Who is Derrick Brooks ?
Who's your favorite player?Mr. Derrick Brooks!Congrats to number 55! I feel honored to have watched his career all those years.
WHOOOOOOOOOOOP!!!
Appropriate honor for one of the greatest linebackers ever and a fabulous role model and leader. Thanks 55 and congrats!!
Strahan don't deserve it IMO.
Amazing and awesome! So happy for him right now, and what an honor it has been to have him as a Buccaneer and Tampa resident for so long.Very, very excited.
So glad he made it in, beyond well deserved.Andre Reed OTOH it is criminal he made it in.
Glad he made it on first ballot.
I really hope Will Shields makes it. It would be criminal if one of the greatest guards in history doesn't make it on his second try.
Thank God he made it in. He's one of the best players at his position and classiest men I've ever met. Mr. Derrick Brooks, welcome to NFL immortality, a well deserved honor.
Today is a great day!! Congratulations to my absolute favorite player of all time!! Can't wait to go to Canton! :D
Andre Reed OTOH it is criminal he made it in.
How wide open is the door at that position now? I was young when he played, but don't think of him as top 5 player at his position during his generation (probably right outside top 5, but still).
