explosive LSU corner with big-play DNA
Ron Brooks stood out at LSU as a high-upside corner who played bigger than his role, posting 30 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, 6 pass breakups, 3 interceptions, and 2 defensive touchdowns in 2011[3]. He was known for elite speed, strong special-teams value, and a knack for turning takeaways into points, which made him more than a standard coverage defender[11][14]. The main fit question was consistency: he was not a full-time starter in college, but his burst and playmaking made him a useful option for teams wanting an aggressive, versatile DB[9][11].
