Compensatory Pick

have the panthers set to get an extra 5th rounder, with the possibility of getting two additional 6th round picks. 

 

the 5th round pick would be for Mike Mitchell.  Hell of a deal for a one year rental....and maybe a strategy worth considering going forward. 

 

the 6th rounders would be dependent on how Cason and Webb are viewed relative to Munnerlyn and Ginn.  Again, possibly why Cason was cut when when he was.

So all those people that were saying we are going to get a 3rd and 2 5th's and have these extra picks better pump the brakes a little.  I knew we were getting one for Mitchell, I was hoping for a 4th but a 5th is ok.  I was hoping we would get one more and think we will get one because Webb played so little this year.  An extra 5th and 6th is not bad.  Not great but not bad.

What about one for LaFell?  As much as the Patriots have over-exaggerated his ability and what he brought to that team, he still had a decent year.  We should be able to get something for him.

lafell loss likely averaged out by cotchery signing

I think you are right, this could very well be a strategy going forward, especially for a team that builds primarily through the draft. The later rounds of the draft and FA is how teams build depth and/or fill holes e.g. ST.

Too bad Cotchery stinks.

I don't see it, but I know little of the formula theory.

its all about avg salary per year, in which case cotchery and lafell have similar enough deals

I would be floored with a 5th and 2 6's. I was expecting a 7th or nothing

Having that many picks will help us if we want to move up a few spots in the later rounds when targeting a specific guy

There's much more to it.

of course.  but that is more or less why we wouldnt get a comp return for losing lafell.  that + snaps is the base formula with lots of little extras added on top

 

there are lots of tricks to getting comp picks, which can and should be exploited on a regular basis.  look at the ravens, they ALWAYS focus on sign players who were cut specificallly so they dont counteract players lost for comp picks.  same reason why GB finally signed Pepper as one of the very few FA they have signed in years. 

 

Lets hope someone pays Hardy $8m+ per year!

You think Hardy can get us a third?
