Compensatory picks have nothing to do with restricted free agents.Originally Posted by FanInAZ

No, in other words our drafts before Elway were so devoid of talent that the few decent players we did get were able to be re-signed due to having so few big money players.

In the 20 years that compensatory picks have been given, the Denver Broncos have received a grand total of 9. Only 2 teams in the NFL have received less, and one of those teams (Houston) has only been around since 2002.

I'd say that's more attributable to the number of free agents Shanahan signed, rather than quality of drafts.

I think it has more to do with the recession.

We signed Peyton Freakin' Manning as a free agent and you expected comp picks???

No, but we deserve about fifteen of them for what McDaniels did to this organization!

We didn't lose anyone with enough talent that would warrant a comp pick without the Manning signing did we?
Senior Member
Eh...who needs comp picks in the 6th and 7th when you can just sign Manning and Welker.
