As depressing as it is to be a drafting Safety, he's pretty ******* awesome. 

They could have done worse. It's not a sexy pick, but it's a pick that won't hurt us. CB and TE is deep in this one, can still be addressed. 

Gotta unload Sheldon too.

Obviously no offers worth taking for trade back. No surprise.

Best player available and a guy who brings leadership and a needed culture change. 

Who's he going to lead? The rest of the last place in standings and statistics defensive backfield?

 Genius rationalization for a genius pick

Even these guys on TV could see we have assembled the worst roster in football. That doesn't change by taking a safety with the 6th pick. Guess what? We still have the worst roster in the NFL. You fix that by drafting a QB or by accumulating more high picks. But woo-hoo this saves us from spending $6-10m on a FA safety next year. Totally worth it.

Mike "the worst negotiator in history" Maccagnan is yet again incapable of pulling off any trade unless it involves 5 round picks or later.

Not only is he a Brian Dawkins type of player.. the character and leadership in this guy GLOWS off him. I can't believe he was there at 6! We have amazing luck picking #6 Williams now Adams. This guy is a major chess piece for the future. I absolutely LOVE this pick. 

He's a strong safety. Him or Pryor is getting played out of position. Most likely means that Pryor is gone, and we still have a hole at free safety. It's a terrible pick. You draft Hooker and get Reed 2.0 if you need a free safety.

I love the pick. Leadership and productivity at a position of need from a nfl player factory

 

Well done

A Brian Dawkins clone.  LSU said he was the best leader they have ever had in the program.  Day one, he is the second best defender we have.  No more guys late to meetings or slouching about.  

This pick as about the future.  Pryor was never getting his option picked up.  Adams will be one of the top defensive players in the league in three years.
