It's totes unfair for Seattle to only have one chance a year to get an all pro defensive back in the fifth round.

Because there are new regimes all the time, and at this rate the draft is such a crapshoot that having multiple picks in comp selections, especially 3 and 4s, really make the playing field uneven.

Comp picks never made sense to me, and poo poo like the Charles clay contract show why. He's not eligible for a comp pick bc we transition tagged him... Meaning we could have had him On our roster if we paid out the nose. Kinda like New England having the option on revis... But here we are. No fundamental difference, but the system is so flawed it helps only one of the two teams

To be fair, the "not picking up the roster bonus" gimmick getting you a comp pick doesn't make a lot of sense, but on the other hand that so many teams seem to not use it is utterly baffling. They should go away, but it's baffling how some teams exploit it so well and others just don't bother. Everyone knew the Dolphins should have pulled the tag from Clay so they'd get a comp pick, but they didn't. That's not on the comp pick system, thats on the dolphins being idiots.

That the Patriots will get an extra 3rd because of the Revis rental though is just so loving absurd that although I love it I can't defend it.

Well yeah, teams that draft well getting extra picks is just as stupid as giving poorly run teams extra picks to waste. Comp picks are stupid no matter who gets them

Is it even a guarantee Revis is going to net a comp pick? I know OTC thinks they will but there's not a ton of history around declined team options and there's no documentation on exactly how comps are awarded, correct?

It's not guaranteed, but I believe they found a specific case of a declined team option netting a comp pick. I think it's public who a comp pick is associated with.

I think the original intention of comp picks was to level the playing field of smaller market teams, but at this point no one in the NFL can honestly say they can't compete financially.

Instead the systen rewards teams like Green Bay who invest heavily in scouting and don't overpay as a philosophy, or teams like the patriots who have figured out how to game the system. Having competent front offices should be its own reward.

Not all teams have the negotiating room that the patriots do. What free agent is going to agree to an additional year with a team option with the browns or buccaneers? The browns gave Alex Mack THREE years of player options to get him to sign

Just make the team option a billion dollars or something like the Revis one where everyone knows it's not going to happen. It's not a real year, the team tacks it on so they get a free pick and the player gets an extra 10k or something, plus bragging rights about how valuable his contract is.

Apparently yanking the tag would have gotten them some grief from the league or the union or some poo poo. You can't yank the tag after you assign it just bc you think someone else is taking your dude.

Trust me I was calling for it the whole time.

It's especially funny because the difference between picking 7th and picking 4th has nowhere near the benefit of getting an extra 3rd and a 5th.

Barnwell and Mays did a redraft of the 2014 draft since that's the kind of thing you do when you have a NFL podcast in April, with the basic gist of teams still need what they needed, but they get to see a year into the future. All the same trades happen except the Seahawks at #32 since that was pretty much just for Teddy B.

pre:
			Bill Barnwell		Robert Mays
1	Texans		Khalil Mack		Teddy Bridgewater
2	Rams		Aaron Donald		Odell Beckham
3	Jaguars		Odell Beckham		Khalil Mack
4	Bills		Greg Robinson		Sammy Watkins
5	Raiders		Teddy Bridgewater	Mike Evans
6	Falcons		Zach Martin		Aaron Donald
7	Buccaneers	Sammy Watkins		Jadeveon Clowney
8	Browns		Mike Evans		Kelvin Benjamin
9	Vikings		CJ Mosley		Zach Martin
10	Lions		Jake Matthews		Taylor Lewan
11	Titans		Blake Bortles		Derek Carr
12	Giants		Anthony Barr		CJ Mosley
13	Rams		Derek Carr		Jake Matthews
14	Bears		Jason Verrett		Calvin Pryor
15	Steelers	Timmy Jernigan		Anthony Barr
16	Cowboys		Ha Ha Clinton-Dix	Joel Bitonio
17	Ravens		Bashaud Breeland	Jason Verrett
18	Jets		Kelvin Benjamin		Blake Bortles
19	Dolphins	 Taylor Lewan		Greg Robinson
20	Saints		Kyle Fuller		Kyle Fuller
21	Packers		Chris Borland		Chris Borland
22	Browns		Joel Bitonio		Tim Jernigan
23	Chiefs		Deone Bucannon		Ryan Shazier
24	Bengals		Ryan Shazier		Aaron Lynch
25	Chargers	Justin Gilbert		Jack Mewhort
26	Eagles		Calvin Pryor		Ha Ha Clinton-Dix
27	Cardinals	Brandin Cooks		Brandon Linder
28	Panthers	Ja'Wuan James		Ja'Wuan James
29	Patriots	Jadeveon Clowney	Justin Gilbert
30	49ers		Dominique Easley	Brandin Cooks
31	Broncos		Bradley Roby		Jarvis Landry
32	Seahawks	Dee Ford		Martavis Bryant
Of note, Mays goes full TFF and has 4 guards go in the first round. Mays also talks Barnwell into Borland on the Packers for that one year story because it's a huge strength for a near SB team's biggest weakness. Barnwell has Clowney falling to the Patriots but expects another team to trade up to take him before then but I would be really cool with.
