Jets' top-heavy draft class features safeties Jamal Adams, Marcus Maye

The New York Jets' 2017 draft class produced two day one starters and three backups this season. Two picks saw their seasons ruined by injuries, and another two were essentially "redshirted," which means it'll be easier to get a better feel for the entire class in 2018.

Grade: Above average

Best rookie: Safety Jamal Adams. Drafted sixth overall, the former LSU star won a starting spot in the spring and played the entire season, missing only 15 snaps. The Jets believe Adams has Pro-Bowl potential. So does Adams, who vowed on Twitter never to miss another Pro Bowl.
