I forget....who did we lose to free agency last year for which it would have been remotely possible to receive a compensatory pick?  Not defending Idzik, just can't remember.

 

Also this is a projection, nothing official yet.  Perhaps a change to the thread title is in order....

You're being very naive if you think all there is to being compensated those picks is just sitting in your chair during the offseason and see what the NFL is handing to you. Like teams just walk into the offseason going "oh my, look, out of nowhere we get rewarded something! Wow! DIdn't see that one coming!". This is part of what GM's have to figure out. Well, the smart ones at least. The Patriots have. The Ravens have. The Seahawks have. They know how to structure contracts, when to let guys walk, how to replace them, and they're still on top. The Jets haven't figured that out and again, so yes, this is on sh*tzik and Tanny. NE is a prime example. They let go their elite corner (Talib), and instead of replacing him with another UFA corner they get the 3rd round pick everyone knew they'd get by losing Talib, and they actually upgraded the corner position by picking up Revis who doesn't count against the comp. picks because he was cut.

 

You bring in that turd of a corner (Patterson) and you cut him. You extend Sanchez, you cut him. You sign CJ, you (probably) cut him after a year. So we don't even get a pick for him next year. sh*tzik & Tanny in action.

Free agents that you sign offset the free agents that you lose. So the Decker and Giacomini signings offset the losses of Cro and Austin. Comp picks are based solely on the value of the contracts of lost players vs. the number of free agents your team signs. So Cro going to the pro bowl wouldn't change anything.

The only way this is Tanny or Idzik's fault is in that they didn't sign enough players worth all that much on the open market.

Cromartie doesn't count because he got cut.

No. We released him in March. He wasn't a FA loss. He doesn't factor into the award of any compensatory picks or offsetting any compensatory picks.

 

that's right on cromartie, forgot we cut him. Howard was a FA and was a starter for oakland, so perhaps we get something there?

I don't get it.. Why is the op angry? The only way you're rewarded comp picks is if you lose a valuable fa and do not sign a fa of your own. Jets lost Howard and signed Breno. They also signed decker. Would you rather they didn't sign those guys and instead get a .4th round pick?

LOL  People blast the hell out of idzik for not signing enoiugh guys and spending enough money, they  then blast him for not getting Comp picks, something you only get if you lose players to fa and don't sign fa of a similar value.

This here. 

 

Idzik got us comps pick last year and he surely knew about the system. The way to kind of manipulate the system is to sign players that were released. But the players that were released last year didn't match up with our needs. 

 

Also this system is moreso set up for the better teams in the league that are losing quality players and are close to the cap. With our massive cap room we are going to sign FA's the next few offseasons and likely wont be getting many picks this way.

Everything you're saying is dead on.  I thought about this when Revis was available and it was one of the reasons I was absolutely shocked we didn't pursue him.  I really don't think Idzik had any idea what he was doing.

I don't know the rules either, but then why would NE get a 3rd for Talib after UFA signing Revis?

The way it basically works is, for the purpose of quantifying comp. picks, is they determine how many of your own free agents - FAs whose contracts expired - that someone else signed away, and compare that to free agents of other teams that you signed away from them. When you cut a player, though, that goes out the window. You didn't "lose" that player to free agency; you cut him.

Revis was not a FA "lost" by Tampa, in this regard. He was still under contract with them for 2014 for $16 million and they cut him. Therefore, for these calculations, Revis was not a "true" UFA. His contract didn't expire by reaching its natural end or by the player opting out of voidable years; he was cut by Tampa.

Had Revis only been signed to a 1 year deal with Tampa, and THEN the Pats signed him, then he would have counted against their compensatory pick haul (and it probably would have been Talib that got canceled out).

That's why Cromartie doesn't count as a FA lost by us. He wasn't a FA: we cut him. Howard and Decker both do count, though.
