He doesn't try to do too much, we need guys that know their assignments and understand where the help is. Like you said, good speed and range, he covers ground quick from sideline to sideline with solid fundamentals. He's still young and hopefully his best ball is still ahead of him. We definitely needed some better coverage LB's and Brooks fits the bill. Long is more of a run stuffer, I like the pairing.
@@popcornblast5348 they also had the best run stuffing LB core and DT. I'll rather watch the film to see. He's smallish but never watched him enough to see in him verse the run.
It is funny that the Dolphins and Seahawks essentially swapped starters at MLB. I love your videos: from a Seahawks / Dolphins fan in Washington State!
as a Seahawks fan y'all will love him a lot. he's a below average cover guy but he's improving every year. he's not an amazing blitzer but he can make plays if left unblocked because he's a very good tackler.
Don't let Brooks' stats fool you. I've watched every play he's made for the last 4 years. Has trouble dissecting plays. out of position the majority of the time, sets up too deep on TE-crossing routes, and not fast to cover down the field. Tends to get washed out on running plays, usually making the tackle 10 yards down the field. he'll make alot of tackles, but don't be disappointed if the TE has a big game, or the RB runs for more then 150yards that happened more then 50% of the games he was in.
i feel like you nailed it. brooks has been average and at times below average, it always felt like brooks was a step behind which is why the seahawks weren't willing to pay him the money he wanted
Seahawks fan here : jordyn was one of my favorite players on the defense. he is a solid tackler, he does get beat in coverage sometimes, but he will get u guys 100 tackles a season easy. u took brooks so wee took baker, can you guys tell me alil bout him? he looks like he is better than books but I'm unsure.
Yeah, I saw that and was surprised. But they had his man coverage rating quite high and his zone very low. Then they put an article out that they liked his coverage ability so I was confused. The film showed me some pretty impressive ability in coverage.
You mean his 89 passer rating against in coverage makes him good at coverage and not a liability like PFF would want you to believe?! *pretends to be shocked*
Brooks is one of the worst cover LBs in the nation according to PFF. I'm a lifelong Seahawk fan - he's know as "Mr. Tackle Someone 6-8 yards downt he field". He below average overall but quick enough to track down ball carriers way down the field. Watch the tape - he's the opposite of a "scrapping linebacker".
Ross is selling the team. That was brought earlier in the year. Don't be surprise with a trade up in the draft for calib. Hill, waddle, tua, holland, and achain. Its wishful thinking if they think the dolphins will win the superbowl with the roster they will put together. They couldnt win with last year team. Sometimes you just have to start over, reboot. I think thats why miami cant get over the hump.ego. like usher say let it burn. Dolphins fans at the end of the day, we will understand. But we cant understand wishful thinking
Brooks hasn’t been the same player since tearing his ACL. He’s not very good against the run but I agree he’s a good coverage LB. Now do a breakdown of our new 6’1” 274 pound Center that cannot pass block to save his life. I cannot believe Grier is this incompetent but there’s no denying he is the worst GM in the NFL. The WORST!!!
I think Brooke is a very big disappointment. You guys are ruining this team. Unbelievable getting rid of good players to get shitty players. Unbelievable.
I'm a huge Seattle fan and watched every game. He is a good tackler but TERRIBLE at coverage so take that as you will. he is also an injury prone player.
