Atlanta | LB Keith Brooking expected to become a Free Agent

[Shzm13]

What do you guys think about this guy?

Worth a shot?

 

[Goober Man]

I would give him a look as a replacement for Beisel.

 

[Shzm13]

Really? I think hed be a very solid acquisition. Hes solid against the run, but isnt very good in coverage.

 

[abomb]

No thanks. He'd probably get concussed signing the contract.

edit: My bad, I was thinking of DE Patrick Kearney.

I wouldnt mind Brooking.

 

[Assface]

Wasn't Brooking the guy who allowed Spach to get that first down for us in the playoffs?

 

[Goober Man]

He is a 5 time Pro Bowler if I remember correctly I expect hm to be solid . He's up there in age though.

He will be starting somewhere and I doubt we offer him that opportunity.

These great players don't all get released just for money reasons. There is usually a large drop-off and/or steady decline in their performance.

If he expects to be a starter here, no I don't want him. Frankly, I have not watched Atlanta much so I can't fairly judge him.

I don't know about this. My in-law is a huge Falcon's fan and Brooking was the bane of their fanbase this season. They were all hoping he would have retired before this year. On paper he has solid numbers, but apparently he's lost a few steps.

 

[az jam]

Not interested, his best days are behind him.

On a one year deal for some depth and leadership, I wouldn't mind this guy. He is one of the smartest linebackers in the league
