PetermansRedemption Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I’ll go to my grave saying this. But it is beyond idiotic that the NFL even has comp picks. There are no “small market” NFL teams to protect. Every NFL team has the ability to spend to the cap. Why would you reward them for choosing not to re-sign their own? It’s always a choice. It’s such an extreme case where money doesn’t talk in the NFL, where money doesn’t reign supreme. So in 99% of cases, the team chooses not to re-sign the player. Why should they be rewarded for making that choice. If the NFL insists on comp picks the absolute highest they should award is a 5th rounder. 5-7 rounds are insignificant enough where it’s ok. 19 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I always love hearing Bulaga news. Just keeps reminding us of how ridiculously stupid the Spiller pick was. Shoulda been Bulaga, and we would have had an RT for a decade. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiller ?♂️ I suppose it was a different time of football, but I’m sure glad no one is dumb enough to pick a RB that high anymore. Unless it’s a true generational talent. The Bills used to love doing two hallmarks of losing franchises, drafting cornerbacks and running backs high. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blank Stare Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 That’s cold. However, he should only be upset with himself. Not the chargers. Dude passed up a solid deal and got stiffed as a FA. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I can appreciate the ability to successfully nurse a grudge until it's able to hit moody adolescence, settle down, have a few little grudge kids, watch those grow up and die surrounded by loved ones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now if you sign 5 players who weren't cut from other teams to 5 contracts worth 1 million dollars each and you lose 5 players who each sign for a contract of 10 million or more you don't get a comp pick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah we should have drafted Earl Thomas in the 1st, then Gronk in the 2nd, Emmanuel Sanders in the 3rd, Geno Atkins in the 4th, Reshad Jones in the 5th, Antonio Brown in the 6th, and Alejandro Villanueva in the 7th. Many bad decisions made and players passed on that draft day in 2010. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I like the no more comp pick idea. Or just put them at the end of the 7th. It’s basically lime first crack at UDFA then.

Buffalo03 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I don't really mind the comp picks but I don't think they should be given to teams that win the Super Bowl. I remember the Patriots getting them a couple times after winning the Super Bowl and it annoyed the hell out of me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I really don’t like is how it dries up the trade market for anything less than a 3rd rounder. As it stands, teams are rewarded for letting a player walk instead of trading them to a different team for a 4th or higher. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
