4/11/12: Hicks was decent at the Combine, but doing well in his team interviews were probably more critical than having a big field performance. The Canada product Hicks caught scouts attention by flashing at the East-West Shrine practices. He is a large man who has some quickness and athleticism.
Hicks was at LSU before leaving the program in January of 2010. He was signed out of the community college ranks prior to that. Hicks has physical tools, but teams will need to do research into his background.
There is a couple videos on youtube that show off his skill set. I think this guy could be just as good as any other DT in this years draft. He uses his hands well, has a very good burst, bull rushes well, and seems to love the game.
Playing in Canada raises questions about the level of competition he played against, but he played pretty well in the Shrine game proving he can play with the big boys.
I woould love to pick this guy up in the 4th

Joe McDonald. Don't know what he runs the 40 in. Probably kinda slow:

Prospect Whitney Mercilus and his outstanding wingspan:

Prospect Davide "Fido" Castro:

I guess we know what team would be a natural fit for Dontari Poe:
