Buffalo Gets 4th round comp pick

The 3rd is cuz their minority DC got hired as HC in Houston.

I’m actually surprised no one has sued over that rule.  It is blatantly illegal.  I’m guessing no one wants to rock the boat…would be career suicide.

No but they did lose a minority coordinator to a HC position and a starting Quarterback to free agency. That explains their 3rd and their 4th and shouldn't surprise anyone. Some of their later picks do seem to be from teams overpaying former 49ers in free agency at the mid range. 

They should have a reverse comp pick……lose a 3rd…..for shedding Jimmy G.

Trade 6 players for one? No thanks. The rounds may be lower, but that doesn’t mean gems can’t be had in the 5th and 6th.

 

Nah I was joking.  I dont get the excitement over 11 picks if 7 of them are 5th round and on.

how so?  If we re-signed Gabe he’d be getting around the same $ 


And they won’t be doing that either… but at least they don’t have to give up a draft pick to pay Davis…

 

They aren’t in a position to trade for a WR 2 and then pay them $14m a year regardless of how much they kick down the road

How is it illegal?

It is overt and explicit discrimination on the basis of race…always illegal. The way they have structured the rule would make it a bit more  difficult to bring a successful case, but I don’t think there is any way that program would withstand legal scrutiny.

So now you know the formula?  Please do share.

Well clearly nobody knows the formula as well as they thought but there are some things that are very simple about it:

 

1. You lose a minority coordinator to a HC position or senior personnel guy to a GM position and you are awarded two 3rd round comp picks in the subsequent two drafts. 

 

2. The remaining picks are broadly issued by AAV contract value of free agents lost. The 49ers lost Jimmy G to a the richest FA contract given out last spring. 

 

The only things that are different from the projections from Over The Cap who explain the formula very clearly and do a great job with projections are Jimmy G and Tremaine being assigned 4th round value instead of 3rd round value which was projected. Everything else was exactly as those who understand the way that formula has been applied the past few years expected. 

 

So when people say "how the hell has San Francisco got all these picks?" The answer is they llst a minority coordinator to be a HC, they lost a starting QB in free agency and they lost a bunch of other qualifying role players.

Oh, so just a full round lower.  No biggie.  So just a guess.

Yes a full round. There are no half rounds. 

 

Keep thinking it is a conspiracy though if it helps you feel better.
