Jonathan "Baby Metcalf" Adams Jr. WR, Arkansas State

I was waiting for the zone's draft gurus to make a thread for this kid but I guess they're not too high/impressed with him so here you go. He's one of my favorite draft sleeper to compete for KB's WR3 spot. He seems like a good fit for KS's offense. Most scouting reports I read, scouts were mainly concerned about his playing speed but I don't see it as a problem, this kid is a go-getter. Arkansas State Pro Day Numbers (per Rotoviz) Height: 75 inches (6'3) Weight: 218 pounds Forty-Yard Dash: 4.48 seconds Vertical Jump: 41.5 inches Broad Jump: 126 inches Three-Cone Drill: 6.9 seconds Twenty-Yard Shuttle: 4.13 seconds - Rotoviz scouting report on Adams. Not many people watch Arkansas State games, but for those who do his size/speed/agility combo isn't surprising. Adams finished his career with a 56th% Adjusted Production Index and was one of the most dominant scoring receivers in the country with a dozen touchdowns on 79 receptions in 2020. *Day 3 steal IMO *Deep threat *Redzone threat *Very physical *Strong hands *Strong blocker *Uses his basketball background very well to box out CBs on those contested catches. Give him a 50/50 ball and he'll come down with it. Lead all WRs in contested catches(23) this season. Niners are obviously interested. 49ers Scout, Justin Chabot, said he wanted to see @ItsJayAdams High Point a ball in the end zone. Little did he know, that's Jay's favorite thing to do ha! Pretty sure this play sums it up! Shoutout to Coach @logankilgore for tossing the dime! @RWRCRadio #BlueRaiderToRedWolf pic.twitter.com/5ck36yIUrL— J.C.

Baby DK or TO 2.0. He's about the same size as TO. Just a big and physical WR that catches everything thrown his way. Nice prospect!

I like what I see. The athleticism is definitely there. This kid could be a freak. Seems hungry to succeed . Go get em Kyle.

Good find. Every catch is contested and he's coming down with the ball. Like what I see
