1974 Rookie Profile: Bobby Brooks

Defensive Back
11th Round
Bishop College
"He's highly regarded by Giant scout Emlen Tunnell who thinks Brooks has the potential to make it in the NFL. Big and strong, he played the safety position for three seasons at little Bishop College in Dallas, and got his best ratings overall from scouts for his strength and tackling, and ability to come up and turn sweeps to the inside. Usually assigned to cover opponents' top pass receivers, he did an adequate job but will need work on overall coverages. He could be a valuable special teams player in the pro ranks.
Born in Dallas, he played his scholastic football at I.M. Terrell High School in Dallas. Bobby has 4.7 speed for the 40 and fine range."
