Second-year DL Akiem Hicks is concentrating on defensive end in the Saints' new 3-4 defense.
Following the hiring of DC Rob Ryan, many penciled Hicks in as the starting nose tackle in New Orleans. After the team drafted behemoth NT John Jenkins in the third round of last month's draft, Hicks is now expected to be the top reserve at all three defensive line spots in a Ricky Jean-Francois-esque role.

Second-year DL Akiem Hicks is expected to see time at both nose tackle and defensive end in the Saints' new 3-4 defense.
"(He'll) probably begin at the nose, then learn the end position as well, as opposed to the other way around," GM Mickey Loomis said. "He's got some versatility. ... So we're going to see. We're going to put 'em in the spot we think they fit best, but that doesn't mean that's where they'll end up." Hicks spent his entire rookie year at defensive tackle, registering 20 tackles and one forced fumble in 383 snaps.

Saints declared DT Akiem Hicks (knee) inactive for Sunday's finale against the Panthers.
No surprises for the Saints. Pierre Thomas (knee) landed on injured reserve Saturday, giving Chris Ivory, Mark Ingram and Darren Sproles a boost. The rest of their inactives: CB Jabari Greer, LB Scott Shanle, WR Saalim Hakim, G Ricky Henry, DT Tyrunn Walker and TE Michael Higgins.
Sun, Dec 30, 2012 12:00:00 PM
Saints third-round DT Akiem Hicks (hand) has been cleared to practice.
Hicks began camp on the active/PUP list, but was removed on Tuesday. He was recovering from a twice broken right hand. The move means he won't be eligible to begin the year on reserve/PUP, and should see a full complement of preseason snaps. A massive but raw 6-foot-5, 318-pound talent, Hicks is expected to be eased in to the Saints defense slowly.

Sidelined
Saints coach Sean Payton promises the looming contract showdown with Jimmy Graham will have no effect on where Graham lines up in 2013.
Graham, entering a contract year, is going to want to be paid as a receiver whether it's on a long-term deal or franchise tag. He could command upwards of $12 million annually. "We're going to put people in different spots all the time to get them open," said Payton. "Whatever we have to do is not going to be dictated by the interpretation of some rule. We're just going to try to win."
