Compensatory Picks assinged!

NFL ANNOUNCES 32 COMPENSATORY DRAFT CHOICES
Written by: - ffLiveWire - ¦ 3/26/2007
Source:
A total of 32 compensatory choices in the 2007 NFL Draft have been awarded to 16 teams, the NFL announced today.
Under terms of the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement, a team losing more or better compensatory free agents than it
acquires in a year is eligible to receive compensatory draft picks.
The number of picks a team receives equals the net loss of compensatory free agents up to a maximum of four. The 32
compensatory choices announced today will supplement the 223 choices in the seven rounds of the 2007 NFL Draft (April
28-29). This year, the compensatory picks will be positioned within the third through seventh rounds based on the value
of the compensatory free agents lost.
Compensatory free agents are determined by a formula based on salary, playing time and postseason honors. The
formula was developed by the NFL Management Council. Not every free agent lost or signed by a club is covered by this
formula.
One club this year (Cincinnati) will receive a compensatory pick even though it did not suffer a net loss of compensatory
free agents. Under the formula, the compensatory free agents Cincinnati lost were ranked higher than the ones it signed
(by a specified point differential based upon salary and performance).
The following 2007 draft picks have been determined by the NFL Management Council:

Chargers and Colts get an extra 3rd....great, the rich get richer.Espurs117

sorry for the organization but hey the Raiders get another 3rd rounderRaider4Life81

They lost some guys but I definitely think they're all replaceable now.Wii26

So the Colts get a pick for losing Vanderjact? What a bunch of crap that is. Why don't they give Dallas one too? We spend alot to sign the idiot kicker.Espurs117

^^ Yeah it was back then but now they're benefitting after they win the super bowl. Hey some pain now they got some gain.Wii26

With such a pathetic season, a 3rd round pick is a god send.

We could use a new D-line nad O-Line. We're fine everywhere else. We can get a lot of Randy Moss and Jerry Porter. Wii26

Looks like Porter has turned a new leaf and is working hard. Same can't be said of Moss, though. I hope the Raiders trade him if he contnues to mope.

good good I'm glad you agree. Did you hear about the Raiders wanting McCown? I would rather have Kerry Collins unleast I know Collins has an awesome arm. I wouldn't care if they pick up CJ. Troy Smith without a doubt is an incredible QB. I just can't believe his value dropped from like top 10 pick to 3-4th round because of one game. So much better then McCown. Even if they don't want Troy Smith, pick up Carr. Carr is a better QB in my opinion. I think Lions secured him though so hopefully McCown doesn't come our way. I don't want him. Wii26

I think it maybe due to the fact that Troy Smith has an attitude problem.. a major one. So I think the fact taht he performed horribly in the biggest game of his life and has attitude problems (didn't he get in trouble with the law a bunch of times?) dropped his value. regardless, McCown no no.. Carr/troy Smith/Jamarcus Russell yes yes.Wii26

I don't wanna sound like a hater when I say this, but Troy Smith could be the next Chris Weinke. So you guys should also think about Drew Stanton or Trent Edwards. Drew Stanton is similar to Troy Smith in skill.detroitpistons0

Brennan went to a WAC School, where their only competition each year is a few interconfrence schools. I don't think he's worth it in the early first round, since you said "Finish at the bottom"detroitpistons0

Brennan is from a smaller conference but he completely tears the teams he plays against. It's not just normal beatings. He has the talent and it's pretty obvious. The fact that he threw for 72%.. incredible. That clearly shows he's an awesome talent. I think he's easily a first round pick if not a top 10. He may not have the strength or physical superiority of Jamarcus Russell, but he reminds me a lot of Tom Brady. Calm and gets the job done. He'll probably own a lot of NCAA Division I records by the time he's done.

Only thing against him, the teams they played against weren't that good so it's hard to judge if he's the real deal. I think he's an awesome talent in the NCAA but can he get it done in NFL? Probably. He's not necessairly a power house. He just relies on a lot of accuracy.

Unfortunately we won't know what he's made out of. Let's see how he does this season with Hawaii.

I wouldn't mind keeping Porter and picking up Calvin Johnson. Randy Moss can be dealt away for a lot. I'm just so excited to see who we pick. The draft is 2 weeks away. The excitement!

As for Jordan Palmer, possibly. The QB situation is up in the air right now. So many options.
