Marcel Brooks' Position

i love the energy this dude brings and hope we can find a way to consistently get him on the field, but where will he play?
he's really not big enough to be an every-down LB/rush end; although, i thought he filled in for Divinity nicely in the Cheetah package.
maybe he will move back to safety but play more towards the LOS, as a hybrid safety/LB, similar to Jacoby Stevens this year.
we will see but hes too athletic to be on the sidelines or to be used strictly as a 3rd down pass rusher.

This. I think Stevens will find himself filling more into a LB role next year
Brooks is an absolute animal

Why does everybody want him close to line of scrimmage...is he not good in coverage?

He is a major piece but Sampah, Ojulari (sp), and White are going to wreck offense's next year.

If Aranda were still here, I could give a more informed prediction.
Seeing as we likely go to a 4-3 w/ a new DC, my guess is he’s moved to safety.

Hopefully he'll add 20 pounds before the season starts to be a run stopper.

What you want is Stevens and Brooks playing the Sam and the Will in a 4-3 next year. Speed kills.

The next great defensive player at LSU. Kid has it all.

I thought they wanted him to be like Delpit and play a box safety kind of?
Posted on 1/23/20 at 5:14 pm to cjmeatballs
Depends on what we run. In a 3-4 he’s a box safety. In a 4-3 he’d be a will backer

Brook is known for being an aggressive physical player who can get to and hit a QB or RB and not so much for his coverage skills. He plays like a LB or DE. Problem is he is only 195 lbs. He should be a safety but does anyone know what kind of coverage skills he has. Did he ever play in coverage in high school? He hasn't here at LSU. Hew is always rushing the QB when he is in. Is there a reason he is never in coverage?

MB is going to be 1st team All SEC next year

Yeah but can he cover a WR is the question
