Talk about the AFC, NFC, the NFL Draft, College Football... anything football that has no Washington Football Team relevance.

Chiefs Cut Eric Hicks

Post by 1niksder »

CHIEFS CHOP HICKS from PFT

The Kansas City Chiefs have announced that defensive end Eric Hicks has been released after nearly a decade with the team. He has spent his entire NFL career in Kansas City.

"Eric has been an excellent football player for the Kansas City Chiefs and a superb representative of this organization in the community these past nine years," team president Carl Peterson said in a release. "Eric is one of the best college free agents that we have signed since ’89. We congratulate he and wife, Erica, for undertaking so many charity endeavors in Kansas City . We will always consider them a part of the Chiefs family."

Translation -- we love ya, and we always will. Now get the hell out of here.

Hicks was under contract through 2009 at salaries over the next three years of $2.9 million, $2.5 million, and $2.5 million. He appeared in 16 games last season, but started none. He has 44 career sacks; zero in 2006.

I say if the price is right, we should give him a look. Former Maryland Terp = local ties.

I dunno...I'd take a look at him but there are bound to be more cuts and I think we'll be able to acquire a more promising player with less mileage if we hold out a bit longer.

Thats what I was thinking. We really should wait and see if we can get a younger player who is cut. We are just so aged on the dline. I know they are healthy, etc. But overall, we need youth.

I do remember back in the day when our team won superbowls by having a roster full of rejects. I'm not saying that this guy should be on our team at all but a reject plays with a chip on his shoulder and we need guys with chips.
