We lost Bushrod and Ellis and Signed Harolson and Lewis... Its a wash.... No compensation needed.

Oak, we traded a 7th round pick for Parys Haralson...



But you're right in that the NFL Voodudes are counting Keenan Lewis, Victor Butler, and Kenyon Coleman against us...



My issue is the compensation that Baltimore got over some of the other teams...



Cut players don't factor either; what I disagree with is the NFL doesn't factor players signed that were cut by other teams - that's bullshinski...



If they're cut, then they're a free agent; and Baltimore signed free agents to replace their "losses"...



Ozzie is the NFL's poster boy for GMs who went through their mgt program and their favoritism is evident...

This may help clarify.

Then again, it may not.

Looking at the total numbers of comp picks, it doesn't seem fair.

For example,
The Ravens have had 35 more draft picks than the Browns over the last 20 years. They're in the same division and Baltimore has had much more success over that time span than Cleveland. That seems to me like too much of an advantage when the Browns haven't done anything wrong.
