69: situation-dependent

One number for how well Adams has actually played lately, not a talent rating. 70% is the skill profile, weighted towards efficiency; the rest is how steady his games are and whether he still produces against the better defences. Ranked against every qualified wide receiver; 99 is the best. Over the last three seasons he scores 61 (#78 of 121).

The read
  1. Denver are top ten against short, intermediate and deep throws over their last 17 games (8th, 9th, 8th). There's no obvious soft spot for Adams to lean on.
  2. Don't force short throws: they've been Adams's worst return (-0.21 EPA a target), and Denver are 8th there.
  3. Contested catches aren't his edge this week: he's 10th percentile for separation and 63rd for hands, and Riley Moss, Ja'Quan McMillian, Patrick Surtain II and Jahdae Barron all allow fewer yards per target than the average corner (7.4).
  4. Free data doesn't show who covers whom on each snap, so this is the defence's profile, not a confirmed one-on-one.
