Rodney Adams
WR -
Week 5 Outlook
Availability
Chicago Bears WR Rodney Adams had three catches for 89 yards and one touchdown in preseason loss to Bills.
Fantasy Impact
For the second straight week in a row, Adams was the WR that stood out for the Bears. The chunk of Adams' yardage came on a sensational 73 yard TD catch which he caught from Andy Dalton. While the top two WR's for Chicago are set in Allen Robinson and Darnell Mooney, the next spot is up for grabs. If Adams continues to flash like this in the preseason he could have a very good shot at making the final roster and contributing offensively.
The Minnesota Vikings have selected former South Florida wide receiver Rodney Adams with the 170th overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact
Minnesota took a stab at Adams, who could have a difficult time finding a role on the offense. Like many late-round wideouts, special teams will be the key to jump-starting his pro career. However, the Vikings' wide receiver corps is questionable behind Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen, which could open the door for Adams. Still, I'd expect him to open 2017 the No. 4 or No. 5 wideout on the depth chart at best, limiting his fantasy relevance.
