Re: mike Wallace
Blurb from the Cincinnati Enquirer, 2/22/12:
..."Another big change in the CBA concerns restricted free agents. If a team wants to sign an RFA to an offer sheet, the highest tender now is just a first-round pick instead of a first and third. With the Bengals having an estimated $60 million in space, which would be the second-most in the league, some have speculated that they could try to sign Steelers receiver Mike Wallace to a huge offer sheet which Pittsburgh would be unable to match. If that would happen, the Bengals would give up their second first-round pick, which is the 21st overall, to the Steelers."...
Since CIN has two 1st picks (#17 via OAK, and their own, #21), it seems that the pick awarded is the team's own, not one acquired. FWIW.Last edited by stuckincincy; 02-22-2012, 08:53 AM.Fiat justitia ruat caelum. Noli timere. Laus Deo.

Re: mike Wallace
I would give the 10th pick for him, or if he is there after the draft then it would be next years first I believe, but he is the Legit number 1 and deep threat we need not saying the Bills would cause the coaches and front office are all idiots and cheap bastardslets go BUFFALO lets go BUFFALO

Are you saying that the new CBA demands that if CIN offered a tender to PGH for Wallace, it would have to be the higher of CIN's two spots? The Cin Enquirer sports folks don't think that is the case.
Enlighten me.Last edited by stuckincincy; 02-22-2012, 09:16 AM.Fiat justitia ruat caelum. Noli timere. Laus Deo.

If a team like Buffalo at #10 wanted to sign Wallace, they would need to have the #10 pick or higher to offer in compensation. They couldn't trade down and offer a lower first, it isn't allowed. That was all I was trying to say.

Originally posted by IckybalukyNo. Compensation for RFA has always been picks at the same level or higher than the team's original draft position in that round. Cincinnati is slotted with the #21 pick, so the pick they give up with be that one.

So were does this "or higher" come from? You're starting to fight a rear guard action here..Last edited by stuckincincy; 02-22-2012, 10:05 AM.Fiat justitia ruat caelum. Noli timere. Laus Deo.
