    Philly.com projects one 7th rd compensatory pick

    The NFL will not confirm 2014 NFL Draft compensatory picks until late next month, but Philly.com took a stab at projecting those picks, and things don't look like they'll work in favor of the Buffalo Bills.


    Buffalo found themselves without the services of a lot of notable names in 2013 from their 2012 team, but cut players - Ryan Fitzpatrick chief among them - do not apply to the compensatory pick formula. Therefore, as the Philly.com article points out, they lost two players (Andy Levitre to Tennessee and Chad Rinehart to San Diego) and signed two themselves (Alan Branch and Manny Lawson).


    A third notable Bills free agent signing, Kevin Kolb, also does not qualify for the formula because he missed the season with an injury. The projected "net value" seventh-round pick comes into play because Levitre's contract far outweighed those signed by Branch and Lawson (and Rinehart, for that matter).

      It will be disappointing if that's all we get.

          I think they're right that it's only one pick, but I bet it's a 5th or 6th-rounder. 7th is too low, IMO.
