comp picks?


Captain Morgan

Recommended Posts

now that the season is over, did Mitchell, LaFell and any others perform

well enough to get us some comp pics, maybe a 5th rounder?

 

pretty sure we get nothing for Smitty because we cut him instead of losing him

in free agency.

 

also, when does the league announce the comps?  I'll hang up and take my answer on the air.

In addition to the 32 selections in each of the seven rounds, a total of 32 compensatory picks are awarded to teams that have lost more or better compensatory free agents than they signed in the previous year.[58] Teams that gain and lose the same number of players but lose higher-valued players than they gain also can be awarded a pick, but only in the seventh round, after the other compensatory picks. Compensatory picks cannot be traded, and the placement of the picks is determined by a proprietary formula based on the player's salary, playing time, and postseason honors with his new team, with salary being the primary factor. So, for example, a team that lost a linebacker who signed for $2.5 million per year in free agency might get a sixth-round compensatory pick, while a team that lost a wide receiver who signed for $5 million per year might receive a fourth-round pick.

 

All compensatory picks are awarded at the ends of Rounds 3 through 7.

 

If fewer than 32 such picks are awarded, the remaining picks are awarded in the order in which teams would pick in a hypothetical eighth round of the draft (These are known as "supplemental compensatory selections").

 

Compensatory picks are awarded each year at the NFL annual meeting which is held at the end of March; typically, about three or four weeks before the draft.

The only guy we signed who will be viewed as a true FA signing will be Cotchery. Roman Harper signed a decent enough deal (2yr/3.6M) but was cut by the Saints so he doesn't count in terms of FA added versus FA lost. Avant, DeCoud, Cason, Dickson and others were cut by previous team or signed here a vet minimun contract.

 

My prediction is we get 3 comp picks: 5th (Mitchell), 6th (Munnerlyn), 6th (Ginn+LaFell-Cotchery). Best case scenario would be a 4th and a 5th by Mitchell and Munnerlyn.

    • The good thing about replacing a bad player is you really have nothing to lose. If their replacement is bad so what, you didn't get much worse and probably saved money.  
    • I came over from the old Panthers Insider site. When Fox Sports bought that platform it slowly just started dying plus the guy who ran that site was dealing with some pretty significant health issues so the whole thing just slowly fell apart. Quite a few of us migrated over here. Not sure how many are still around.  I miss that place. It struck a nice balance of having enough active posters to keep productive conversation flowing but didn't have so much traffic that you end up with a lot of trolling BS. This place is getting there though since we shutdown new registrations but at some point we're going to have to open it back up or we'll watch this place slowly die off too as posters fall off for one reason or another. We just have to figure out a way to filter out the spam bots. It was a never ending battle to ban the spam bots to keep then from overrunning the site. You'd think they'd be a little more strategic. I mean, if you fill a site with nothing but spam people are just going to stop coming so it's not a sustainable model. But nope, every one of them makes dozens of duplicate threads filling up pages upon pages as soon as their account goes live.
    • lol...I don't remember that.  Although recalling what I had for breakfast yesterday is sometimes a challenge.  Hope it was a positive thing.
