Compensatory picks are out

Comp picks are fairly over rated imo. Basically early 4th rounders at best. Outside of James Conner, Steven Nelson and Justin Simmons, this list is pretty uninspiring, dating back to 2011.

The picks can be traded as well.  They are valuable capital.

So Luke's value will not kick in until next year?

Luke will not count.  He retired.  It's treated as though we cut him.  The player has to be signed by another team for him to count in the compensatory pick formula.

If you aren't getting any, you aren't doing your job right as a GM. 

Completely disagree.  The two have zero correlation.

Assume you draft really well - good players, players like your organization and want to stay.  Take team friendly deals to do so.  You get zero comps . . . and that's not doing your job?

Assume you draft really poorly - players you want gone.  You're forced to sign FA's off the market to cover for it.  You get zero comps.

Comp picks have zero correlation to doing your job or not doing your job as a GM.

If you have a lot of other teams valuing your outgoing players that come available, it absolutely means that your team both drafted well, and coached them up....while continuing to draft well and replace those outgoing (overpriced) free agents.

The top 4 since the 1994 season when the comp picks were started are the Ravens, Cowboys, Packers, and Pats.

3 of the 4 are consistent winners in the NFL, the other was at one point, but has come back to Earth in the last 10 years...and before we start laughing at the Boys being there....they have been to the playoffs exactly 1 less time than us in the last decade.

Nothing for Olsen ?

We won't get much.

The biggest portion of deciding what comp pick you get is the size of the contract signed by the player after leaving your team, and your choosing to not bring in any additional free agents.

Think Peppers leaving for Chicago, or Norman leaving for WAS., those give you good comp picks, not the lower cost guys that leave.

I think it would figure into next years comp anyway.  With him being cut, im not sure we would get a comp

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
