From the article
Jonathon Brooks is one of the best late-round running back values because he finally enters the season healthy and has a realistic path to a featured workload. Carolina vacated more than 250 touches after Rico Dowdle's departure, and Chuba Hubbard struggled to create explosive plays or force missed tackles last season.
STACKED’s take
Positive signalBreakout
Brooks' health and 250+ vacated touches position him as a late-round breakout candidate.
Brooks is one of the best late-round RB values because he finally enters the season healthy and has a realistic path to a featured workload. Carolina vacated more than 250 touches after Rico Dowdle's departure, and Chuba Hubbard struggled to create explosive plays or force missed tackles last season. Dave Canales has consistently leaned on one workhorse back once a player earns his trust, making Brooks an ideal breakout candidate if his talent separates him early. At his current cost, Brooks offers league-winning upside that far outweighs the minimal draft-day investment.
