red78skin2 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Attention: The next great linebacker to play in the NFL is not even in this years draft or on a college team.... I haven't even heard his name called.. True he may need an attitude adjustment but who doesn't at the age of 21... True he's been dismissed from his college team but it would be foolish if the Skins with it's EXPERIENCE Coaching staff & Scouting department would pass him over.... And we could get him for cheap too! Heck we finally got # 21's attention :wavetowel AHMAD BROOKS... IF YOUR FROM ANY WHERE IN VIRGINIA YOU KNOW THE NAME :thumbsup: AHMAD BROOKS... 6'4" 259 lbs and can run like a deer and has all the skills to become an ALL PRO... I am a loyal Redskins and UVA fan... and if any body ever seen this kid play... then you've seen the unlimited potential... I love L.A aka Hollywood & it hurt to see him go... but forget who's in the draft this year or next year or the next ten years..... AHMAD BROOKS can do it all !!! AND YES HE'S COACHABLE IN THE RIGHT SITUATION.... GREG WILLIAMS & DALE LINDSEY DOESN'T TAKE ANY ???? FROM NO PLAYER!!! Let me know what you thank fam!!!

RabidFan Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Isn't he going to be in the Supplemental Draft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xameil Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 You're Ahmad Brooks' agent aren't you? :laugh: Are you hoping JG, GW, or Andyman read this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jschlesi Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Attention:AND YES HE'S COACHABLE IN THE RIGHT SITUATION. Sooner or later all time boms explode... He needs to ride the bench, play special teams , and develop some humility. I call it "act like a man -- if you want to be treated like one" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPstretch Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 don't expect to see him in burgundy and gold anytime soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red78skin2 Posted April 5, 2006 Author Share Posted April 5, 2006 To: Xameil I am not his agent at all... but i no talent when i see it... and besides i hate the cowboys but i like D.Ware because he's a game changer... in football you need game changers at all three levels on defense Secondary: # 21 / D Lineman: # 96 / LB'S: 53 Another LB wouldn't hurt...

skinswin Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 We'll see. I trust the FO to do their homework and if Brooks is worth it, the skins will make a bid for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lombardi's_kid_brother Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Isn't he something like 310 pounds at the moment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jflagg215 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Who's Ahmad Brooks? Why would we want anyone that was dismissed from their team when we look for character first? Also, if he was dismissed, is he even in shape to play ball or has he been on the couch for the past few months? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailYeah Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Isn't he something like 310 pounds at the moment? Thats why he'll play D-line for the Redskins like his daddy' date=' Perry Brooks.

TheMalcolmConnection Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 I have a hard time listening to draft advice of a college team's #1 fan. And really, I have yet to see Demarcus Ware be a game-changer. He's above average, but nothing special yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HailYeah Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 I guess, as it is he's in the supplemental draft but he can petition the NFL to be in the April draft. I wonder why he didnt just declare right away before he got kicked off the team? Every draft board has him rated like a Brian Urlacher with very few downsides.

radskin Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 This guy Brooks is a legitimate prospect...potentially one of the best LB's in the nation according to the scouting reports. He's a big guy 6'4" and 260 lbs and supposedly very fast and a great tackler...some people comparing him to a bigger version of Ray Lewis?! How does the supplemental draft work? My understanding is that you take someone in the order of the draft, team by team, and if you take a player, then you sacrifice which ever round you took the player in next year's draft. Is this right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critz1407 Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 I would say that we should atleast take a good hard look at him, he could be a vast improvement in our linebacker core in years t come. As for a problem child, We have Taylor and we all think hes great. Not to mention I bet GW can keep Brooks in line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaK9Trainer Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 I've seen him play. He's a BEAST! BUT....does anyone know if this thing about his weight ballooning waaaay up is true or if so, has he trimmed back down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jethrodsp Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Better name from UVa if LB is your position of choice: Kai Parham-MLB Smart and tough, he regularly played tougher, smarter, and more consistant than Brooks on the same UVa defense.

What about thomas howard from U.T.E.P. he is very fast and is a game changer. He runs a 4.4 and use to be a defensive back. He weighs 240 wich is solid weight for a linebacker. This is were we need to go with in the second round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
