NFL Announces Compensatory Draft Choices

Saints receive one compensatory pick.

The number of picks a team receives equals the net loss of compensatory free agents up to a maximum of four. The 32 compensatory choices announced today will supplement the 221 choices in the seven rounds of the 2011 NFL Draft (April 28-30), which will kick off in primetime for the second consecutive year.

I can't remember the last time the Saints received a compensatory pick. I'll take it. It appears that it will be pick 242 after the 7th round and while it might not warrant celebrating with champagne it is one more pick. Let's hope that the Saints can continue the trend of picking up late round gems. And maybe some early round studs as well.
