According to National Football Post, it is possible that the New Orleans Saints will have competition with the Oakland Raiders for free agent linebacker Derrick Brooks.
The New Orleans has been in their pursuit of Brooks since news broke that veteran Mark Simoneau will undergo surgery to repair a torn triceps. Since Simoneau missed all last season while recovering from back surgery, it was no wonder that the Saints changed their target to the 11-time Pro Bowler Brooks, in hope of bringing some help to their defense.
As for the Raiders, it is still unknown how much they are interested in the veteran linebacker, who spent his whole 14-year career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. At the moment, the Raiders have Ricky Brown at middle linebacker, Thomas Howard to be the starter and rookie Slade Norris to replace injured Jon Alston.
