Adrian Amos, S, Bears (5th round, 142nd overall)

With hits like this, people aren’t soon going to forget who Adrian Amos is…

Pegged before the draft as one of many in an average class of safeties, Amos has been a pleasant surprise for Chicago and a possible building block for the future of this secondary. The Bears’ coaching staff has loved what they’ve seen out of Amos so far this season, and the former Penn State star has certainly entrenched himself in the lineup for the foreseeable future. Right now his impact is being felt as a downhill player, mostly, but he has the potential to grow into a complete player at the safety position.
