Default Reiss: Brooks Back in Play for Pats?

Mike Reiss' blog - Brooks says he wants to play; Pats a possibility? - ESPN Boston

This was posted last night, after we'd all given up on the idea that Derrick Brooks might be headed to N.E., given the news he'd just signed on with ESPN. Turns out, he's reconsidering. We'll see.

I will believe this when I see, I just don't see it.

I think he has the choices right. He would upgrade any of those three teams. However, the injuries in NE and CHI are likely the big difference makes in his decision to reconsider.

He's probably going to watch the TD to INT ratio of both teams this weekend.

If I was going to throw a tired Linebacking body into the fray for one more year, I'd want to chose a contender.

Between Da Bearss and The Pats... well after last week maybe it's not a no-brainer. Maybe he's picking Galloway's brain a little.

He even said on SportsCenter yesterday that the talks were still going on between him and the Pats. It's just a matter of if/when the Pats pick up the phone and call him.

I think the Pats wait until another cog on defense gets hurt like AD before they go to the streets to pick up someone,I think they have full confidence in Alexander,Woods,Banta-Cain,Nincovich to do the job right now.

So wait, the talks are going on between him and the Pats? Or is he waiting for them to call?

Then their confidence is misplaced.

Brooks, or Zack Thomas or Matt Wilhelm would be an instant upgrade over Alexander, who could then be placed on the shadow roster until another cog in the defense gets hurt.

One of the above needs to be signed now, so that he can learn the defense & contribute next to/in place of Guyton as soon as possible.
