Chuba Hubbard is the incumbent back ahead of Jonathan Brooks in the Eagles depth chart; Brooks' upside depends on his ability to pass Hubbard for touches and role expansion as the season progresses.

Jonathon Brooks

NegativeValue0:00

Brooks' ADP has risen from the 140s to the 120s to the 110s and now early 7th round in best ball formats. The source adopted a scaling strategy: minimal exposure at 140s, mixing him in at 120s, and hammering him at 110s, viewing him as a value play ahead of market confirmation. At 7th round cost, the source feels the bet is made but notes risk increases as ADP climbs toward 6th round territory where Blake Corum becomes the preferred alternative. NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe reported no limitations for Jonathan Brooks heading into camp, confirming positive health trajectory and clearing a key concern for draft consideration. The source expects Brooks to have a defined role in the Eagles offense with team hopes he can take over a bigger role as the season progresses, making him a speculative but intriguing play; this role trajectory supports his value at 10th round cost but becomes riskier at 7th round ADP. Brooks is the incumbent back behind Chuba Hubbard in the Eagles depth chart; his upside depends on his ability to pass Hubbard for touches and role expansion as the season progresses.

0:00the the Jonathan Brooks news, more more
0:02positive news there.
0:04>> Um a guy I've been I've been lower on,
0:08I've been skeptical of, but I think both
0:10like national reporting and like uh this
0:14was NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe said
0:17that there'd be no limitations for
0:19Jonathan Brooks heading into camp. Um so
0:23again just
0:25not that that's necessarily a surprise
0:26at this point, but more more good news
0:28for him. I I'm curious if you've like I
0:31know you're already high on Brooks. Have
0:32you like kept bumping him up or where
0:34are you at with with that news?
0:36>> Not really. I mean, I think we what I
0:38like to
0:39Brooks I feel like is a situation
0:42kind of sums up like the way I'm trying
0:43to play best ball right now. He's like
0:46Jonathan Brooks is going in the 140s. I
0:48don't have a lot of them there. He was
0:50going in the 120s. I was like
0:53starting to mix him in.
0:55He's going in the one teens and I'm
0:56hammering him.
0:58And then, you know, he's moving up and
1:00up and up and now it's like
1:03I'm I'm getting confirmation of what I
1:05thought was pretty likely. Like be ahead
1:08of the market on something that looks
1:10likely. The market's like, "Well, yeah,
1:11he could be
1:13he could, you know, this this is looking
1:14better. It's looking more positive, but
1:16I'm not I'm not 100% sure yet." I'm
1:18like, "I'm not 100% sure either, but I'm
1:20confident enough
1:21to to make the bet. And then, if he
1:24continues moving up and up and up, it's
1:26not like
1:27I mean, at that point you're kind of
1:28just taking on more and more risk that
1:30he actually isn't able to pass Chuba
1:32Hubbard or or whatever else. But we
1:34we drafted him like on the main event.
1:36We got him in the seventh round.
1:38Um took him ahead of RJ Harvey. He's now
1:41I believe up in the sixth round
1:43there uh in the main event. Um
1:46So there is going to come a point where
1:48like Blake Corum is now a choice with
1:50with him and Jonathan Brooks and I I
1:52prefer Corum.
1:53Uh
1:54so
1:56yeah, I think like he's in the early 7th
1:58it looks like, Jonathan Brooks in in the
1:59main event. But, I think he keeps moving
2:01up.
2:02Um
2:03and maybe did we take him in the 7th or
2:05the 8th? I can't remember. Anyway,
2:07we we got what I felt like was a value
2:09and it turns out to have been a value.
2:10So,
2:11yeah, Brooks is I'm feeling good about
2:13having made the bet. Um it's not a
2:15player where I feel like
2:17I even need to get
2:19like this is it just was we were
2:20trending toward this type of report.
2:22Like he is going to
2:24have a role.
2:26They have hopes that he'll be able to
2:27take over a bigger role as the season
2:29goes on and that he's
2:32a speculative but intriguing play. And
2:35that's pretty awesome if I can get it in
2:37the 10th round.
2:39It's uh
2:40it's actually kind of risky when it
2:41costs a 7th round pick.
