That is correct. and the end of the third at that. The best compensatory pick imaginable would be 97th overall or the 33rd pick in the 3rd round. Barring forfeited picks of course.

I wouldn't lose any sleep over it, the last time we picked 97th overall.....we Fuad up.

Thanks, and ouch :unsure:

Our 2015 draft, 9 picks, is the most we've had since the 2010 draft. In 2010 we had 10 picks, four in the 6th round and two in the 7th round.

And here's what we did with them...

2nd Round (48) QB Jimmy Clausen

3rd Round (78) WR Brandon LaFell

3rd Round (89) WR Armanti Edwards

4th Round (124) DE Eric Norwood

6th Round (175) DE Greg Hardy

6th Round (198) WR David Gettis

6th Round (202) S Jordan Pugh

6th Round (204) QB Tony Pike

7th Round (223) CB R.J. Stanford

7th Round (249) CB Robert McClain

Worth remembering we had no first rounder because of the prior year's trade up for Everette Brown. And then Hurney proceeded to trade away next year's second (which turned out to be pick 33) to get Armanti Edwards.

That draft became the lead in to our worst season since 2001.

I'm sorry I looked that up :unsure:

Crazy thought. Adrian Peterson doesn't want to play for Minnesota. Period. If he's willing to just sit out instead of play for them, Minnesota might consider a low rd draft pick to get something for him. Anyone willing to give up a pick or two to get him? Cap restructuring would have to happen but it's a theoretical anyways.

Hey there, thought I'd check in with you on this again now that the 2015 comp picks are out.  I've written an article to explain some of what I got wrong:

 

http://overthecap.com/evaluation-of-the-2015-compensatory-draft-picks-projection-part-1/

 

There are two Panther-specific items of note:

 

1) As I thought, the Panthers weren't going to get shut out of comp picks, as they got a 5th for Mitchell and a 6th for Munnerlyn as I anticipated in one scenario.  But the 6th for Munnerlyn didn't come how I thought it would.  Domenik Hixon qualified in favor of Carolina, because apparently players who are cut with an injury settlement (as Hixon was from the Bears after he tore his ACL in OTAs) qualify even they are cut before Week 10. This makes some sense as to not punish teams for someone like Hixon who could have very well had played out the contract if not for injury.  On the other bubble players, I was wrong on Joe Webb (who I had the least confidence in anyway) but I was right on Antoine Cason and Ed Dickson.

 

2) Something weird happened with Seattle that I didn't anticipate, as one of their projected 5ths got demoted to a 6th.  The best explanation I can give is that Brandon Browner got devalued for his four-game suspension (doing the math on that makes it fit perfectly in the list).  This obviously didn't affect the Panthers for 2015, but it could wreak havoc on the projected 3rd for Greg Hardy in 2016 if he is suspended for a lengthy time.  If he gets six games the comp pick could fall to a 4th, and if he gets ten it could fall to a 6th.
