NFLdotCom Projected Compensatory Picks

[ivotuk]

Seattle Seahawks Projected compensatory picks:

Round 4, Round 5, Round 5, Round 5

Key free-agent losses:
Edge Boye Mafe, $20 million, Bengals
RB Kenneth Walker III, $14.4 million, Chiefs
S Coby Bryant, $13.3 million, Bears
CB Riq Woolen, $12 million, Eagles

Analysis:
As is often the experience for teams in the aftermath of winning the Super Bowl, the offseason led to a bit of a free-agent exodus for the Seahawks. GM John Schneider spent the bulk of his resources on deals for his own players, so Seattle is positioned quite nicely in the compensatory game. Mafe’s $20 million APY should return a fourth-rounder to the Seahawks, while the contracts for Walker, Bryant and Woolen figure to deliver a trio of fifth-rounders.

Still just projections, but sounds nice. Mr Schneider has done pretty well in rounds 4 and 5. And that's a bit of ammo for what he loves to do on draft day, wheel and deal.

3, 5th rounder’s in a row is pretty valuable especially in a draft expected to be really good

It’s gonna be nice to have a bunch of pics to package for our trade up from 32 next year

Yeah those 5th rounders may get us moved up to 31st

I would be beyond thrilled if that happens.

And I'm guessing that the 2027 4th rounder we used in trade with CLE to draft Beau Stephens will be the comp pick... and not our native 4th rounder.

Can comp picks be traded now? Or am I just a generation behind on league rules... ?
