BENGALS TAKE BROOKS IN "TURD" ROUND
Two league sources advise us that the Cincinnati Bengals have selected linebacker Ahmad Brooks in the third round of the Supplemental Draft.
It figures.
Perhaps Marvin Lewis and the Bengals should change the name of the third round to the "turd" round, since they've now used three consecutive picks in round three on guys of questionable character.
In the 2005 draft, Lewis snagged receiver Chris Henry, who has since been arrested four times. In April 2006, Lewis took defensive end Frostee Rucker, who has faced multiple accusations of misconduct with females.
Now, it's Brooks -- who was kicked off of the Virginia Cavaliers after his junior season. Jason Cole, formerly of the Miami Herald and now of Yahoo! Sports, reported that Brooks failed multiple drug tests while in college.
Nice job, Marvin.


I would've taken him in Rd 4 on, but Rd. 3 was a little early. We'll see how the kid does.

The attitude of that team had them on may "Might Drop" list. Now they're lower.

Maybe he feels more at home with a team full of thugs. Maybe he has a plan to start drafting a lot of thugs so they can start a crime organization.

Brooks is a good pickup that would have been a first rounder if he could stay away from off-field issues and the bud. We'll see what happens.

Brooks did not commit any crimes, beside using drugs. He hasn't killed anyone, etc, so I feel Lewis is not even a close comparision.

I was actuley surprised because i'd figure some team would have wasted a second on him particularly the 49ers they needed talent and looked desperate but im glad they didnt bite but what surprised me as well is the jets ahve 2 second rounders next year one given to them by us ha but i guess mangini talked to groh and got negative remarks by broks former coach at virginia. If the redskins werent soo deep with potential talent at lb i would like to see them take a chance on undrafted lb dan dixon did you guys check out the stats on this guy damn.
