Comp picks,

Are we getting any comp picks this year. I don't remember hearing anything abt it

 

NFL Draft 2024 compensatory picks: A look at each team's additional selections ahead of the draft (msn.com)

Steelers did not get a comp pick.

 

No

 

BS.

Mason and Wallace and Alexander and adams should have netted us something.

 

Were we expecting one? I think they signed more free agents than they lost last offseason.

I wouldn’t be expecting one next offseason either

 

Mason

Are you missing the part where the picks are based on what happened last year



I gave you a face palm so @OB1 doesn't feel like he is the only one

 

3-0 with a 74.% completion rate with zero interceptions. no i'm not missing that part.

 

Lol, I think he was pointing to the fact that comp picks are based upon who a team lost/gained in FA the previous offseason.

IRL is correct above, they actually signed more than they lost. They aren't projected to get any from any of the reports I've seen (only 32 are allowed each year).

 

We signed a boatload of FAs last year so it would surprise me if we get any comps

 

They won’t have a chance with those guys until next year.

 

i understand that but doesn't the complicated formula the NFL uses to determine much of this also take into account how much each contributed to the former team?

 

You may have something there Mac, remember when the steelers signed a WR, then cut him before a certain deadline and were still able to get a comp pick. Not sure if this is not exactly what you are saying, but within that narrative.

 

And what does that have to do with comp pics this year

 

i thought what they did for the team as opposed to what a player brought in did for the team was part of how they based the one player for another formula to base what we gained as opposed to what we lost in free agency. holcomb, alexander, peterson, robinson did very little for us last year. sullivan, adams, mason, wallace did more for us than the players we brought in with free agency. i know there is some type of performance and amount of pay involved in the mysterious formula they use.

 

Here

It’s actually pretty concise and simple

Not really. The formula looks at the APY of the contract signed with the player's new team against the rest of their peers at the position, snap count with the new team, and any postseason honors awarded with the new club (so the 2023 FA class for the upcoming draft). The only role their performance prior to 2023 plays is in achieving whatever contract they were offered in last year's free agency. The baseline qualification for a CFA (compensatory free agent), is to be within the top 35% of contract APY at their position.

If that baseline is met, points are assigned for things like snap count and postseason awards with the new club. Then the points for each CFA lost is compared to those of any CFA signed by each team to determine if a compensatory pick should in fact be awarded, and in which round.

 

The 9'ers got a 3rd, 4th, 5th, and two 6th rd comp picks.

 

Wouldn’t resigning your own free agents potentially be a free agent that you didn’t lose which would factor into the formula?

 

That’s what I was getting at.

 

3 games? lol

 

They shouldn’t get a comp pick for Mason f’n Rudolph
