Can I fit four briskets on a 22" WSM?

I have been volunteered to cook four briskets for a picnic on my 22" WSM. I am thinking I might be able to fit four 8 pounders on. But someone else is bringing the brisket, and I may not get to choose the size.

Does anyone know what the largest briskets are that would fit on the 22", two to a level? Or is there a way to rack them?
 
It all depends on the briskets' dimensions. A 14 lb'er could be either short and thick or long and thin.

At 8 lbs, they sound like flats and not whole 'packers' with point attached. If so, you should be able to fit 4, 2 to a grate.
 
I bought a couple of steamer racks from the restaurant supply store and I am going to stack the briskets, one to a rack.
 
It shouldn't be a problem. In the rare case one is huge, just cut the end off the point and squeeze onto the rack with the most space.
