No compensatory picks for Miami

[nyjunc]

Who did the Jets lose to get 4 picks?

Braylon, Shaun Ellis, Steve Weatherford, Drew Coleman & Brad Smith

Would we get any for Marshall next year if he blows up or is it only for free agents?

No, it is only for FAs lost

No, it is only for FAs lost

Dang thats what I thought

How many did NE get???

Philly IMO always seems to make out well when it comes to compensatory picks.

Little confused as to how they evaluate these picks.

For instance if Manning leads the Broncos to a SB this season, what would Indy recieve the next season as a compensatory pick? A 1st rounder?

Granted Manning was released, but lets say it happens with Brees next season. Can you be given a pick that high?

Indy gets no compensatory picks for Manning.

Picks are loss of free agents with expiring contracts only, trades/cuts do NOT net a compensatory pick.

Highest compensatory pick available is at the end of round 3.

There are a lot of factors that determine compensatory picks. First off, you need to lose more free agents then you signed. However, not all free agents are a part of the formula. A player that you release or a player that was released from another team that you sign do not count. Traded players don't count. Also, the contract values and the playing time of the players matters.

We lost Braylon Edwards, Shaun Ellis, Steve Weatherford, Drew Coleman & Brad Smith and we signed no one but our own guys.

I said we wouldn't get any compensatory picks this year but I was shot down.

I felt the same way.

No one really wants our cast-offs.

Of course its not how many picks you have but how well you use them.
