Amare Adams

Powerful, athletic front-line defender who consistently displays explosive first-step juice with speed-to-power ability. Flashes a potent get-off and typically stays low to quickly win leverage. Gets his hands up to disrupt passing lanes. Shows throw-around strength when isolated 1-on-1. Capable of stack-and-shed disengagement and can still get more consistent extension to further enhance that ability. Broad pursuit range for a hand-on-the-ground defender pushing 300 pounds. Shows redirecting ability that reflects early high school lateral testing data. Also plays basketball, including on the AAU circuit, and functional athleticism shows in pads. Posted encouraging shot put reps (47-3.5) as a junior. Gained valuable two-way experience earlier in high school career. Solid production in volume, but impact stats can increase to reflect those typically seen from similar elite D-linemen. Possesses the physical and athletic traits to enhance pass-rushing repertoire with expanded move set. Projects as a high-major impact defender with the evidence on tape, three-sport athletic profile, and two-way experience that mirror recent NFL Draft early-round candidates.
