Con: Losing a leader
Adams is a leader in every sense of the word. Whether it be on the field or off it, Adams sets an example and is there for his fellow teammates.
As Matt Forte said when Adams was a rookie, the LSU product has an alpha dog mentality. Adams is not a selfish superstar that puts himself above the team. He is the ultimate team player and does whatever is needed of him.
What makes Adams elite goes far beyond his production on the field. His leadership is what sets him apart. If the Jets decided to trade him, his presence will be sorely missed at One Jets Drive.
