I think he can be a really good complement to Chase Brown, and Perine and Moss give some 1-year insurance to cover if Brooks need a season to build up the chops.
But he runs hard, can catch, and he puts in effort to block.
He's short too like Gio Bernard, but bigger.
His testing scores were poor on just height and bench, but he has elite agility, solid speed, and solid explosion.
Honestly, Brooks might be my favorite pick of this draft class, and he ended up being the last pick.
Love it.
I see that the Chargers picked up Sanders as a UDFA. I have a feeling he'll have a career there. Najee Harris is pretty durable but he's getting old for an RB so if he goes down I could see Sanders getting in the rotation.
And yeah, I'm pretty excited about us draft Brooks. I'm imagining him blocking for Burrow and catching passes in the next few years. Can our offense get anymore dynamic? Being a DC planning against has gotta suck and that's just gonna continue.
