Not that we'll get a darn thing, but they're starting to leak out and should all be announced by days end

Steelers get 3 7th rounders
Packers get 2 4th rounders and 2 7's

Who did they lose that equated to those picks?

Won't these continue to change when acquisitions are made as free agency continues?

These Comp picks are from last years FA period. Comp picks for this FA period will be handed out next year.

Duh. I didn't make that assumption though it should have been clear. I guess I'll go poke around and see who they lost/gained past year.

From last off-season:

Green Bay has bid farewell to, in order of importance, former starters Cullen Jenkins, Daryn Colledge, Atari Bigby, Nick Barnett, Brandon Jackson, Mark Tauscher and Brady Poppinga. Also gone are several players who filled lesser roles.

So far, just Mason Crosby, John Kuhn and James Jones have re-signed. All are important players, but not as important as the first two Packers lost.

I'm reading that the Steelers are likely to only get one 7th Round pick LINK and their 2011 UFA losses were Matt Spaeth (TE), Nick Eason (DT), and Keyaron Fox (LB).

Also, compensatory formula weighs your FA losses vs gains. Cut guys like Manning, Winston don't factor in

Compensatory picks for guys like Mario Williams and Cortland Finnegan come in 2013.

It is going to be SWEET if we win it all this year and then get a handful of extra picks as well in next years draft.

signed a one year deal...given that he is a medicore at best punter, maybe for veteran minimium meaning he does not qualify. Also, if Hartmann is ready after his suspension, Jones could be cut before playing enough to be a qualified player. somebody could correct on this front.

My temptation is to go conservative and list him as qualified, so Texans 4 qualifed loses versus 1 qualified signing.

looks like it is aveteran minimum contract and should not count as a qualifying FA

back to 4-0

Looks like a veteran minimium signing therefore not counting against the number.

One of the problems with the compensatory pick system cited above is that so many winning teams are rewarded with additional extra picks. But, as a few general managers noted, perennial winning teams often aren't as involved in free agency, sustain a net "loss," and so merit the extra choices. Of the 15 franchises awarded compensatory picks for 2012, six had winning records in 2011, five had losing marks, and four finished at .500 ...

With Neil Rackers signing with the Redskins, the Texans may have a net 5 in lost free agents this offseason. I said may, because the contract value has yet to be released, and Rackers has yet to make the team. A team may receive a maximum of 4 compensatory picks in a given draft. So the team might be able to sign a free agent for more than the minimum and still get the maximum number of compensatory selections.

If things don't change, we can count on getting 4 comp picks next year, which would give us 11 in the draft. I think that frees us up to use a future pick or two this year to get some more picks. Maybe send our 2013 3rd and 2012 6th to get a late 2nd. We need some impact players to make a deep playoff run, and extra 2nd or 3rd round picks would go a long ways towards that.

I was thinking the same thing...kinda good value considering we are going to have the last pick in every round next year.

2013 draft looks deep.

Plus, I want to keep all our 2013 picks because 2013 will be the ALL NAME draft:

Fluker, Tyrann, Barkevious Mingo, Marquess, Jelani, Kawann, Manti Te'o, Star Lotulelei, Sharrif...

These are world class, must have names!!!
