    Congrats to those who received them. And no, you cannot trade compensatory draft picks.

    Looks like it’s ranked based on salary, tag designation if any, and length of time the player was bid on.

    I thought the cumulative effect of losing Matt Roth, D’Qwell Jackson, and Eric Wright would have been worth a late round pick, but I guess amount of players lost doesn’t factor in.

    Because there is so much turnover, there tends to be a lot of free agents signed over free agents lost... Which would screw whatever complex formula that the NFL uses (free agents signed/lost, players playing time, salary, etc). I figured the best way to do this is go by how much a UFA netted in free agency if he wasn't re-signed by his team (for example, I resigned Champ Bailey by giving him the transition tag; I also resigned Kevin Vickerson in unrestricted free agency). Transition tagged players did count in this, but franchised tagged players did not.

    I asked a couple GMs on their thoughts on this process and they agreed that this was a fair formula. The market decides who gets compensatory picks basically.

    If I had known that, I would have driven up the price on wrinkly old hair pulling Matt Light. :shifty:

    Karma tells me you would have re-signed him for like $9.0M then. And I would have laughed... then again, it's still better than Doug Free for $20.0M... :no:

    Yeah, I'm nice to everyone but Desides... Desides pestered me too much to get a pick.

    I think 20/32 teams got compensatory picks, which is on cue with the NFL as they gave 19 teams compensatory picks in 2010.

    I get nothing for losing Stephen Tulloch? 16 game starter drafted by Tennessee, signed by Chiefs for $4M.
