Will Denver switch picks with washington because of the trade earlier in the season?

[broncsyanks]

no denver gets washingtons 3rd and 4th rounders

[NOFX_1]

Really? Why?

[broncsyanks]

trading with ashley lelie

atlanta got lelie
wash got TJ duckett
Denver got 3rd and 4th rounder from wash

[NOFX_1]

I thought it was a lot more complicated than that.

[broncsyanks]

the complication you are thinking of was dependant on where each atlanta and wash landed in teh draft. that being said this has already been reported that we get washingtons 3rd and 4th picks which are really high and valuable

[NOFX_1]

Thats cool with me.

[jroakes]

How is it that the N.Y. Giants pick before us and there are in the playoffs?

[tnedator]

no denver gets washingtons 3rd and 4th rounders

Are you sure it is the 3rd and 4th rounders and not just a 3rd? I thought the 3rd and 4th rounders came into play if Washingont was further back in the draft.

because the NFC sucks

[fraguela09]

i think Denver gets Washington's 3rd round pick... they get washington's 4th round pick NEXT year. BUt, with Redskins picking 5th... that 3rd rounder is pretty much a 2nd round pick... #69 right? I think Denver also will get high draft pick as compensation for D-williams... and ... comp picks for losing Mike Anderson and Trevor Pryce.

they dont, denver picks 20th, the giants are at best 21

Not sure how compensation works in the case of a tragedy like with DW.

I am not sure where we land with Pryce and Anderson. I thought both were cut, along with Putzier, and if that is the case, then their is no compensation.

All we could possibly be compensated was for any free agents that we failed to resign, and then that is offset by free agents we signed. The NFL has some formula that takes into account the free agents you signed and lost, and how each performed and tries to determine if you came up short, and then compensates you in the later rounds.

From what I can remember, I don't think we are going to get much compensation for lost free agents this year.

They have to be free agents to be regarded as worthy for a comp. pick, they must also be a starter or key player. The only real chance of a comp. pick would be for Monsanto Pope, I think he started in Indianapolis and he would bring a late second day pick 5th or 6th round, if anything.

As far as tragedy picks...I am not sure the league even does such a thing, though they should. I think before the first round even begins they should do memorial picks for the teams that lost players or had major tragedy: Denver, New Orleans...etc. It would go a long way in relations and helping the team involved.

Pope went to the New York Jets. :confused:

I do wish we had more coverage on this. 1-2 minute reviews over the day once an hour, and then we get some 7-10 minute coverage... at 2 A.M. :coffee:

Sorry, I got him confused with Montae Reagor...who knows, it is hard to keep up with our busts! But still, I believe Pope was cut by the Jets, unless I am mistaken and he would bring nothing in comp. picks. I do not think we will have any for loss of Free Agents -- likely only from trade or the Williams tragedy, if any.

LOL..Thanx for the chuckle, lancane! :salute:

I wonder what happens to his cap number? If a player is released, traded, or retires the team eats the cap hit. How does it work in D-Will's case?

[cutlerfan]

What draft picks do we get - like.

We get one #1 pick ,

#2nd round picks?

#3rd round picks?

#4th round picks?

Thanks

My guess would be that any guartanteed money (of which there may not be any left) and the remainder of his signing bonus will count against the cap. I am not aware of a special rule where they wouldn't take a cap hit. I can see why there should be one, but I can't remember what has happened to other teams in similar situations.

[tprice17044]

Why would the Giants pick before the Broncos??

[jpc925]

Why would the Giants pick before the Broncos??

Silly rules...but the rules are the rules:

- SB Winner picks last
- SB Loser picks second to last
- All other teams are placed based on win-loss record

In this case, the Broncos (9-7) were better than the Giants (8-8)
