Next year there should be compensatory picks right?

IF the case is indeed that, then this should be good news for us. Mitchell, Lafell, Ginn are all going to be starters.

 

...since smith's contract didn't expire, he won't yield a comp pick whatsoever. as for the other guys and the contracts they signed (remember peppers signed for +10mio/y back then): you're looking at 5th round picks and more reasonably - 6th and 7th rounders (like zithers mentioned)

I'm pretty sure playing time is a part of the formula, as well as their contracts.  So the picks could be affected over the course of the year.

 

Hardy would have netted a 3 easy, no chance it wouldn't have been a 4.  Mitchell could get us a 4 possibly, a 5 probably.  $5mil per year ain't shabby.  The others will probably be 6s and 7s.  And yea, Smitty was cut so there's no comp there.  None for Gross either.

Posted this already, but here it is again.

 

 

Panthers, SB champs and Texans keep early legs up on 2015 comp picks ... The big news on the free agent trail on Monday was the Giants signing of former Denver CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie to a 5-year deal. For the most part, though, the second week of the 2014 free agent signing period started very quietly. As a result, defending Super Bowl champion Seattle and Carolina continue to hold the early inside positions on picking up compensatory picks at the 2015 draft as both teams have lost 6 free agents to other teams while signing none. Meanwhile, Houston has lost five more free agents than they have signed to date, while Baltimore, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh are down a net of three. Comp picks for the 2015 draft will be determined by a formula that includes net free agent losses, as well as the money involved in a team's respective free agent gains and losses.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
