78thealltimegreat Posted March 11 Posted March 11 Picks after the 3rd round have proven to be golden for this team there was a chart last year that said Beane was one of the best drafters after the third round in the league I think only San Fran was better. So any comp picks I will gladly take despite it most likely not being a 3rd. 2 Quote

Until they fix it so the process is transparent & everyone can understand it & know what they'll actually get, it's about as real as the Easter bunny and as reliable as Nathan Peterman in the 1st half of a Bills game.

Donuts and Doritos Posted March 12 Posted March 12 12 minutes ago, Rigotz said: "This is something I don't understand, so I'm going to say it's a hoax!" The new normal. Brandon Beane doesn't understand it. Clearly planned to have a 3rd when he traded for Douglas. Every NFL analyst doesn't understand it, said it would be a 3rd. No one understands it except the handful of people who decided it was a 4th. & That's exactly my point. There's not enough transparency so everyone understands how it works. & Without that info you're making decisions based on guesses, which is not a good or reliable plan. It's a plan based on an assumption that may not come true, thus a hoax... Don't worry I'm just bitter that it appears arbitrary when no one is allowed to know how it works. For all you or I or Beane or anyone else knows this is how they decide: 1 Quote

The league adjusts their picks to a third for Cincinnati even though Tremaine Edmonds signed for more money then the guy Cincy lost!! How does this make any sense? Pegula needs to call the league and demand the third that they are owed. Quote

Turbo44 Posted March 12 Posted March 12 Whom else could be signed elsewhere and give us comp picks? Off the top of my head, Hyde, Dane Jackson, Dodson, Poona ford, that other DT we signed, Sherfield, maybe more? none of these would bring much but still could bring something. A 7th could turn into a Dane Jackson type or a punter Quote

Still waiting to see where the dart lands..... that's because the Broncos signed a new quality assistant onside kick coach who is an ambidextrous french canadian with they/them pronouns that will cause the former team he worked on (Jets) to get a 2nd round. 3 Quote

4thandGoal Posted March 12 Posted March 12 43 minutes ago, boyst said: https://overthecap.com/compensatory-picks Great... Thank you for this... People are still able to get a pick for Ronald Darby... Dang! I know this is not concrete because it also depends on the net loss from player signed by another team and a player that you signed. DO they have this chart for the compensatory picks for this year and what player each team lost. Quote
No_Matter_What Posted April 30 Posted April 30 Sort of random observation but today there has been a big shift in OTC data. Mack Hollins, who was previously way below the threshold, is now listed exactly as cutoff player at 670 (I am not sure, but he was listed as something like 710th or so before). This results in Bills losing 5th round pick for Floyd, and leave us with 4th round for Gabe Davis only. I know that after Tremaine debacle these unofficial sources need to be taken with a grain of salt, but I still find it interesting. Hopefully once all is said and done Hollins will fall under the line and we'll get 4th and 5th. https://overthecap.com/compensatory-picks Quote

bourbonboy Posted April 30 Posted April 30 Ugghhh....Mack Hollins $2.6M contract (7th rd compensatory....barely) wipes out Floyd's $10M, 5th rd loss? Something seriously wrong with that..... 1 Quote

You might as well not even plan for these. Whatever falls in our lap is gravy. The fairness of their system should be under scrutiny, but hardly worth stressing over anymore. Quote

It was a glitch or something to do with the draft data. I think it will be fixed soon. 1 Quote

It burned them this year. I wouldn't go relying on it again. Treat it like found money if/when you get it. Quote
