Packers employed this strategy for years and it's paid off bigtime. They've let big talents go in order to gain comp picks without overpaying.

With their comp picks, they've recently acquired solid talents such as Mike Daniel, Davon House, Josh Sitton and this year Richard Rodgers.
They've also drafted Matt Hasselbeck and Marco Rivera in the past using comp picks.

Love this strategy. Having 4 picks in the top 100 gives you one extra chance to hit on a player, or use a 3rd or 4th to move up to get a player you like without losing value.
The best drafting teams don't even have that great of a positive draft ratio. More picks you have the better statically chance to hit.

Dorsey drafted Knile Davis with our 3rd rd comp pick in 2013. I expect more to come via this strategy.
Probably get a 3rd for Tamba next season.
