Compensatory Pick????

[mgilgris]

I just saw that the rams got 2 seventh round compensatory picks for last years losses, any idea on what other teams got picks????

[kurgan74]

The Bengals got a 7th (pick 253). The Ravens picked up 4 incluing a 4th, and the Steelers added a 5th rounder.

[Stripes]

Just a 7th, eh?

I could dig another Kilmer or two.

[bengal4life]

That's cool with me. I wasn't really expecting any. I see possible trade bait in the mix.

[jditty47]

nope we'll keep it. we lost alot of depth on STs this offseason and that extra 7th is gonna be very useful.

[schroomytunes]

Yeah that extra 7th rounder will allow us to draft a QB in the 6th round to groom behind Palmer. Then we can address some areas for depth in the 7th round, hopefully S/TE.

PHOENIX, Ariz. — The Bengals won’t waste any time this season getting national exposure at Paul Brown Stadium.

The NFL unveiled its prime-time teams for opening weekend Monday during the NFL's annual summit and Cincinnati makes its first-ever national-television opener in a Monday night game on ESPN against defending AFC North champion Baltimore.

What would you trade a 7th for? Case of beer?

[Stripes]

I'd imagine he meant the 7th would be packaged in a larger deal, but I have my doubts either way. Marvin loves those draft picks, regardless of round (and so do I).*

*If I missed any obvious sarcasm, or am speaking the obvious, make fun of me as you please.

[HairOnFire]

Just so we're clear...compensatory picks can't be traded.

[jditty47]

until after the draft...

I meant in a larger deal. Unlikely it will happen but it's always fun to think of what could be. We could get a case of beer and give to Oneal, Henry, and Henry's underagers.

[Whur CHad At?]

Well if he likes draft picks, he better start producing Pro Bowlers. Over all the draft picks he has only had 1 pro Bowler. Looks like the draft hasnt helped at all since 2004.

[Stripes]

So Odell Thurman (in his rookie season), Chris Henry, Tab Perry, Eric Ghiaciuc, Johnathan Joseph, Andrew Whitworth, Domata Peko, and Ethan Kilmer haven't helped at all?!
