Measurables will give Brooks consideration as a weakside linebacker in a one-gap system, yet he must quickly pick up the tempo of his play.

Pos:

Hard-working, yet undersized linebacker who makes plays solid sideline-to-sideline. Remains disciplined with assignments, quickly reads the action and has a burst of closing speed. Constantly flying around the ball.
