Yes on Brooks. Pretty easily, actually. We've already seen Hubbard lose this job once. To Rico Dowdle no less. So if Jonathon Brooks is truly healthy—and that's obviously the key, but obviously tons of encouraging reports so far—he was the much better prospect coming into the league and has a much higher ceiling.

STACKED’s take

Brooks' superior prospect pedigree and ceiling make him a better ADP bet than Hubbard.

Matthew Berry prefers Jonathon Brooks over Chuba Hubbard at their respective ADPs, pretty easily. Brooks was a much better prospect coming into the league and has a much higher ceiling than Hubbard, who has already lost a job once (to Rico Dowdle). If Brooks is truly healthy—with encouraging reports so far—he is more likely to smash his ADP. Even if the backfield becomes a 50/50 split, Brooks is the more explosive and efficient player, and Berry would rather bet on him in the middle rounds where he's swinging for upside.
