Jonathon BrooksCAR

Currently at ADP 95 but faces significant concerns: two torn ACLs in his recent history, unproven recovery at full speed, and uncertainty about whether he can return to pre-injury form. The source expresses skepticism about assuming Brooks is 'who he was two years ago, two torn ACLs ago,' and predicts a boom-bust cycle where Brooks will be 'chased up' in ADP before 'bad news' emerges and he falls again. The source prefers Hubbard at ADP 90 for safety in the running back market.
