Brandon Brooks Madden Career 2013-2022 - Peak 93 OVR

Brandon Brooks came out of Miami of Ohio in the third round of the 2012 draft and grew into one of the most powerful interior blockers of his time. He gave the Texans four seasons, then signed with Philadelphia in 2016 and became a cornerstone of the Eagles line that bulldozed the way to Super Bowl LII, a 41-33 win over New England. He earned three straight Pro Bowl selections from 2017 through 2019, missing the 2018 game only because his team was busy winning the championship.

Brooks also did something rare for a lineman: he spoke publicly about a stress-related anxiety disorder that at times caused game-day vomiting, and he refused to hide it. Two torn Achilles tendons cost him 31 games late in his career, and he retired in January 2022 before earning a Wharton MBA. His rating climbed from a 67 rookie mark in the 2012 edition to 83 once he arrived in Philadelphia, topping out at 93 in both the 2018 and 2020 games.
