that's it? I was hoping to get an extra ten first rounders

 

I read over on the old site that it is also concievable that we'll get a 7th round pick due to the requirement to have 255 picks? 255-(7x32)224=31. Has anyone done a count of his Comp. picks to see if he reached the 31 needed to make the quota?

 

I Found this on a CBS SPORTS message board

Washington (Derrick Dockery, $7 million per season, 16 GP/16 GS)

Philadelphia (Donte Stallworth, $5.083 million, 16/9)
Green Bay (Ahman Green, $5.6 million, 6/5)
Tennessee (Drew Bennett, $5 million, 14/1) – possibly a fifth- round pick

Washington (Warrick Holdman, $1.375 million, 0/0, on IR all season)
Chicago (Justin Gage, $1 million, 16/8)
Cincinnati (Anthony Wright, $1.055 million, 4/0)
Chicago (Todd Johnson, $975,000, 16/1)
Buffalo (Andre Davis, $850,000, 14/8)
Chicago (Ian Scott, $1 million, 0/0, on IR all season)
Washington (Kenny Wright, $973,333, 7/1)
Carolina (Vinny Ciurciu, $966,667, 13/0)
Indianapolis (Mike Doss, $900,000, 8/1)
Atlanta (net-value comp; lost three for $9.567 million, 47/30 and one Pro Bowl; signed three for $4.964 million, 45/13)
Miami (non-compensatory pick)

 

We are getting a 6th and 7th (end of round) and have a possibility of getting another 7th depending on some calcs.

 

the formula to this must be as much as a close held secret as the BCS

 

This Adam guy is usually pretty close. It sounds like we are getting an extra 6th and 7th round pick. Nothing to write home about, but it is better then nothing. The 7th round pick will be one of the last few picks in the entire draft, and it is more of a way of getting a head start on signing UDFA. I bet near the end of the 7th round, Parcells/Ireland will decide which UDFA they want to go after and will use that last pick to get the guy they think would be the hardest to sign as a UDFA.

The Comp picks are officially handed out by the NFL next Monday.

 

Thanks, ATV, that's the post that I remembered from the old site. Good response, bro!

 

This gibes with the research I've done as well: extra 6th and 7th round picks for us.

 

Cool! We haven't picked "Mr. Irrelevant" since '78!

 

wow all the pressure on us to pick mr irrelevant how did last years do? the announcer couldnt pronounce his name lol

 

I don't think we will have Mr. Irrelevant. I think there will be 2 if not 3 added picks so Mr. Irrelevant will go to St. Louis or Oakland

 

No problem :yes:
