Eagles and Rams get four extra picks each

KAPALUA, Hawaii (AP) Philadelphia and St. Louis will get four compensatory picks in next months' NFL draft and Carolina, New England and San Francisco will get three each among the 32 extra choices mandated by the league's labor agreement.

A total of 14 teams will get extra selections in the third through seventh rounds, based on the value of the free agents they lost in 2004.

The Titans, who lost defensive linemen Jevon Kearse to Philadelphia and Robaire Smith to Houston, will get the first of the choices, 96th overall at the end of the third round. Denver will get two compensatory choices in that round, 97th and 101st. Seattle, Kansas City and New England also will get third-rounders.

The number of picks a team receives and the rounds they come in are based on a formula that takes into account salary, playing time and postseason honors by players they lost. The maximum any one team can get is four picks.

What are these for? I'm guessing that one is compensation for the Broncos employing Jake Plummer, but what's the other one for?

The other one is for keeping Mike Shanahan longer than the 10 year "effective" period.

Damn how many picks does philly have now? Combine that with the picks from us and Miami and they are loaded. Wouldnt be too suprised if they move up in the 1st.

Tags is paying Bowlen back since PB is chairman of the owner's committee that negotiates the league's TV deals.

Who?...
Dude had 14.5 sacks last year.... 26 in the last two years, he could take Hicks place anytime for all I care... the Cardinals actually passed on Hicks to sign him, and Hicks came back to us.

Only because Shanny was smart enough to let B. Berry and his sack leader title go to the Cards.

Nice to see the Chiefs have a third-round pick now...

Now THERE'S a guy that's all about the money. Who in their right mind would willingly go to the Cardinals if it wasn't about the money? :hmmm:

A subtle repayment for the 3rd already taken away? They lost Delta and Gold, who else?
