Colts get one compensatory pick.

We're gonna pick Mr.Irrelevant again...

 

That means that crazy lady is going to be haunting our dreams again...

 

Yeah, I remember, sounded just like the lady that says CHANDLER BING!!! :)

You're right. Reading is fundamental.

 

Change is that they didn't get a third; they got a fourth. 

 

 

I would still consider 14 picks as a major bonanza in a 7 round draft.

So they take into account who we lost LAST year and who we gained last year?  Interesting.  I thought we lost a lot of players that helped other teams way more than our FAs we signed.  Oh well.

The Colts should pick a ST player(K/P)

 

It worked for KC(Succup)

Meh, if I were them I would do one of two things.

1. Trade all their picks to move up in the draft. They can't seriously keep that many picks. At least they would have fewer picks with better talent.

2. Trade them for future picks. Spread them out throughout the next 2 or 3 years. Obviously they can't get rid of their comp picks though...

I know Grigson was hoping for two, and higher up the board.  Oh well, not good for our draft. But, we still have our 8 million dollar backup QB insurance policy we all hope never sees the field.

That list contains drew Stanton in the gains column, I didn't know that trades factor into the equation. I thought it was just free agency. If it includes trades, shouldn't Davis be on the list?

Another question. 49rs lose 3 players, sign manningham and get 3 picks all of which are higher than the colts? Weird math there

That's bull nothing for garcon

I don't mind the last pick in the draft. It's one more pick we didn't have before.

 

I look at it like this there are always several UDFAs that many teams are interested in and compete to get them to sign every year.  The compensatory pick we got is basically the same as giving us 1st choice of all the UDFAs, we don't have to try to convince him to sign with us, and we get him for peanuts.

Am sure trades don't count cause ur losing a player or a pick can't member what we traded but we should of got 2 picks but need to see rules again but think ur right

That's exactly right. We basically get first choice of the UDFAs. Very we'll put.

I'm kind of surprised we got any considering all the FAs we signed.

What a ripoff!!
