Guest TerraTor Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Really loving Terrance Brooks at FS. I think Donald is the pick at 14, assuming he's there. His instincts are top notch and fast as hell. Plus he's got the boom on his tackling. These two are day 1 starters and solidify the front and back of the D. Hopefully can find a decent LB to step in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawhizz Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Brooks is my guy too. Watching highlights (and I realize they are highlights for a reason) I see him making all the tackles I wish Conte would have made. Plus he's got speed.

sulster Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Overview: Few players have done more to move up draft boards than Terrence Brooks. FSU's senior safety was a three-star recruit coming out of high school, and doesn't have imposing physical characteristics. But that hasn't stopped Brooks from soaring up draft boards, mostly because of his impressive speed numbers. Brooks ran a blistering 4.42 40-yard dash at the NFL combine, and since then has gone from a late-round pick to a potential second-round choice as a safety. Brooks took and held his starting job at FSU against some highly touted players for two years, and became one of the most reliable parts of the Seminole defense in the process. Strengths: Brooks wasn't known as the fastest guy on FSU's defense in 2013, but he opened eyes with his speed in postseason workouts. A 4.42 in the NFL combine showed just how explosive he can be. Brooks was a solid all-around player for FSU, showing equal propensity for run support and coverage. He didn't have very many interceptions or big tackle numbers, but he was almost always where FSU needed him to be on the field. Weaknesses: Brooks doesn't have great size for an NFL safety. He also didn't have the best interception numbers in 2013, and his tackling ability has been questioned at times. Brooks will face questions as to whether he has the size and durability to play safety in the NFL. Where does he fit in the NFL? Brooks was one of the smartest players on FSU's roster from a football X's and O's standpoint. That could pay dividends for early playing time in the NFL if he can adjust to more advanced defensive principles at the next level. He can also play at nickel or dime back in the NFL, so anyone needing a versatile defensive back from the second round on will probably take a look at Brooks as a great option.

scs787 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 I've been on the Brooks bandwagon as well. It was real tough for me to pass on him in the community mock draft. Unless someone seriously drops to us at 51 (See Hageman in the community mock) Brooks would be my pick no questions asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParkerBear7 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 yeah, I accepted a trade back with MIA and Donald Dropped to my pick which was hard cause Pryor and Buccanon were both available but I could not pass on the best DT knowing I had several chance with the extra 3, 4 and 5th round picks to address the secondary was basically going BPA addressing the most glaring needs as a priority.
