After signing Haynesworth and drafting Orakpo, you would think Redskins are done with D-line.. If it wouldn't cost us a high round, then I wouldn't complain I guess.. After all, more than half of the league checked him out..
If we try to accquire Jarmon, then does this mean Redskins seems to be set on playing Orakpo as LB?
You can never have too many effective pass rushers. If he makes the team better, sign him.

I guess I wouldn't have a big problem giving up a 4th or 5th.
Why would anyone have a problem with that? We usually throw those away for guys who wear T-shirts on Sunday.

I'd consider giving up a 5th, especially the way we draft late in rounds. I'd rather have this guy than Cody Glenn. Other than a few exceptions we haven't drafted that well past the 3rd. Not that other teams are much better and I do think we've been doing better lately, but it still feels like we miss more than other teams.
2005
4. Manuel White, FB, UCLA (120th overall)
5. Robert McCune, ILB, Louisville (154th overall)
6. Jared Newberry, OLB, Stanford (183rd overall)
7. Nehemiah Broughton, FB, The Citadel (222nd overall)
2004
5. Mark Wilson, OT, California - 151st overall
6. Jim Molinaro, OT, Notre Dame - 180th overall
2003
7. Gibran Hamdan, QB, Indiana - 232nd overall
Do we know what Cody Glenn brings to the table yet? He was recruited as a runningback and converted to LB so his athleticism is going to be pretty good. I know he didn't make the best first impression but give the guy a chance. What if he turns into an Antonio Pierce type guy? You never know.

This will be a waste pick unless you have a extra pick to use don't do it. We have plenty of D-Lineman in camp we don't need to add 1 more practice squad player.

Saw this on RI - does anyone know about this guy and is he worth using a supplemtal pick on?
It might also make sense for the Redskins to take an extended look at Central Michigan OT Joe McMahon, whose academic struggles forced him to enter the supplemental draft.

From what I understand, he's kind of a jack of all trades/master of none type of lineman. He can fill in anywhere along the interior most likely in the NFL and could make a career out of it as a backup (or backup to the backup), but probably not starter material.
Blake Boyd (LB from Western Kentucky) is an interesting prospect, but he's really a 3-4 LB. Otherwise, we don't need to spend a draft pick on any of the WRs and I don't want McKinner Dixon.
I guess I'd be ok with a 4th for Jarmon, though it wouldn't be my preference.

WTEM is reporting we just took him in the 3rd round of the supplemental draft
