price tag- ed hartwell + Complete FA list
 

i know he's a restricted free agent but how high would be the pick we'd have to give the ravens if we signed him.if it's only a mid rounder like 3 or4 it's a nobrainer to sign him imo. that'll give us some flexibility on draft day.
don't we get extra draft picks this year as compensation for lost free agents?

price tag- ed hartwell + Complete FA list
 

if we had lost some free agents, then we might have gotten some draft picks but we havent lost anyone just yet....
on the ed hartwell deal, if we signed him, then we would have to give up a 1st round pick, as the ravens have offered him a first round tender

If a team tenders a restricted free agent a first-round offer of $1.368 million, any team that signs that player would have to give up its first-round pick. The highest tender offer is $1.824 million, which triggers compensation of a first- and third-rounder.

Ed Hartwell (Ravens LB), Justin McCareins (Titans WR), Kareem McKenzie (Jets OT), Adrian Wilson (Cardinals S), Mike Gandy (Bears OL), Ryan Diem (Colts OL), Nick Harper (Colts CB), Rick Demulling (Colts OL), Kynan Forney (Falcons OG), Mike McMahon (Lions QB), Will Peterson (Giants CB), Reggie Hayward (Broncos DE), Ben Hamilton (Broncos OG) and Floyd Womack (Seahawks OL) all received first-round tenders.


The highest tenders -- first-and-third rounders -- went to Rams quarterback Marc Bulger, Dolphins defensive end Adewale Ogunleye and Bengals halfback Rudi Johnson.

Among the more interesting low tenders are Falcons linebacker Matt Stewart (available for a fourth-round choice), Ravens guard Bennie Anderson (no compensation), Cardinals cornerback Renaldo Hill (seventh-round choice), Ravens defensive tackle Marques Douglas (no compensation), Broncos guard-center Ben Hamilton (fourth round), Packers linebacker Torrance Marshall (third-rounder), Texans defensive tackle Jerry DeLoach (no compensation), Giants tight end Marcellus Rivers (no compensation), 49ers tight end Eric Johnson (seventh-rounder) and Redskins fullback Bryan Johnson (no compensation).
