FanHouse Jeremy Jarmon

The Washington Redskins landed Kentucky defensive end Jeremy Jarmon in Thursday's NFL supplemental draft, coughing up a third-round pick in 2010 for the former Wildcat.

Jarmon was ruled ineligible for the 2009 NCAA season after testing positive for a banned substance in February, then losing an appeal of that decision in May.

In three years at Kentucky, Jarmon recorded 121 tackles and 17 sacks. He had his most productive campaign in 2007, notching 57 tackles and nine sacks.

Update (2:10 p.m. ET): The Redskins landed Jarmon for a third-round pick in 2010. No word yet if any other players were awarded out.

For a sport as wildly popular as pro football, the annual NFL supplemental draft is about as under the radar as it gets. This year's version features eight players that, for varying reasons, did not declare for April's draft but then lost or gave up their college eligibility.

Anyone who uses a Free Agent Acquisition Budget to play fantasy sports will find the supplemental draft process fairly familiar.

Prior to Thursday afternoon's "draft," each NFL team's general manager submitted an e-mail to the league, listing which players they'd like to bid on. Those bids include what round the team would like to "select" a player in -- if a team is awarded a player in the 2009 supplemental draft, it forfeits it corresponding pick in the 2010 NFL draft.

Update (July 16): The Redskins were awarded Jarmon in the supplemental draft, using a 2010 third-round pick to secure him.

The NFL Supplemental Draft typically doesn't have a lot of names connected to it. The design of the supplemental draft was to give guys who have lost their eligibility a chance to latch on to a professional team without having to wait up of ten months to get drafted.

Rarely are there more than a couple notable players involved, and this year is no exception. The supplemental draft seems like the perfect situation for Kentucky defensive end Jeremy Jarmon, and he will attempt to take advantage of it.
