JaCrispy Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 (edited) Now that we really can’t spend big on FA’s anymore, we should really start getting in on this- Beane should try to only sign guys who have been released imo...

Doc Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Yup, no surprise considering it was for Brady. Maybe they can use it to get a QB... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather have a good player who will contribute this year than a late 3rd round pick in next years draft. I know it may be controversial but if that stops them from signing someone I would be shocked. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All a comp pick does is reward you with an end-of-3rd rounder at best for losing one of your best players. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 The Pats Front office one of the most overrated groups in the history of sports. The only reason they were successful is they had Brady; didn’t sign him to a max deal; and then told FAs they could win a SB with Brady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s going to be 50 3rd round comps 2 years from now because 90% of the contracts this off season will be 1yr deals. On the other hand there shouldn’t be many comp picks at all next year because the market is flooded with players that were cut. Should be interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillnutinHouston Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Pats* actual won-loss record is irrelevant in comparison to their comp pick haul. That's all that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rigotz Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 The Pats getting a ton of comp picks thing is going to change dramatically. The comp pick formula is ridiculous. The best teams get all the comp picks because they can afford to let good players go and still win. Pats being a bad team = Pats will get less comp picks moving forward.

I thought the equation was based on guys you lost (I get not including someone you released) offset by guys you sign (this should include a guy released by another team)? Regardless, I think the whole comp thing is dumb. I wish they would just get rid of it. Edited March 11, 2021 by ngbills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Otreply Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 They should do away with compensatory picks altogether, teams should not be rewarded for poor cap management, or having a player leave after a contract is completed, to bad for them.

Captain Hindsight Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Let the GOAT walk. He wins SB. You miss playoffs and have the Bills run a fake punt in the own territory on MNF Get 3rd pick Belicheck is a genius 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 32 compensatory picks awarded every year regardless of qualifying Free Agents or not. You have to meet a certain salary threshold. There were more than 32 qualifying FAs this year. In an instance when their aren’t 32 qualifying Free Agents, teams with even net loss and net gain are rewarded a 7th rounder for bigger loss. Not enough still? 7th rounders are awarded from worst record to best until 32 picks are met 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
