[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1001703, member: 10086"] I’ll go DL, Karl Brooks from the Massive Metropolis of Bowling Green, OH. The Packers lost a couple of significant players along the D front in Reed and Lowry and they’ll need at least 2 guys to step up. Brooks was all over the map in pre draft forecast. As high as Round 2 and as low as Round 7 (we finally found him irresistible at pick #179). He’s hard to project against NFL competition and it’s partly why he was a Combine snub. However he was a noticeable standout at the Senior bowl and that got him noticed. His dominance in the lower MAC Conference was still a compelling reason to look closer at him. Brooks went on to rank #3 in QB pressure rate last season across the entire FBS. Personally, He reminds me of a slightly taller (6’3X300lb.) version of our former “Big” Mike Daniels. His play style is similarly explosive and Karl works his tail off regularly. That effort shows up in his Elite grade pressure rate (PFF;62 pressures/12 sacks in 2022). [SIZE=6]NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein’s take on Karl Brooks[/SIZE] [I]"The inclination to shrug off Brooks’ production based on level of competition − or because of questions about his positional fit − might be a mistake.
