Missouri’s Kentrell Brothers led the nation in tackles in 2015 with 152, and earned first-team All-SEC and second-team All-American honors. But there are some questions about Brothers as a pro prospect.
Gridironnow’s Amanda Borges breaks down the pros and cons of Brothers as an NFL linebacker.
Brothers gets high marks for his instincts: He finds the ball and gets there. He also understands pass coverages and has good patience. He’s a physical player who can make an impact on special teams coverage.
While he was extremely productive in his final two seasons at Mizzou – a combined 274 tackles – his lack of height (he’s 6 feet 0 and 249 pounds) and athleticism worry some NFL scouts.
