ScottF · 03-21-2015, 10:16 AM

Right now we are slated for the last pick of the draft, a compensatory 7th rounder for, would you believe, Charles Brown?

Why didnt we ever get one for Bushrod/De La Puente/ Etc?
I forget who else has left our team the past couple years via free agency but i know theres a couple more that should qualify for one?

I tried to make sense of that article. It didn't. I don't understand comp picks. Never really have. I mean New England gets a 3rd rounder???? That's bs. They're still a good team. They don't need compensation for not resigning a player. What happens next year? They get a free first rounder because they lost Revis?

There is no easy way to figure out comp picks.
Here's the most basic way to look at it:
We signed Byrd and Lorig
we lost DLP, Jenkins and Brown.
net-net on salaries + we lost one more than we gained, so we get one pick at the lowest tier. As Brown is the lowest of the lowest, we get the last 7th round pick.
trades and cuts don't figure in

This is feeling like the 2006 offseason more and more every day.

another offensive lineman or kicker. We will win the division this year because no one knows what coach is going to do. He keeps saying run heavy but I bet ya when all is said and done its 50/50 run and 10/15 yard passes
