Well, we'd be doing that either way I suppose. :)

I really don't know what to think, but seems high to me too. After this off-season, if our D takes even a small step back, I will be pretty disappointed.

I also don't expect him to do much this year, but if he is groomed to replace Daniels with Orakpo taking Carters spot next year, we may have done a sweet deal for the next 5-7 years.

That was my thought as well.

Yehh a little high of a pick in my opinion, but he should be a solid player in his 2nd season. Atleast we wont be drafting defensive line for the next few yrs.....

A few thoughts:

1) Orakpo is our starting SLB for the forseeable future. He'll line up at DE no more than 20% of the time. So you think Vinny, Zorn and Blache are all lying about him playing DE in passing situations?
2) Renaldo Wynn and Alex Buzbee will be unemployed within 2 months.
3) I'm not terribly concerned about losing the 3rd rounder next year. I think Jarmon qualifies as 3rd round talent that we got for a 3rd rounder a year early. If we had wanted to select him in the 3rd round in THIS years draft (had he been eligible), we would have had to trade next years 2nd. Instead, we're geting him for a 3rd rounder a year earlier than we would have otherwise.
4) Why did Cerrato openly pimp this guy to the media last week? I'll tell you why - he wanted fans to get pumped up for this guy, so we would be less angry when we announced we were giving up a 3rd rounder for him. Conspiracy much?
5) We only have 5 draft picks next year. Most of our division rivals have twice that. Only Philly has additional picks, 2 extra. If we don't make any trades we will net 6 players from the 2010 draft but will have an extra years experience out of one of them.
6) If we have a bad season, Zorn, Campbell, and Cerrato will all be gone next year.Nobody is going to dispute that
I don't see how this can be viewed as a bad move. We're going to have another player this season and while we're not using this pick in April we're still going to have our 2010 3rd round pick on the roster.

IMO your logic is sound. I would want to give Z another year if we improved even modestly. A lot of talk has been going around about Z and Soup's future being intermingled. I think, as you suggest, that Z, Soup, and Cousin Vinny's future all depends on the team doing well this year. This pick will not impress me until I see him on gameday, Orakpo too. I'm just waiting for the receivers to step up.

I think that's where Edwin Williams comes in. Atleast I hope so.

I wonder if this seals Orakpo as just a SLB in the long run.

Please, please, please, let's use every other 2010 pick on the offensive line. At least the #1 and #2.


More likely it seals Orakpo at RE instead of LE long term. Jarmon on the other hand is our Daniels reincarnated. I love though how they're infusing youth on the D-Line. Now if they could only do the same thing on the O-Line. It looks though like either Daniels or Wynn is going to be released before the season starts. Still it's awesome considering the youth movement we got on the D-line. We now have five guys under 28 that will be contributing for years to come (Orakpo, Jarmon, Monty, Kedric, and Haynesworth).

From the RI blog based on what that scout said, a 3rd for this guy was expected. Going into it I thought 3rd was too high, but Vinny tends to rate some players much higher than the nfl scouting norm, so I'm not too surprised.

In most years 3rd round has a lot of good players that make teams & start eventually. As was mentioned by several others this is like an advance on the draft, so if he can play this year that's a serious bonus. If he can play next year it's still a bonus.

Right on. We went into the offseason needing youth and talent upgrades on both lines. The DL has now been refurbished in a good way. Although our OL still makes me nervous, you can't fix everything in one offseason I guess.

Well we do know that he'll make the team. All of Godfather Vinnie's picks make the team. I don't know anything about this guy but hey if he is 2nd round talent, great. It is a need for our team.
