Jamal Adams
Before signing with LSU in 2014, Adams ranked as the second-best safety prospect in the country as a four-star recruit from Hebron High School in Texas. He developed nicely in Baton Rouge before becoming the Jets’ sixth-overall pick in 2016.
What the scouting report got right: “Has the good size and toughness you look for at the position and plays with a fast and physical style. … Smart and instinctive defender which leads to good production in zone schemes. … Strong run supporter who gets down into the box quickly and in attack mode.”
What the scouting report got wrong: Nothing. Evaluators scouted Adams pretty much flawlessly out of high school.
