Agreed

Outstanding

Good deal...one to go! It's the big boy!

Just need some guys that were drafted around Orakpo to get signed and his deal will fall into place quickly.

anyone know how his contract stacks up with other "3rd rounders?" It might be an interesting point that by getting this guy in the supplemental draft and using our pick a year early, we're actually saving money because of the annual jump of the salaries, i.e. a 2009 3rd rd pick is cheaper than a 2010 3rd rd pick.

i really like the personality and mind set of this jarmon kid from everything ive read. seemed like he was a good student, hard worker, quality person even did some college plays.

just comes across so far as a well grounded appreciative guy who will hold himself accountable, seems like he he set the example for on the field and off the field stuff for the wildcats too.

i just really like humble hard working players like this (i think orakpo is also of the same mind set - quality person who only wants to live breath and think football)

good job by the skins in drafting talent and dedication.

go skins!!

Getting Jarmon signed is a relief! Now all we need is a big improvement in the O-line. I know I keep saying this, and I hate to state the obvious, but we're in for a losing season if we don't get stronger there.

Jarmon it......no? Too much of a stretch?

[NYCskinfan82]

Great news, now sign Orakpo.

Not necessarily. As long as someone prior to him gets signed they can pretty much figure out what he will make and the top two plus one other has been signed prior to his draft spot. I'm betting it's just finalizing the finer details

See, I know this is the weak spot, and it's worth mentioning, right after the draft, but at that the same time, who could the FO have brought in that would have made a huge upgrade? Who could they bring in now?

Since you keep saying it, I will keep saying my counterpoint. Our Line is deep (except Samuels) with mid level talent. Teams have won with lesser lines, and every position has a backup who can come in and maintain the level(I am kinda giving E. Williams (C) a boost here, but I don't think he would be a noticeable drop from Rabach). If after one or 2 preseason games, we see we don't have a player to sub in for Samuels, we will have to look at the other teams cuts, but overall, we should be able to plug and chug with the best of the teams. This is different then last year when our 1st line was tattered(Kendall Thomas Heyer), and our second line couldn't keep up (Jansen and Geisinger). Our First line is younger (fresher) and our second is more able. This is my belief, with the understanding that a backup LT will be an invaluable pickup at some point (Levi Jones after he knows he's not gonna start for some other team and lowers his pay req'ts)
