Durant Brooks SELECTED BY: Washington Redskins Round 6(2)

SI Grade 3.48 GRADING SYSTEM

BIOGRAPHY: Junior-college transfer who came to Georgia Tech as a junior and has started the past two years. Averaged 45.1 yards on 65 punts last season with a long of 77 yards. Placed 33 punts inside the 20-yard line. Junior-year totals included a 45.2-yard average on 79 punts including three that traveled 64 yards.

POSITIVES: Strong-legged kicker who gets great hang-time on punts. Has a big-league leg, punts his team out of a jam, and flips the field. Solid directional kicker who can place punts when needed.

NEGATIVES: Slow getting the ball off his foot.

ANALYSIS: Brooks has been a consistent punter at Georgia Tech and can play at the next level if he improves his speed getting the punt away.

PROJECTION: Early Fifth Round
