Bills get no compensation picks

[G. Host]

Not really a surprise considering number of FA's (i.e. Teague, Eddie Robinson , Marcus Price, Moore, etc.)

Fish got 4 comp picks! Other AFC East got none.

Five NFL teams will get four extra picks each in the April 26-27 draft as compensation for losing free agents a year ago.

The earliest pick will come after the fourth round, the 131st overall, which will go to Philadelphia for losing linebacker Jeremiah Trotter to Washington.

The five teams with four picks each are Baltimore, Green Bay, Miami , the New York Giants and St. Louis.

Chicago will get three picks while one each will go to Arizona, Cincinnati, Detroit, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Kansas City, Philadelphia, Seattle and Tampa Bay.

What determines the # of picks? I remember getting a few last year...

[G. Host]

Net gain/loss of FA's

Players cut like Rob Johnson do not count. Highest draft pick has gone down greatly for they are phasing out picks.

5 got 4 not 4 got 5, I got that mixed up in what I said but not in quote.

Cool, 4 picks is better then 0. Anything helps.

[BillsFanInMass]

[Mr. Miyagi]

What FAs did the Fins lose to deserve so many comp picks?

That's what I am trying to figure out Miyagi.
