Biography: Three-year starter awarded All-Conference honors since he junior campaign.

Positives: Effective position blocker who displays ability in space. Quickly sets in pass protection, immediately gets his hands into defenders, and stays square. Bends his knees, adjusts to defenders and displays good footwork sliding laterally. Keeps his feet moving throughout the action, seals defenders from the play. Good jolt and explosion at the point of attack. Moves relatively well on his feet, keeps his head on a swivel, and helps out line-mates.

Negatives: Lacks a strong base and gets no movement run blocking. Average athlete.

Analysis: Brooks is a small yet very quick lineman with possibilities in a zone-blocking system. He must improve his overall strength yet is a solid developmental prospect who could end up on a practice squad.

Projection: 7-FA
