Finally, a name I had never heard before.

PLAYER OVERVIEW: Montravius Adams

One of the top defensive line recruits a few years ago, Adams started 10 games as a sophomore in 2014 and led the team in quarterback hurries (17), adding 8.0 tackles for loss, 3.0 sacks and 43 total tackles.
With the Tigers' crowded defensive tackle depth chart in 2014, Adams split snaps on the edge and inside, but with Gabe Wright, Angelo Blackson, Jeffrey Whitaker and Ben Bradley no longer on the roster, Adams is now a veteran on the line and a player the Auburn coaches have high expectations for in 2015.

STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES

He carries his 296-pound frame very well with the initial quickness and lateral agility to attack gaps and penetrate the backfield. Adams has been dinged for his lack of consistency in the past, but new defensive coordinator Will Muschamp should be able to get the best out of the gifted lineman.
