If you are using a sleeping bag you can put the pad inside the sleeping bag to prevent it from moving around. Pads aren't the best with a hammock but they do work and it's much better than being on the ground on a pad. I'd be more concerned about getting a double layer hammock if you had a top quilt since that won't hold the pad in place as well as a sleeping bag. Once I went to an under quilt I haven't worried about a double layer hammock ever since. Two layers adds to the weight and bulk and doesn't provide much of a benefit for the penalty. I still own a DL hammock, I just don't use it for backpacking anymore. I guess it might provide some benefit against bugs but only if it was hot enough to sleep without any under insulation and if you go with the Fronkey net, it basically covers the bottom of the hammock anyways so a DL isn't needed. Just my thoughts...
