Derrick Brooks: The GOAT

Pat Yasinskas, who often covers the Bucs for ESPN.com, wrote a nice little piece about how Derrick Brooks is often overlooked as one of the best linebackers of all time, but should definitely be in the conversation.

But has there ever been a more complete linebacker than Brooks? Has there ever been a linebacker who's played at Brooks' level for as long as Brooks has? Has there ever been a linebacker who has done more for a franchise than Brooks?

I say no.

If you're tired of the negative tone this offseason has taken, do yourself a favor and take a minute out to read this and make yourself feel better.
