Will we get a comp pick for Snacks?

Since Jenkins was released prior to week 10 , we should receive a 4th round compensatory pick .

 

We should get a third but I admit I still don't understand the structure of comp picks

 

I'd be willing to bet that is why Jenkins was released when he was.

 

Jenkins?

 

Not the OLB we drafted, but the veteran DL we signed as a FA, Jarvis Jenkins.

 

We signed Forte in Free Agency, so it may cancel out some of the loss of Snacks, or at least reduce the comp pick to a late rd.

You have to take into account your signings too, not just your losses (Snacks). It will be based on the amount of the signing, playing time etc.

 

Does it make that much of a difference when one guy was a first team all-pro and the other was very average (if that)?

 

Yes, post-season honors and contract size factor in.

 

I think the Patriots getting their compensatory picks first is also a factor.

 

Playing time is a factor, when they went on IR, so I think we will get a comp pick, I'm not expecting a 3rd or 4th like some people believe.

I think a 5th or 6th Rd pick is more likely. we will have to wait till the end of March/early April when they're announced.

The comp pick formula is one the most convoluted processes in the NFL.

 

as long as its not a 2nd round pick we'll take whatever the NFL gives us.

 

nfl: the jets are warded a 2nd round comp pick
jets: no thanks, we'll pass

 

Jenkins was cut 4 days prior to week 10 removing him from the equation used to determine compensatory picks Per over the caps new updates, the Jets will receive a 4th round pick for Harris

Jenkins was released just prior to week 10 so he was released just in time Nov. 9th I believe. Per over the cap. We are in line to receive a 4 th round pick for Harrison.

Thinking we are slated to get a 4th round pick which will come in handy.
