The Chiefs received no compensatory picks.

#Chiefs did not receive a compensatory pick this year, NFL announces. But next year they could see as many as four.

I don't think anyone expected the Chiefs to get any. They picked up a lot more than they lost.

Duh-doy. We signed like 18 FAs last year to nearly every contract size imaginable.

Honestly, at this point, the less we do in free agency the better. We've already flubbed the first wave with the best talent. Now we need to stay put and let the picks roll in next year.

I think we're in line for a 3rd, two 4ths, and a 6th... But who the hell knows.

Pffft the NFL should give us sympathy picks for the years of Matt Cassell & Snott Pioli & the Belcher thing.

Yeah, we were pretty active in free agency last year. And I think we cut a lot of guys that didn't really find work elsewhere...

Thanks for the update. No surprise we got none.

Right now, the Chiefs are very well positioned to be rewarded handsomely next year. They've currently lost more free agents than they've signed. And the value of the contracts they've lost is massively higher than the ones they brought in.

Which is why it's great to focus on signing Houston, Berry, and Smith to extensions this year. We can sign those 3 guys and it doesn't at all affect our ability to earn compensatory picks.

Extend Justin Houston, he said. It'll save us money, he said.

Which means we'll get a 6th only.

LMAO

Unless I'm dramatically misunderstanding your point, extending our own players doesn't factor into the comp picks formula.

Also, you are a smelly douche.

It could save us money vs. trying to extend him next year.

LMAO

Your Mom.

Ding ding ding

Who did we gain and lose last year? The seasons tend to blend together for me at this point since I can't anchor my memories on things like playoff wins.

It doesn't affect comp picks. Dunta Robinson, for example, does not count toward comp because he was cut before his contract expired so the Chiefs didn't technically lose him. Just as Houston, Berry, and Alex Smith will still be under contract if they re-sign.
