2017 NFL Mock Draft: Deshaun Watson & Jabrill Peppers in Top 5 Picks

No. 7 Carolina Panthers: S Jamal Adams


School: LSU


Position: Safety


Class: Junior


Outlook: Just one year removed from their Super Bowl appearance, the Panthers have a lot of holes to fill. Ideally, they would address their offensive line with this early selection but this does not look to be the draft where there is an offensive lineman worth taking inside the top ten. Adams looks like the best safety in the draft and gives Carolina a complete player in the secondary. During his time at LSU, he has shown the ability to cover, tackle and play special teams at a high level. (Getty)
