As for Hicks finding a job, guy like Eric Hicks get jobs after June 1st EVERY YEAR. This idea that it's somehow harder for him to find work now is ridiculous.

Nobody was going to trade for him with his current contract.

Q: Herm, back on December 25th you were asked if Trent Green was your starter going into next season and you said, ‘yeah, why wouldn’t he be?’ Have you changed your mind on that?
EDWARDS: No, I have not.”
