Kentucky DE Jeremy Jarmon Entering NFL Supplemental Draft


Kevin Greene

Recommended Posts

Pretty good player.

Jarmon was second-team All-SEC a year ago, posting 4.5 sacks and 5.5 tackles for loss. He also dropped into coverage and was given credit for six pass breakups. Jarmon told the Lexington Herald-Leader that he will be heading to Philadelphia to meet with the Eagles. A team that selects Jarmon in any round of the supplemental draft has to give up their corresponding pick in the 2010 NFL Draft.

so if i read write..if you pick him up you have to give up that same pick in the NFL draft the next year...that does not seem worth it.

Giving up next year's pick for this year's player is what we do best.

The Ravens got a steal by getting Jared Gaither with a 5th rounder.

Compare that with the price Carolina paid for Otah.

It depends on how deep in the Supplemental draft he goes. I would imagine the Front Office has evaluated him and set a round they want to take him. If no one else grabs him by our selected round we'll take him. However if Philly evaluated him then they must be serious about grabbing him early, probably too early for us to give up a 3rd or 4th rounder for.

If you rate him as a 3rd, and submit a 4th, and you are the highest, you get a player to play a year early, and get him for less than what he would fetch during the normal draft.

I was begging for Gaither when Balt got him two years ago.

Never understood this.

So after a tiny amount of research, the supplemental draft is for the players who are accademically ineligable for the main draft upon applying to enter. then come the end of the season they have proved their academic eligibility and thus are able to register for the suplemental draft?

IS that right? Is there any other way of qualifying?

It's for the players that are either kicked off the team, ineligible, not able to play for the NCAA....like this one...for drugs.

For whatever the reason, the players are not able to play again, for their conference, team, school...and instead of waiting and missing the NFL season and waiting on the regular draft, they enter the supplemental.

    • Right...I think they've done really well. No one's going to bat 1000% but they've addressed areas of need and there's no comparison to the overall talent of the team now than when DC and then Morgan got the reigns. This whole season is about seeing how much of a step up can Bryce and this team make. If Bryce can't and last year is as good as it gets for him then at least we have a talented roster for the next guy. I think we're going to be good this season 
    • I said could, not would. I recognize he has potential based on past performance. Compared to what KP has done, Howell has more potential and the physical traits to make noise. KP has small hands and a weak arm. Not something you want in even your backup QB.  I've been hammering since last off-season before we re-signed Dalton, improve the room. Other than getting younger, I don't see how anyone can say we legitimately improved the room or even tried. We might as well have signed Josh Rosen.  Dalton is still on the roster for now. That's 3 QBs unless we trade or cut him. He's still Bryce's mentor after all. Do you believe we are going to draft someone with potential and give them a legitimate opportunity to develop from the practice squad? Are we going to carry 3 QBs on the active roster? 4 for a developmental rookie? Are we going to potentially cut KP if we draft a rookie and he's outperformed? Doubtful. Cutting Dalton(if we can't trade him) and KP would be 8m in wasted cap space.  I chose Howell as an example because he showed promise in his only full season as a starter. You could plug in another name with the physical traits and potential and what i said would still apply. KP showed almost nothing and was benched. I genuinely don't care if it’s rookie pick as long as there is the potential to develop into a future NFL QB.  As much as I can't stand him, Bellichek was always developing a number 2 QB even with the GOAT as his starter. The wisdom of that was evident when Cassell came in when Brady was hurt week 1 and went 11-5 and almost made the wildcard, which 11-5 gets you almost any other year. I give credit where it's due though. Cassel and Jimmy G both came into the league as developmental QBs, potential QB1s, and went on to have careers.  You never know if you never try. KP feels like a punt in addressing the most important position on the field. Bryce has never played 2 full games of franchise QB level football back to back.  If Bryce progresses, are you ready to offer a 280m 5 year extension based off a one hit wonder year? If Bryce regresses and we need a QB in 27, are we going to trade a fortune away again to trade up to 1 to get one? Are you ready to do the past 3 years all over again?  To me, it's not about Kenny Pickett. It's about the move itself. It was a feeble attempt to improve the QB room. We better hope Bryce succeeds, because if he doesn't, we literally have no backup plan right now.   
    • IOL that early isn’t good value at all. We have a LT who might not ever be good again and a RT that might retire soon. T seems deep early in this draft, so I’d go there in the 1st.
