Compensetory pick for Tait ??!!!
 

Are we getting a pick for Tait or not? What pick? When will we know? I hate the compensetory pick system. It's a total crapshoot. I think Tags just makes it up as he goes along.

You should have ended the title in question marks. I thought you were going to report we were going to get a 3rd for him or something.

you douche bag

I think it's just a low 8th rounder...

heh, that's exactly what I thought

I could not find out from Google when they are awarded. But I did find this site that lists all the traded draft picks for this year and who they were made for as compensation.

You're right. I'll fix it. I don't want anyone to get their hopes up.

They don't release that list until early April I don't think............

I'm guessing the end of the 3rd or 4th rounds.

I have a bad feeling that we'll get NOTHING!!

COMPENSATORY DRAFT PICKS: Compensation awarded by the league to teams who lost more UFAs than they signed. Compensation is in the form of extra draft picks added to the end of rounds three through seven. The quantity of picks is equivalent to the difference of UFAs signed to UFAs lost. For example, if a team loses 4 UFAs and signs 1 UFA, they will receive three Compensatory Selections. The value of the picks is determined by the difference of the contracts signed by the players lost and those acquired. The highest possible compensatory pick is the 31st of the third round (91st overall). If a team has signed an equal number or more UFAs than it lost, no "Compensatory Picks" are awarded.

For the first time in NFL history, the Bears will be granted a compensatory pick for a player they acquired.

Cool site, Log. It looks like we have 3 5th rounders. Carl usually does well in the later rounds...

that's awesome... ROFL

Tait put us way over outgoing contracts I think.

We lost Tait and Quin last year. We signed Bober, Huard and Dalton. We may not get any comp pick for him if that definition is correct.
