Redskins Showing Interest in Kentucky DE Jeremy Jarmon

[SmootSmack]

We talked about him a few weeks ago, here's some more recent news

UK's Jarmon attracts 18 NFL teams to workout | KentuckySports.com

I don't know much about him personally. Is he worth a flyer? How high of a pick is he worth?

After signing Haynesworth and drafting Orakpo, you would think Redskins are done with D-line.. If it wouldn't cost us a high round, then I wouldn't complain I guess.. After all, more than half of the league checked him out..

If we try to accquire Jarmon, then does this mean Redskins seems to be set on playing Orakpo as LB?

You can never have too many effective pass rushers. If he makes the team better, sign him.

I suppose we should ask ourselves what round pick would make the fanbase have another one of those Vinny is a complete freakin moron reactions!

My bet is a 4th round pck would be really testing the integrity of the dam and a 3rd rounder would unleash the beast.

Jarmon is worth a 5th at best, but I have a gut feeling Vinny's gonna outbid and give up a 4th and maybe (I hope not) a 3rd. If we do get him I think we'd cut Buzbee.

sounds about right to me

correct me if i am wrong. last year we had a chance to use a pick on the RT in balt. i dnt remember what they used to grad him, but i do recall he had bagage. the kid turned into a surprise and a beast at RT fot the ravens. i would use a 3rd if we have one avaible. then next year we focous on the offensive line, plus the kid would come cheap.

Same as Mattyk72.

Depending on the pick we give I wouldn't getting him. He's a little small (6'3 277) but he was named All-SEC (first team) by Rivals.com (2007)
All-SEC (second team) by SEC coaches (2007)
Univ Kentucky Co-Most Outstanding Defensive Player (2007) so he has some talent.

I believe he was 3rd on Kentucky's career sack list also after his junior year. Vinny likes him so.........if we could get him for a 6th, I'd say go for it, but he will probably go higher considering he had a good workout. Great sophmore year. Not so good junior year.

That's how I see it. 18 teams went to his workout so there's probably a higher bidder than us, but it could happen that we get him in the 6th or 7th.

Huh? That's about the prototypical size for a DE coming out of college. Anywhere in the 270 and above range is not small for a college DE.

Orakpo at 260 is a little small for DE.

The height not the weight. If you read my first post, I said "small" referring to his height. My bad for not making that clear enough for you.

Here is a good description of how the supplemental draft works from the article

The supplemental draft is done via e-mail. Each team submits to the league the names of the players they are interested in, as well as the round of the supplemental draft they would like to choose them in. The team that submits the highest bid is awarded rights to the player. If more than one team bids a pick from the same round, the team with the highest pick in the round wins out. If a team uses a pick in the supplemental draft, they must forfeit their choice in the corresponding round of the next year's regular draft.
