Players Packers will regret not trading for: Akiem Hicks

It was always unlikely two division rivals agreed to a trade, but Akiem Hicks would’ve done wonders for the Packers’ defense.

At 31-years-old, his best days are behind him, but he would’ve been a great fit alongside Kenny Clark on the defensive line. The two guys would eat up blockers and open up more holes for the fiery De’Vondre Campbell.

With Hicks on the field, offenses wouldn’t be able to double both him and Clark, freeing one of them up to win one-on-one battles. He would have a positive trickle-down effect on everybody else.
