Jets Receive 3rd Round Compensatory Selection A total of 32 compensatory choices in the 2006 NFL Draft have been awarded to 19 teams, the NFL announced. Under terms of the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement, a team losing more or better compensatory free agents than it acquires in a year is eligible to receive compensatory draft picks. The number of picks a team receives equals the net loss of compensatory free agents up to a maximum of four. The 32 compensatory choices announced will supplement the 223 choices in the seven rounds of the 2006 NFL Draft (April 29-30). This year, the compensatory picks will be positioned within the third through seventh rounds based on the value of the compensatory free agents lost. Compensatory free agents are determined by a formula based on salary, playing time and postseason honors. The formula was developed by the NFL Management Council. Not every free agent lost or signed by a club is covered by this formula. Three clubs this year (Buffalo, Seattle and Washington) will receive a compensatory pick even though they did not suffer a net loss of compensatory free agents. Under the formula, the compensatory free agents these teams lost were ranked higher than the ones they signed (by a specified point differential based upon salary and performance). The following 2006 draft picks have been determined by the NFL Management Council: Round Overall selection Team 3 33-97 New York Jets 4 33-130 Denver 4 34-131 Pittsburgh 4 35-132 Baltimore 4 36-133 Pittsburgh 5 33-165 Green Bay 5 34-166 Baltimore 5 35-167 Pittsburgh 5 36-168 Philadelphia 5 37-169 Tennessee 6 33-202 Tampa Bay 6 34-203 Baltimore 6 35-204 Philadelphia 6 36-205 New England 6 37-206 New England 6 38-207 Indianapolis 6 39-208 Baltimore 7 33-241 Tampa Bay 7 34-242 St. Louis 7 35-243 St. Louis 7 36-244 Tampa Bay 7 37-245 Tennessee 7 38-246 Tennessee 7 39-247 Detroit 7 40-248 Buffalo 7 41-249 Seattle 7 42-250 Washington 7 43-251 Houston 7 44-252 New Orleans 7 45-253 Green Bay 7 46-254 San Francisco 7 47-255 Oakland Picks 251-255 are supplemental compensatory picks (based upon draft-order formula) to fulfill the number of draft choices permitted by agreement with the NFL Players Association in the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
