With the 6th pick in the 2017 NFL draft, the New York Jets selected safety Jamal Adams. At first, that looked like a home run of a pick as Adams netted 2 Pro Bowls, a first team All Pro designation, and a second team All Pro designation by the end of his third year with the team.
After that it went quite south, as Adams publicly feuded with the team. He asked to be traded for several months before the team eventually granted his request, sending him to the Seattle Seahawks. Things didn't go too well for Adams in Seattle after his first year due to a rash of injuries which have since put his career on the brink.
Adams and the Jets have recently found themselves back in the news following an appearance the now 29 year old safety made on "The Jets Lounge." podcast. On it, Adams spoke for two hours, and among other things, said that returning to the Jets would be "a dream come true."
Admittedly, the Jets safety room could use an influx of some talent given that their current projected starters are Tony Adams and Andre Cisco, who are far from locks to be plus players in their own right. Whether Jamal Adams is better is a massive question mark, but the cost to bring him in will likely be zero for all practical purposes and it is possible that he finds a spark of what once made him great.
What do you think? Should the Jets let bygones be bygones and bring back Jamal "Prez" Adams?
