Anthony Fasano - Big Contract - Starter for KC

Sean Smith - Big contract - Starter for KC

Yermiah Bell - Little Contract - Starter for Arizona

Dansby was released right? So that doesn't count.

Whoelse am I missing?
 
We cut Marshall, Dansby, and Burnett, so they don't count. Bell was the previous year. I'd be shocked if we got anything.
 
I doubt it but according to this we helped out a lot of teams:

Wild guess on a 5th rounder.
 
Jake Long was the first overall pick, a several time pro bowler, and was signed for a contract that averages 8.5 million over 4 years. I really don't see too many other players on that list that have the same status as him. I know we signed some players too, and who you sign plays a role, but we had the money to do so. It just makes no sense, the Steelers are projected to get a 3rd rounder for Wallace, but we get zilch for Long. It seems like the Steelers are getting rewarded for having bad cap management!

Wallace and Long Cancel each other out. The difference is the Steelers didn't sign a big name big money free agent last offseason, and that's why they get what will most likely be a 3rd round comp pick. The system isn't based on giving you picks based on what FA you lost. It's based on giving you picks based on the net of how much more you lost in FA than you gained. In our case we gained more than we lost so we will get no comp picks.
 
We won't get anything, we never do.... But the Pats will get a 2nd rounder, 2 3rd rounders and a 4th because Brady was injured last year.

They'll get a 6th or 7th, that's it.

The only thing that I know for certain is once the picks are announced, no matter what happens, many here will cry that we were treated unfairly.
