Agree with you. The front office sucks, but don't see how this is a reason.

Yep. This deal isn't the problem. The problem is, outside of a Gresham and Greg Jennings visit, that we did NOTHING to address TE or WR in either free agency of the draft. shite, even Rob Housler, who signed a minimum deal with Cleveland, would have been a decent move.

The Saints D-Line is not getting pressure on any QB. Cam Newton ate soup in the pocket before each throw. Hicks poor play is partly his fault and partly no D-Line pressure on the QB. Getting rid of him is not the answer.
Hicks should do far better on most other teams. If so, good for him and too bad for the Saints. If he does poorly in NE, then his career is over. NE can pressure the QB. Hicks will probably start playing with more effort there.

The Saints must be playing for the #1 pick in the 2016 draft. Maybe they won't screw up that pick. Best case scenario is the Saints trade their #1 pick for more picks.
