Adams is easy to overlook playing opposite Puka Nacua, but he's a red-zone machine: 60 catches in 2025 (first Rams year) put him at No. 16 on career catch list with 1,017; another 60-catch season would put him in top 10. More importantly, he pulled in 14 TDs in only 14 games last season and ranks seventh in career TD receptions with 117. He's led the league in TDs three times with three different teams (Packers, Raiders, Rams). Adams had nine TDs inside the five-yard line last season (only Dallas Goedert had more than four); per ESPN's Bill Barnwell, he was open for at least four or five more but let down by poor throws, pressure, and drops. Per ESPN's Mike Clay, Adams' 27 end-zone targets were nine more than any other player; he now sits second in that category (148) since entering the league in 2014. Despite working opposite Nacua, Adams finished WR9 overall last season—his ninth top-10 campaign in past 10 seasons. The source feels great landing Adams at his WR22 ADP in the fourth round (46th overall) given his long history of WR1 production and the potent Rams offense.PositiveValueJul 1, 2026
Adams' WR22 ADP in the fourth round (46th overall) represents significant value given his long history of WR1 production. He finished WR9 overall in 2025 despite playing opposite Puka Nacua in a potent Rams offense, marking his ninth top-10 campaign in his past 10 seasons. Adams ranks seventh in career touchdown receptions with 117 and has led the league in touchdowns three times across three different teams (Packers, Raiders, Rams). In 2025, he pulled in 14 touchdown passes in only 14 games with nine of those inside the five-yard line, and was open for at least four or five more that were let down by poor throws, pressure, and drops, suggesting touchdown upside remains. He led the league with 27 end-zone targets in 2025, nine more than any other player, and now sits second all-time in that category (148) since entering the league in 2014; Matthew Stafford has consistently targeted him in high-leverage situations near the goal line.
