corrupt3d Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Yeah, I know, I know. It's early. But, to make this offseason go by, I'm desperate for anything. So... ...of our following departed FA's, do you think any of them will do well enough to give us some compensatory picks next year? Departed FA: -Mark Brunell, Saints -Pierson Prioleau, Jags -David Macklin, Rams -Reche Caldwell, Rams What do you all think? You can choose multiple rounds in the poll above.

terpskins10 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 None of them signed big money deals. I'd say we get a couple sevenths if we're lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Recent Vintage Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 It's possible but unlikely. Only really possible because we signed virtually no one, although, Collins' deal is probably about the size of all four of the players we lost. The only way we get a pick (other than a 7th) is if Macklin or Caldwell get significant playing time. I don't see Prioleau or Brunell doing much.

corrupt3d Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 Wasn't Brunell cut ? Nah, his contract was voided due to performance clauses that were met (or in this case, lack of performance clauses). It's possible but unlikely.Only really possible because we signed virtually no one, although, Collins' deal is probably about the size of all four of the players we lost. The only way we get a pick (other than a 7th) is if Macklin or Caldwell get significant playing time. I don't see Prioleau or Brunell doing much. From what I understand, if you sign your own free agent, it doesn't count against you since technically, you're losing and gaining that free agent, effectively negating any value it would have on the compensatory pick equation.

Daanie Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I think that the free agent you lose has to be a draft choice of yours to get compensated? (i.e. Dockery) None of the FA's lost this year were draft choices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
argentina_redskins Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Yes, remember that last year we got picks for Warrick Holdman (didn't play a lot) and Wright (he sucked) in the 7th so I see us maybe getting 2 picks in the 7th in 2009 (remember we signed Jerome Mathis!).

Cpt.Chaos47 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 If anything it'll be a 7th round or 2 no more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris0894 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 i don't believe we will get any next year, nobody signed any free agents from us that might perform well in order for us to get them. However i do think we have all of our picks next year not sure though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area51 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 We'd be lucky to get a 7th. However i do think we have all of our picks next year not sure though Sadly, no. Jets ended up with our '09 4th rounder for Pete Kendall. The deal was a 5th in '08 if he plays less than 80% of the offensive snaps last year and a 4th in '09 if he plays more than 80% of the snaps. Joe Gibbs may be gone but thanks to his extreme undervaluing of draft picks it'll take us two years since his departure for us to finally have a full slate of draft picks.

(i.e. Dockery) None of the FA's lost this year were draft choices? Draft choices is only part of the criteria. Size of contract, playing time, performance etc all count as well. I think we will be lucky to get more than 1 7th rounder and if Mathis makes our team as the KR and does well we might end up with nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recent Vintage Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 For a solid left guard for a season in which we had no O-line I'd say the 4th rounder was totally worth it. Hell, he might even start this entire season too, assuming Rinehart doesn't supplant him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonniey Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Wow, I never saw so much bad information being put out on just the first page of postings in a thread. - Players whose contracts are cut or voided do not count toward the Comp pick equation (That leaves only Macklin and Caldwell versus Mathis) - Players whose contract expires counts toward the equation (ie he does not have to have been drafted by us - Holdman is an example) - We traded for Kendall for either a 5th this year or a 4th next (depending on playing time) not both - we have all our picks next year. - We can get comp picks in the 7th if the team basically sucks. 32 are given out each year and not all 32 are usually used, the left overs go to the teams with highest draft order at the end of the 7th. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me try and break this down for you: We went into the '08 draft with our original 1,2,3,5,6 and 7 picks. It's a good thing that you knew the stipulations of the trade. :doh: - We can get comp picks in the 7th if the team basically sucks. 32 are given out each year and not all 32 are usually used, the left overs go to the teams with highest draft order at the end of the 7th. - WOW, someone clearly has no idea what they're talking about.

Had he not played 80% of the snaps, we would have lost the 5th this year. Hail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audible_Red40 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 1 or 2 - 7th rounders, that's it. Baring the FA's we "lost" make their respected teams. LOL, it's funny saying the Free Agents we lost. Didn't even want them. It's awesome getting a pick for dudes like Macklin or Highway 57. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terpfan Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 We will get a 7th or two just because we signed absolutely nobody. None of those guys signed anything close to a big deal though, so I cant see us getting anything higher than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Califan007 The Constipated Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 John Clayton from ESPN said the following: "The Redskins have six of their seven picks for next season, losing a fourth-round pick for guard Pete Kendall because he played more than 80 percent of the snaps. They could even get three compensatory picks to bring their 2009 total to nine." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
