Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Brooks has an enormous catch radius and shows the ability to get low to dig out passes.
  • He has strong hands and is extremely competitive, and Brooks has an innate sense of timing when it comes to elevating and high-pointing balls.
  • Has good body strength to squirm out of tackles with the coordination to maneuver his frame between defenders.
  • When used downfield, he shows the ball-tracking skills and hand-eye coordination to make the adjustment on underthrown balls and back-shoulder throws.
  • Does a nice job locating and tracking deep passes and is a legitimate vertical threat. Willing to go up and attack the ball.
  • Brooks fights his way off the line of scrimmage against press coverage, showing quick, violent hands and good balance.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Does not have elite speed to burn by defenders. Does not drop his hips to get in position while blocking and fails to take correct angles to his man.
  • He’ll have to develop a better feel for sitting down against zone coverage.
  • Brooks seems comfortable in traffic to the point where Brooks doesn’t make the effort to create separation.
