02Scheme fit
Ideal system

Brooks' best fit is in an outside zone or stretch run blocking scheme that takes advantage of his speed and ability to get to the edge.

One-cut runnerOpen-field threat3rd down backKick returner
Best role

Brooks projects immediately as a change-of-pace back and special teams contributor, with the long-term upside to develop into a reliable third-down option.

Wrong fit

He would be significantly less effective in a power-gap scheme that requires constant interior breaking tackles and consistent short-yardage conversions.

Zac Brooks' speed and receiving ability make him a valuable asset in specific offensive systems, but his slight build and inconsistent power limit his versatility.
