Tony Brackens

I thought for sure someone in hear would of brought up the fact that Tony Brackens was released. I believe it was yesterday. Anyway his size and weight and the fact that he was the leader in sacks for the jags last year would be a nice fill it for D Grant while he is down. Want to take a look?

He has had surgery on both knees. But the last time he had surgery was before last season then he went on to lead the team with 6 sacks.

They also have Hugh Douglas now and probably didn't want to pay both of them.

Work him out simply because of his potential for some more sacks...HOWEVER i don't think there has ever been a time when i've seen him 100% healthy! Non Stop Injuries-one after another etc. But oi suppose that's a fair risk to take for vet minimum bearing in mind he could pay off bigstyle!

It is his knee, he probably wouldnt pass the physical even if we did sign him. Was a good player when healthy though.
