Compensatory Picks Announced


Lethal

Recommended Posts

yup..... i think this was a big reason why we letting Poole  walk the way we are..... We could lower tender him for around 2 mil but some team will sign him for 5-6 mil a year  and we would not get any compensation.... If we let him walk the way we are... Its around a 5th round pick  (depending on what we do in FA)

They do not factor into comp formula.

I thought I remembered that in his being non-tendered thread/news.

I expect we try to trade back into the 3rd or 4th round with these extra picks at minimum. Maybe package both our 5ths back into the 4th if a guy we just love is still there.

We can do a lot with this draft. It’s possible we trade up higher than an additional 3rd; such as getting another 2nd. If we walked out of 3 rounds with 4 picks, you gotta think we have a nice draft already.

Personally, before FA happens I’m hoping for DL at 14 or a CB (presuming some LOS needs are done in FA), and grab the best scheme fit OG in round 2; pairing with whatever moves we make in FA.

We’ve been doing pretty darn good with our 4th and 5th round picks, plucking some pro bowlers out of the mix. 

I do see us moving around after our 1st round pick this draft to cherry pick players we like.  Don’t forget, the Falcons moved up to grab Grady Jarrett which was a brilliant move in retrospect.

Coleman will likely get us a 4th next year depending on his contract, 5th at the lowest.  He will get more than Gabriel did.

Falcons picks set now...looks solid for some quality guys this year in a deep DL class and while OL is not super great, there are some quality guys in the top 15 or so prospects

1 (14)

2 (45)

3 (79)

4 (117)

4 (137)

5 (152)

5 (172)

6 (186)

7 (230)

I really wouldn't hate if we trade back or out of the first round if we can get a haul of 2nd/3rd round picks.

Didn't see the Saints receiving any early comp. picks.   At least they still have their first round pick!!  :lol:

The Saints don't have a first rounder this year. Those mooks don't pick until the late second round.

And after that they don't pick until the fifth. So to have no comp picks because they bet the farm last season is the icing on the swamp-soggied cake. :D
