This! I hope this is our plan of attack. With Bradberry, Worley and Johnson, Coleman and Adams back there, our secondary would arguably be the best we've had in a looong time. Young, athletic, long and forceful. Hooker is a nice consolation prize but Adams is the better fit with Coleman sliding back to FS, where Hooker would block that from happening. 

TBH, I think Adams will go top-5, so I'm honestly leaning more towards a Jonathan Cyprien signing in FA and then drafting Barnett or Fournette at 8.

I would really like Adams in 1. If he's gone, I hope we take a long look at Justin Evans in round 2

Jamal adams is amazing both in his play and in his characteristics. Would love to have him or fournette round 1. Cannot go wrong with one of the LSU men in the top 10

Who else would be ok if we double-dip at safety with Jamal Adams and Budda Baker?

Don't be stupid. Way too early for this

What's so stupid about it? Two really good players and we are thin in the secondary. There could be scenarios where both guys are BPA when we pick.

Any NC State fans in here that can speak a little bit on Josh Jones?

Adams fits our team better right now and would be a great first round pick.  I happen to think Hooker is the better prospect.  He's the true center field safety that you find very rarely.  He erases coverage mistakes made by others (just like Luke Kuechly) and he creates turnovers by surprising QBs with his athleticism.  Hooker would gives us the flexibility to vary our defensive coverages - he can do everything from man up against TEs, man up against slot receivers, and play center field in a cover 3 look (opening up more blitz diversity).

I would be thrilled with either Safety, but Hooker is my favorite prospect in this class.  Safeties tend to last longer than you'd think, so I'm hoping he's there at 8.
