Jarmon

Jarmon was acquired for Jabar Gaffney last July. The former third-round supplemental pick was subsequently waived at final cuts and re-signed to a futures contract in January. Jarmon has been unproductive through three seasons in the NFL.

In late July, the Broncos traded Jabar Gaffney for Jarmon. Jarmon was waived at final cuts, spending the season on Denver’s practice squad, while Gaffney turned in a 68-catch, 947-yard campaign in D.C. Jarmon entered the league as an end, but will try to make it as a defensive tackle in 2012 training camp.

Jarmon, only 21 after the NCAA disallowed him from finishing out his career at Kentucky, will compete for snaps with declining vets Renaldo Wynn and Phillip Daniels. Washington will likely employ a heavy rotation at left end.

Jarmon has the build of an every-down end, and the production was there (nine sacks) as a sophomore. But he would’ve needed a big rebound from his down junior year. Still, it appears he could be a third- or fourth-round Supplemental pick if he can convince teams he isn’t an off-field problem.

The draft is July 16 and Jarmon will hold a Pro Day on July 9. Listed at 6'3/277, Jarmon possesses ideal size to play defensive end in a 4-3 scheme. Unfortunately, he was not very productive as a junior, amassing just 4.5 sacks and 10 tackles for loss in 2008. He’ll be a mid-round pick if he’s lucky.

The UK staff was very disappointed in the decision and considered Jarmon a good kid. He’d already earned his bachelor’s degree and appeared poised for a big senior year. Jarmon is scheduled to visit the Eagles on Tuesday.

It’s an outstanding time considering Jarmon weighed in at 6'3/280. He’ll likely want to be a shade lighter for his July 9 personal Pro Day. Other prospects for the July 16 Supplemental Draft include Florida State WR Corey Surrency and Central Michigan OT Joe McMahon. Surrency is having a Pro Day on June 30.

Calling Jarmon “a very good football player,” Lombardi says he’s spoken to at least four different personnel men that are high on the Kentucky defensive end. Jarmon would fit nicely as a developmental left end in a 4-3 scheme.

Dixon had nine sacks as a junior playing opposite Cowboys fourth-round pick Brandon Williams. This will be one of the top Supplemental drafts in years with FSU WR Corey Surrency, Southern Miss WR Torris Magee, Kansas State WR Deon Murphy, Central Michigan OT Joe McMahon, and Western Kentucky LB Blake Boyd also eligible. Jarmon could go as high as the third round after running between 4.75 and 4.84 at 6'3/278 during last week’s Pro Day.

Detroit wants help at strong-side end, which would be Jarmon’s best position fit at this level. ESPN’s John Clayton calls Jarmon a fourth-round prospect.
