he said Nnamdi "should be wrapped up today", and a weeek later he signs with SF. I'm guessing he's one of these guys who knows someone who knows someone that works for the team, and he takes it a little too seriously.

I had Hicks graded out as a late fifth-early sixth round pick in my rankings, and just about every scouting service had him around there as well.

Whew, I'm glad pur scouts are better at their jobs than a Bleacher Report blogger.

He has the talent to be a top defensive tackle in this league, but this pick looks eerily similar to the Al Woods pick a couple of years ago.

I don't see any similarities between the two coming out of college besides they both played DT and got recruited to LSU.
