Ahmad Brooks never expected to be in the situation that he is today. Brooks was kicked off the Virginia Cavaliers football squad due to numerous undisclosed infractions. The star outsidelinebacker was expected to be drafted high in the first round in the 2006 NFL Draft, but wasn’t drafted because there were many questions that surrouded his play on and off the field. The Supplemental Draft is an annual draft coming up on July 13, and many teams seem very willing to take a chance and give up a draft pick on this first round talent. The most intrested team in Brooks so far has been the Miami Dolphins, who last year forfeited a 5th round choice on USC defensive tackle Manuel Wright in the Supplemental Draft, who has turned out to be a complete and utter bust. The Dolphins are one of 22 teams, including the Packers, who are reportedly intrested in Brooks. Whether or not a team will throw away a second round pick to grab Brooks, its not yet certain, but if it were up to me, I take a chance on a first round player who will has a ton upside and with correct coaching, will be more of a boom than a bust.
