Basically said that in his opinion Tryon Smith is basically a ROT, possibly to heavy to play LOT, from what he heard Smith couldnt hold the 300 plus weight at USC, but he could be an old fashioned ROT that you run behind etc..

Also, dished on Patrick Peterson saying in the tx a&m game how they picked on him and he is to heavy at 219 to play CB, no CB has ever played in the NFL at that weight and was successful. While at same time with the safety talk, he might not be able to play safety and take everthing right off the bat with multiple coverages etc...

Talked some DE and said he sees cowboys going after watt moreso that he is more ready, not flashy and make big plays but hold down the fort so to speak at DE to allow ware, spencer and others to make the big plays.

Lol, Bucky Brooks is about the least informed analyst I've heard talking about the draft.

Not only does Brooks contradicts himself by saying he can't hold 300lbs and then states he is too heavy to play RT; he calls Smith an old fashioned ROT.

I've never heard anyone else call him too heavy or a traditional ROT.

I didn't listen the report, but based on what you translated; this guy has ZERO credibility.
