So far we've signed no one & lost 2 players (Floyd, Davis) who signed pretty decent contracts.  Trubisky & Morse don't count either way as they were released.

 

In the shape we're in, I'd hope they aren't letting possible picks next year stop them from making acquisitions that can help the team now. We're not in a position roster wise to be focusing solely on mid round picks in a year.

I'm sure Beane wishes he had $30M in cap to spend, but he doesn't.  The comp pick discussion is driven by that fact.

If Beane sees a deal, he will do it.

Floyd doesn’t count.

I understand the position we're in and I'm not expecting anything big. Just to say that I would hope in the shape we're in with the roster that he wouldn't pass on something that we could do to improve the team now with eyes on the comp formula for next season. Especially with how we were done this year.

Why not?  Because of the "void years"?

The first step is to determine if a player who signed with a new team is a CFA. First, they must be an unrestricted free agent and not a street free agent. Second, they could not be a player who potentially had more years under contract with the team. If there was a team option that was not exercised, or at any point in their contract a player renegotiated their deal for fewer years, they are not eligible to be a CFAs. If there are void years in a players contract, these do not preclude the player from being a CFA.

I stand corrected. Cherish this moment.

Comp picks are fake. Don't count on them. They reviewed this year's again & still kept us & SF at 4th round but gave Cincy a 3rd round. Totally not worth it. No one seems to really understand the supposed "formula", Beane & the experts said it would be a 3rd & planned accordingly. We'll give up talent & end up with a 7th next year. Until they fix it so the process is transparent & everyone can understand it & know what they'll actually get, it's about as real as the Easter bunny and as reliable as Nathan Peterman in the 1st half of a Bills game.

Picks after the 3rd round have proven to be golden for this team there was a chart last year that said Beane was one of the best drafters after the third round in the league I think only San Fran was better.
So any comp picks I will gladly take despite it most likely not being a 3rd.

Brandon Beane doesn't understand it. Clearly planned to have a 3rd when he traded for Douglas. Every NFL analyst doesn't understand it, said it would be a 3rd. No one understands it except the handful of people who decided it was a 4th. & That's exactly my point. There's not enough transparency so everyone understands how it works. & Without that info you're making decisions based on guesses, which is not a good or reliable plan. It's a plan based on an assumption that may not come true, thus a hoax...

 

Don't worry I'm just bitter that it appears arbitrary when no one is allowed to know how it works. For all you or I or Beane or anyone else knows this is how they decide:

Like we have been this year? The league adjusts their picks to a third for Cincinnati even though Tremaine Edmonds signed for more money then the guy Cincy lost!! How does this make any sense? Pegula needs to call the league and demand the third that they are owed.

Whom else could be signed elsewhere and give us comp picks? Off the top of my head, Hyde, Dane Jackson, Dodson, Poona ford, that other DT we signed, Sherfield, maybe more?

none of these would bring much but still could bring something. A 7th could turn into a Dane Jackson type or a punter

A 4th and a 5th , that turns into a 5th and a 6th or something like that based on the HOAX!  Still waiting to see where the dart lands.....

that's because the Broncos signed a new quality assistant onside kick coach who is an ambidextrous french canadian with they/them pronouns that will cause the former team he worked on (Jets) to get a 2nd round.

Great... Thank you for this... People are still able to get a pick for Ronald Darby... Dang!   I know this is not concrete because it also depends on the net loss from player signed by another team and a player that you signed. DO they have this chart for the compensatory picks for this year and what player each team lost.
