    Weaknesses
    Despite his instincts, credited with 10 touchdowns allowed during time at Florida. Inconsistent ball tracker. Has issues playing both ball and man down the field, and can lose feel with receiver. Tape shows some issues with hip tightness. Balance can be a little spotty and he'll fight his hips when forced to transition suddenly on combination routes. Better coming downhill than playing on his heels. Missed final three games of senior season with broken arm.

    he's also been suspended before
    The Gators announced Friday that safety Marcus Maye, defensive end Alex McCalister and receiver Latroy Pittman won’t play because of an undisclosed violation of program policy.

    Weaknesses:
    • Eye discipline
    • Leads to missed plays downfield
    • Consistent hiccups in coverage that allow big plays
    • Inconsistent tackler
    • Broke his arm in 2016

    Not impressed with the pick

    I like Adams and I actually think that was a great pick, but he isn't a center field ballhawk, neither is Marcus Maye. If you think any of these guys will be that, you're going to disappointed.

    24-6 Petty to Robbie will be good for one TD. At least one of those 17 targets a game he'll get will be good for 55+.

    I agree .. try and sure up the D and keep things close .. then whether we find out Pettenberg is our guy or if we need to draft one again next year we truly add offensive pieces based on their strengths and weaknesses thru feee agency and next years draft.

    Ah well, so we've spent our "broken something in the season prior to the draft token".

    I was hoping the pick was something extremely clever with that live look-in they had on Mac making that "watch me now" face on NFLN. Instead he was making the amnesia "I have no clue" redundancy face.

    Versatile DBs that can cover the middle of the field and tackle are in the highest demand these days

    The NFL continues to become more Patriots like on offense....spread, quick hitters, tight ends, slot and rbs out of the backfield.

    The 2 guys we just drafted are some of the best at defending the modern day NFL offenses

    People saying safety isn't an impact position have obviously not watched the Seahawks with and without kam chancellor

    I like Kamars and Williams but prefer the other Alabama Edge Anderson .. I don't think Mac will draft Williams due to his gun charge.
