With the 133rd pick of the ROD Mock Draft, the San Francisco 49ers pick K Roberto Aguayo. With TE Adams getting taken a couple spots before us, we decide to fill a hole on the team with the nations top kicker. Typically a fourth is high for a kicker. But he's well worth the selection

Noooooooooo. I hope you get food poisoning damn you. Just kidding. Great pick here. Really hoped he would make it to me.

Nice!! haha. I can't believe he made it this far. I have him going in the 3rd to high 4th. I must admit I overlooked him for my earlier pick this round. Very happy to see him drop to this pick. He will end the unsuccessful Cook expreiment in GB by mid season.

PLAYER OVERVIEW
Adams finished his career as a Gamecock with 66 receptions for 977 yards and seven touchdowns, not bad for a player Steve Spurrier thought might play defense.



Adams was a highly coveted four-star recruit (Summerton (S.C.)/Scotts Branch High School), where he played quarterback, tight end, linebacker and defensive end. He even was the team's punter. Adams also started on the basketball team as a power forward. He signed with South Carolina, but had to spend the 2011 season at Fork Union (Va.) Military Academy before re-signing with the Gamecocks in 2012.



During his first season in Columbia, Adams was a freshman All-SEC tight end after catching four passes for 90 yards and a score in nine games. In 2013, he played in all 13 games, starting once. Adams caught 13 passes for 187 yards and two touchdown receptions. In 2014, his production rose once again, catching 21 passes for 279 yards and one touchdown.



In 2015, Adams was the team's second-leading receiver with 28 receptions for 421 yards and three touchdowns.

STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES
STRENTHS: Long and rangy tight end prospect who runs well. He starred as a power forward in high school and still looks the part with his frame and build. Adams is deceptively fast for his size because of long stride. He's already tall (6-6) but even a bigger target because of his outstanding length.


Adams can line up in-line next to a tackle, off-set or split out. He uses his size to his advantage, whether it's putting his body on a defender or showing a large catch radius. His route-running is solid and he can create separation out of his breaks. At his best with the ball in the air because he can go get it. He has soft hands and shows the ability to pluck the ball right out of the air.



Does a good job at the point of attack in the run game. Not necessarily a powerful drive blocker but he does a nice job of moving his feet and using his big body to steer defenders away from the action to create a running lane.



WEAKNESSES: While Adams has good size, especially his height and long arms, he will certainly need to add bulk and strength to his frame to compete in today's NFL. He will also need to be more physical at the point of attack in the run game with his blocking. Added weight and strength would definitely help him there.



Also needs to continue to sharpen his route-running skills. For a big man Adams shows he runs very well, but added quickness would help. At times he does look a tad stiff.



COMPARES TO: Ladarius Green, San Diego Chargers - At this stage of his career, Adams is very similar to Green. They are roughly the same size and build, though Adams may be a tad faster.



IN OUR VIEW: Adams is an intriguing prospect simply because of his combination of size, speed and hands. Certainly, he will have a chance to wow NFL scouts during the pre-draft process. On the other hand, he didn't exactly light the SEC on fire and finished with a modest body of work. (Sth Carolina hardly set the world on fire!!)
