Redskins Select Jarmon in 3rd Round of Supplemental Draft

Sit tight. He just passed it to me. You're next.

Also I can't believe I missed the "Puff, Puff, Pass Party."

I don't think this guy is going to be that exceptional. I'm not looking for him to do anything spectacular this coming year.

The only downside is were going to have yet another offseason without our full lineup of draft picks. I personally think that the Skins are a team that need to prove they have the discipline to go one year with keeping all their allotment due to the past aggressive use of draft picks.

???? We DRAFTED this guy. So next April when we don't have this pick to use on draft day we can say we drafted him and got him a year early. We didn't get rid of the pick we just used it early. We still have the same allotment that we had 2 days ago, just one of them has been used.

Totally agree with tis statement. We used a draft pick on a college player one year early. Period. We didn't trade it for a vet or anything else. I live in SEC country now and all ofmy friends are SC Gamecocks fans. They all know who this guy is and seem to think he could be a beast. One of them who knows the most is an Eagles fan and he wishes they had gotten him. Good job front office. nice addition to a D line who is instantly young.

I've tried explaining that 3 times in this thread. Some people don't get it and aren't going to. We're going to hear the same whining next spring about 'we only have 5 picks' even though one of our 6 picks will already have one year of NFL experience.

I really haven't seen him play, just going by what I've read. This is good to hear from people with firsthand knowledge.

True, I'm aware that he's considered a draft pick for next year. But the risk taken on this 3rd round player this year is not the same as a 3rd round pick next year. This guy was in the supplement draft for a reason.

Basically I'm just saying that the Skins are choosing to be risky when they aren't really in the position of dominance to assume that kind of risk.

I can't really say anything to support or be against this move because I have none on this guy beside the reports on him I read.. However, I would have to look at this move as a positive sign for our FO; the reason why we drafted Jarmon is to replace Phillips and Wynn after the 2010 season.. Which is something we rarely do.. I hope the FO will continue this trend..

I guess I can say I'm in waiting-to-see-what-happens mode (pretty much same as everyone else) but I don't think it would be a bust pick for us.. I'm not saying that Jarmon would rise to a great or star player, but I believe he will rise to level where he is serviceable as #1 LDE for years.. Or more..

Supplemental draft, not supplement draft. Freudian slip ;)

How is the risk taken on a 3rd round pick any less next year?

lol...I didn't even see that...

He hasn't played competitive football in a year which is always something that hinders athletic progress. Pacman wasn't the same player when he came back to the Cowboys, I doubt Vick will be, but that is a tangent.

The guy did better earlier in his college career and then his stats trail off. He subsequently gets charged with taking PEDs, not to say he used them for an athletic edge.

If we had the 3rd round pick next year we would have a broad selection of various athletic talents to choose from. We instead used it this year on one risky player who hasn't played within the year.

...I'm not saying it's a terrible thing, I'm just saying that it is risky when a team like the Skins have already used up all of their risk in the recent years.
