The problem is within the site as well which is on 100mbps network.  So I am
pretty sure it is not a WAN issue.
This server is connected to 11 other sites (hub and spoke)  the links are
various speeds, but problem exists on all queues.

Sounds like a bandwidth issue between the sites. What kind of link is it. 
What is utilization like on the Bridgehead server?
