Cowboys | Brooking may be a target

[Bob Sacamano]

Why are we hell bent on getting older at that position? If you want a vet, keep Zach and draft a young player in the middle rounds.

not to mention slower, Bradie James is already a sloth

 

[28 Joker]

Oh, come on.

Sign the old man. Show him the money! Sign Igor and tell him to bring iFrankenstein with him. He will fit in perfectly. I need to have some help getting some of the young ones out of jail. Tell Jason Hatcher he's too young, strong, and cheap. He's just a third rounder. We need a press conference I tell you, a press conference.

Keep playing that iplayer/old man Greg Ellis. Don't play Spencer every down. He was just a first round pick rated ahead of Woodley. Ellis really knows how to fire up the fanbase with his endless complaining and pention to act like a first grader.

Promote the Barbie Doll to middle linebacker. Tell Kevin Burnett that iOwens has his money. I can hear the crowd now... Barbie... Barbie... Barbie... He's gold I tell you, gold. Cha-Ching!

Roy Williams can play linebacker, I tell you what. His second contract was the best one I've given out, besides my last one to Terrell.

Draft the highest rated SS in round 2 in this weak safety class. That guy the Commanders drafted in round 7 isn't any good.

Tell Miles Austin that Terrell is coming back, and he can start looking for houses in South Beach. That second Dolphins 2nd rounder will get us some real fine 3rd round talent. I gave his money to Terrell, too.

You know, that puppet/cupcake is really allowing me to enjoy this so much. I've never had a finer puppet. That 44-6 drubbing at Philadelphia just lit my fire. "I like that kind of stuff". It gets us in the spotlight. I like it.

Tell Ken Hamlin and Flozell Adams that I owe them some more money after last season. I feel like I ripped them off. Tell them to just name the price.

Ray Lewis.... Yea haawwwww..... $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

One last thing.... Henry staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarts......

Keith Brookings is one hell of a LB IMO. However, he did not play well for Atlanta when they ran a 34 a few years ago. As soon as they went back to a 43, he started putting up numbers again. I don't know. I like Brookings but I don't know if he fits well into a 34.

Exactly! Can you say square peg... round hole?

so vela mentions brooking get released possibly in his blog.

Mcmahon reads it here or on velas blog and puts it on the dmn blog.

Kind of funny.

It was actually Tim MacMahon from DMN. KFFL was just paraphrasing his article.

That's right... We run Smart Tech.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

I really don't think that Brooking is much of an upgrade over Zach, if any at all, but I guess he's slightly younger so that might be the one upside.

 

[jobberone]

We need faster and bigger ILBs if we're going to play a small NT and play the gaps and attack. Zach is too slow anymore and not big enough to fight interior lineman off. We need a bigger NT. Ratliff is not big enough to fight them off all game long. And when they start banging away inside we need the tools to stop it. I don't see how you can play an attacking 3-4 all the time in today's NFL. I think it's obvious that Tank didn't do the job he was asked to do. He wanted to play Ratliff's spot and nobody wanted to be the stump in the middle.

well reread what I wrote you will see what I am getting at.

 

[theogt]

Uh....is this the story they're referring to?

It's literally just Timmy speculating on possible free agents.

He freaking sucked in the 34, looked totally lost.

This sucks if true.

He had his two highest sack totals in 02' and 03' when Wade Phillips was the D-coordinator and he's coming off a 100 tackle season. Everyone needs to be realistic, we aren't in a position to draft starting ILB, atleast no one who will start as a rookie so we'll need a short term fix.

 

[dbair1967]

Can Brooking still play? he fell off the face of the earth thr last few years..I'd rather have a quick sideline to sideline ILB like Leroy Hill...

Brooking is way past his prime. People think Bradie James is bad in coverage, just wait till they saw this guy. He's definitely no more than a 2 down player at this point, and he isnt even that good vs the run.

I'd rather see us keep Burnett or Thomas than sign this overrated player.

 

[dbair1967]

remind us again, what year is it now?

 

[SDogo]

Ok, got ya now:

 

[Manwiththeplan]

remind us again, what year is it now?

he still had over 100 tackles last season, more than ZThomas had last year. If he comes cheap, I don't see why it would be bad
