Comp Pick - Norwell

ironically he has been pretty bad with the Jags, the grass is not always greener.

Actually he’s played quite well, if you actually pay attention and also consider what kind of offense he has to worth with, 90% trash.

I believe he’s also been playing injured.

Worth his contract? Maybe not. But to say we dodged a bullet by not spending on him in order to pay Matt Kalil even more money I mean...joke is ultimately on the Panthers.

Yep, some sites had us getting 99 (over Watkins) but it’s as expected. It means our 4th is 116. Not bad, 7 3rd round comps is a lot. As usual NE is good at this.

So for the pleasure of Dontarie Poe we lost a 3rd or 4th for Star and gave Atlanta a 4th and spent a lot of money as well.

Heck, we didn’t get a 6th for Dickson either because of other FAs who didn’t even play. I’m just glad we didn’t burn the 3rd for Norwell. We are going to need it. 

So many of the average fans around here look at these free agent deals in a vacuum and never understand the total cost of some of these deals.

I'm guessing everyone of them would happily trade Poe for a third now.

It takes a bit of discipline for the teams.  The less UFAs you sign the more comp picks you tend to get.  The more picks you get the less free agents you should need in theory at least.  I think it is no surprise that some of the teams that historically receive the most comp picks, Patriots and Ravens have been some of the most stable and successful over the last 10-15 years.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you should never go after free agents, just be smart about it.

I think teams would be better off by staggering it.  For example if you (in simplest terms) lose 2 and gain 2 you receive no comp picks.  If you do that over 4 years you will have received none over that four years.  If you were to do 3G-1L, 1G-3L, 3G-1L, 1G-3L you would have singed the same number of free agents over that 4 years but you would also have 4 comp picks to show for it.

Also waiting for the in the summer to sign guys that are cut can be wise.  They don't count towards the comp pick formula and also they tend to be a lot cheaper at that point.  Could we have signed someone later do give the same production as Poe?

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
