Scouting Report:
"Extremely undersized for the position, Adams had success at Oregon despite just one season within its scheme. He doesn't have optimal anticipation or field vision and missed big play opportunities as they were opening. Adams can hit deep balls on scramble throws and won't take unnecessary chances, but teams might pass on him due to 'system and size' concerns. I wouldn't close the door on his chances to make a team due to athleticism and play-making potential in packaged plays." - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
