Scouting Report: Strengths
- Fights for extra yardage and is reliable in short-yardage situations.
- He’s a creative runner, finding cut-back lanes and often looking like a return specialist on some of his longer runs.
- Brock aggressively finishes runs and consistently falls forward in a crowd. His low pad level and a bit of wiggle keep him from absorbing big hits.
- Brock has the flexible ankles to turn the corner and get around the perimeter when the opportunity presents itself.
- Difficult to bring down one-on-one in space, regularly sidesteps would-be tacklers and uses offhand to use oncoming defenders' momentum against them without slowing down significantly.
- Well-built with a thick frame and powerful lower body which keeps his legs pumping through contact. Patient behind the line of scrimmage, allowing blocks to create openings, and looks for cutback lanes with accurate vision. Hits the hole hard and runs with power to get the tough yards and a physical attitude.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- His hands are good, but Brock doesn’t show much feel as a route runner and might not be a guy you flex out wide.
- He’s good on screen and swing passes, but he doesn’t have the route-running feel to be the kind of back you flex out.
- He’s good in space, but he doesn’t show much nuance as a route runner; he’s not necessarily a threat when he’s flexed out.
