From Gary Shelton of the St. Petersburg Times
APDerrick Brooks is still unsigned.
The days pass. The phone does not ring.
We are two weeks from the start of the opening of training camps, and Derrick Brooks, a linebacker all his life, does not have a job.
How can this be? Has the NFL reached the point where it has 250 or so better linebackers than Brooks? Was the tape on Brooks from last year really that bad? Is Brooks' agent holding out for a really, really big offer from the newly formed United Football League?
Or, perhaps, has time caught up to the fastest linebacker of his generation?

We need you in Oakland Brooks! With Morrison and Howard you could complete the trio that would dominate the AFC West and the rest of the league.
