Jets Select Jamal Adams No. 6 Overall in 2017 NFL Draft

The pick is in! With the No. 6 overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, the New York Jets have selected Jamal Adams to bolster their defensive secondary. For months now fans of the Jets have speculated what the franchise planned to do and all along, they knew Adams was the man to target to usher in a new era of the franchise.

Since the Jets are rebuilding, this was a smart pick that they can wisely build upon in the future. It’s hard to believe the Jets will field a competitive team this upcoming season due to how tough their schedule is, but now their defense should be able to at least be somewhat competitive.
