Default Derrick Brooks
Wondering if the following factors might have the Pats bring him in for a look-see.

1) The lack of progress in Alexander.

2) Paris Lenon's health/supposed inability to pick up the system quickly.

3) The expanded use of the 4-3.

They just brought in a sixth running for camp fodder. Something tells me if they were interested in Brooks (or vice versa) he would have been here before now to compete with the other LBs.

Ya know ....now that I've thought about it.

1) Alexander's replacement might be found in somebody already in camp.

2) The extent of Lenon's injury is unknown. Could be nothing. Camp is long so he still may have time to acclimate to the D.

3) Just because Derrick Brooks played primarily out of the 4-3 his whole career doesn't mean he'd be so easily accustomed to our scheme.

Thanks.

No one wants Brooks. The Raiders took Morlon Greenwood over Brooks this week. That tells me he is probably done.

Hmmm....Brady is the obvious answer.

But I really like Wilfork in all-aspects....as a player and person.

He doesn't want to play on ST? Forget about signing here then.

Nope. Not interested. Maybe if we've been running the 4-3 for a few years now and Derrick Brooks, at age 26, was available - then yes. But not now.
