2017 NFL mock draft: Mel Kiper says Jaguars pick Jamal Adams

ESPN’s Mel Kiper, Jr. has another mock draft out and the Jacksonville Jaguars are (again) picking LSU safety Jamal Adams with the No. 4 overall pick — just as he had the team doing in his January mock draft.

Kiper even admits that this is a high slot for a safety, but that Adams is worth the reach.

4. Jacksonville Jaguars, 3-13

This might be a high draft slot for the traditional version of safety, but Adams is more than that. He's a true hybrid who never has to come off the field, because he can run extremely well and cover but also is a beast as an in-the-box defender. The Giants saw Landon Collins break out this year, and Adams has that kind of potential.

No, no, and no.

You don’t pick a safety top-five. That’s how 3-13 teams stay 3-13. You have gaping holes at left tackle, tight end, running back, and defensive end. Picking a traditional safety should be way down the totem pole of priorities for this regime.

What do you think? Is Jamal Adams even a consideration here? Or does Tom Coughlin go with a guy who better fits the value you’re supposed to get from the No. 4 overall pick?
