Brooks is upside play over Hubbard; capable receiver in passing-friendly offense
Jonathon BrooksCAR
Jonathan Brooks is the clear upside play over Chuba Hubbard in the Panthers backfield; as a capable receiver who must stay healthy, Brooks should get more fantasy-relevant touches than Hubbard despite similar volume splits. The Panthers' draft of deep-threat WR Jalen Coker signals a shift toward more passing, which favors Brooks. Novak prefers Brooks as a higher-upside dart throw in the late rounds, noting that if either back produces a zero, it doesn't matter much, so the higher ceiling is the better bet.
