That particular repair job must begin with the pass rush, which means the DL. Yes, we need an upgrade at Safety, but the DL is a far more critical need.
However, if you cannot abide throwing another pick at the DT position [and I cannot fault you for that], you are welcome to join me in the “Sims or Siavii will pick it up this season” bandwagon and look at drafting a DE to replace Hicks.

This reminds me of what I said last off season about Mitchell. At some point you have to expect some return on these youngs guys that haven't shown anything thus far. You can't draft a MLB every other year, while ignoring other positions of need. I think this year you could say that about a lot of positions. We're going to have to hope for something from guys like Battle, Hodge, Thorpe, Siavii (yea right) or Sims.
You just can't replace every bad player in one off-season, so you have to put some faith into our young prospects.
