on't see how this is a reason.

How and why did Hicks go from preparing to be a breakout star to "our garbage" in 20 games? How could we not properly motivate a young guy with some talent in his contract year?
This is their garbage for a someone who 4 weeks ago was supposed to be our 2nd best D-lineman. Don't tell me Richardson was just playing so well he put Hicks on the bench because that ain't the answer.

I'm not disagreeing with you. Johnson sucks and so does player development in general, but the deal itself is neutral if not mildly positive.

He played poorly in the preseason as well. It's not the front offices job to motivate a guy in his contract year.

He showed promise, but hes just a training camp hero. Arizona's interior line was an opportunity for him to feast and he shite the bed and was rotated out. It's not a surprise after that, our defense played remotely well.
