Whatever you think you know about compensatory picks, you obvious haven't picked up that there is a very complicated formula that is used to determine which teams get what or how many of the LIMITED number of compensatory picks awarded each year. Now just one piece of info that gets loaded in the formula used on EVERY free agent is the players last contract and it's length and amount.
Now when a person that works with the group of people that developed this formula that makes the decision on what compensatory picks get awarded and he says that a certain type of player, one that signed a 1 year contract and leaves ends up with such a low score from the formula that is used for EVERY free agent, that compensatory picks are never awarded for those players. If there was unlimited number of compensatory picks awarded then I guessing those 1 year players would result in compensatory picks , but there isn't unlimited number of picks every year.
Again I doubt that your FACTUAL knowledge on compensatory picks is equal to or greater than someone that actually is involved in the process every year. and therefore I will believe what that person who is with the NFL management council says over what you think.

I don't care that you believe them over me. And yes I know there are only so many awarded. Not worth arguing over actually, so I will leave it at that.
We should get 4 comp picks as to the way it stands now. Should be a 3rd and 4th round pick, and possibly a 5th, and a 6th or 7th, could be another 5th. Depends on incentives and final numbers.
I do not think any player we lost was a 1 year deal to be concerned over in this formula.
