My question is, should I purchase an ADCO, or other cover, and use it to cover a Pop Up during the winter months?  The Pop Up is located in NC, and will be on a shaded, concrete pad.  Will there be an issue with trapped moisture inside the Pop Up due to possible lack of air circulation?  Any other concerns I should be worried about?

I am not too worried about any rubbing or chaffing on the exterior of the Pop Up.

I had a 1984 Coleman popup until I gave it to my daughter and son in law in 2006. After 22 years of being covered in Chicago winters, the pop up was still in great condidtion. No moisture accumulation and the outside had not lost it's color. Even the canvas is holding up well.
I'd say cover it.
