Maybe we're tanking officially.
After last year's promising draft, maybe tanking is for the best...
Hate to nitpick but technically it's not tanking if you couldn't have won the games anyway.
I think what we are doing can be more accurately described as "sucking"

Guys, are you even aware what position Hicks played for us?
He was almost always an end, not a tackle.
He was mostly an end, but did play DT some over the years. I mentioned Bunkley b/c we are thin at DT and he was a good run stuffer. I think we are worse off at DT than at DE.

Maybe, the Pats don't have a true base defense and most of their nickle/dime defenses are based on a 4 man front.

On the inside, Jenkins is average.
Williams is actually playing pretty well.
At the ends, Jordan is playing really, really well.
Richardson is getting better all the time.
Gwacham is someone to look out for.

Yea I agree, Jenkins is playing ok and Williams pretty good. Just not much depth there, especially with Williams age being a factor

What many are missing is just how young the guys we have are on defense.
Whether than pan out or not our front 7 is young as hell. I tried to find a age grouping for starters in the NFL but failed

@MikeDetillier: DL. Akiem Hicks was a major disappointment. Wanted a major $$ contract. Athletic & flashed- can't get off blocks quick & average instincts
So that's really what its all about. We didn't want to give him the payday.

Because if we had a real awesome DT in the middle, the line would look so much better.
He'd eat up blockers, freeing up Jordan and whoever is in on the other side.

I'm about at my wits end with this team. I don't even know how to feel anymore. Good? Bad? How did it come to this?

Watch how good Akiem Hicks plays for the Patriots.
While I agree with this, this count nugget gave the saints shite for picking the dude.

Sounds exactly like us then

I forgot Hooman was still on the 53, I just assumed he didn't make it passed final cuts
