Here is Chris Brooks' big carry on the day, and one where the front really does make it easy. The alley is clean, and then Brooks is able to get a big chunk play. You can see once he gets into space, though, he just doesn't have any juice... Brooks is a lot of things, but he's not a value-add as a ball carrier.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Brooks lacks explosiveness in space; not a value-add as a ball carrier.

Brooks lacks athleticism and explosiveness as a ball carrier despite benefiting from clean blocking. On his big carry of the day, the offensive line created a clean alley and Brooks reached space, but 'once he gets into space, though, he just doesn't have any juice.' The source notes Brooks is 'not a value-add as a ball carrier,' limiting his fantasy upside even when the front creates opportunities.
