Knee Health To Determine Year 1 Upside
The Carolina Panthers beefed up their running back room by drafting Jonathon Brooks out of Texas with the 46th overall pick in April. While Brooks was the first RB among his class to be drafted, he joined a crowded room next to Chuba Hubbard, Miles Sanders, and Rashaad Penny in one of 2023's worst offenses. If Brooks' knee looks great at camp following November 2023 surgery to repair a torn ACL then his draft stock will rise. His career at Texas was limited in 2021-22 before he racked up 187 carries as a redshirt sophomore, averaging over six yards per carry (1,139 yards) with 10 touchdowns before the ACL injury. Brooks also chipped in 25 catches for 286 yards, which bodes well with joining a Dave Canales offense after he heavily involved Rachaad White through the air. For now, Brooks is on track to be ready for training camp. Carolina may ease Brooks into the action but the upshot is he overtakes Hubbard and company for lead-back duties. Mind your bench space as a result while supplying ample depth around him in best ball drafts. If Canales can help Bryce Young and company grow then Brooks could find weekly top-25 RB value by year's end.
