Quote:Don't know where you're getting the "4th" from. 

 

If the Jags let Monroe walk, he would have likely got one of the biggest offseason contracts in free agency. Compensatory pick judgment is determined largely by the amount of money the free agent signs for. 

 

Had the Jags only signed cheap/ short term free agents themselves, they could have garnered as much as 2 third round compensatory picks for Monroe. 

 

The more expensive free agent that Jax signed in the offseason, would have netted the compensation less, however. 

LOL what?!?!?!?!

 

In 2012 Baltimore lost Ben Grubbs (after being voted to pro bowl in 2011), Jarret Johnson, Brandon McKinney, Haruki Nakamura, Cory Redding, and Timo Zbikowski all to free agency.

 

They only signed Sean Considine and Corey Graham......and you know what they got?

 

They got 4th round, 5th round, 6th round, and 7th round pick for compensatory before the 2013 draft........

 

In turn during that same year, Atlanta lost Kelvin Hayden, Curtis Lofton, James Sanders, and Eric Weems. They also didn't sign anyone and for 2013 compensatory picks they only got 4th and three 7th round picks.....

 

How are you figuring Eugene Monroe would net us a 3rd round pick...let alone 2??????
