STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Brooks poised for breakout; healthy, drafted high, and positioned to lead Panthers backfield.

Brooks is generating steady momentum in Carolina after the Panthers let Rico Dowdle walk, signaling confidence in his ability. Despite missing most of his first two professional seasons due to injury, he was the first RB selected in the 2024 NFL Draft and was an elite college player, averaging 6.2 yards per carry at Texas with 25 rushing touchdowns in just 11 games in his final season. He will have 'no limitations' during training camp and is fully healthy entering his third season, expected to force a committee with Chuba Hubbard and potentially overtake him. His ADP is only going to continue to rise, and he's going nearly 20 picks later than Hubbard on Underdog, making him the clear target in this backfield with excellent upside for his draft position.
