Jarrett is 25-years-old and should only continue to get better. The Atlanta Falcons defensive tackle cracks the top-10 of 2019 free agents based both on potential and what he’s already shown.

The 2015 fifth-round pick tied a Super Bowl record with three sacks on New England Patriots, Tom Brady during the Falcons’ loss in Super Bowl 51. Entering a contract year in 2018, Jarrett did not disappoint, recording seven sacks and getting a 91 defensive grade from Pro Football Focus.

Jarrett’s clutch ability to disrupt a play on crucial downs has been on full display the last two seasons and that’s a major reason why he is in line for a huge contract this offseason. Atlanta may not even risk the chance of losing their star interior pass rusher by slapping the franchise tag on him.
