Depending on what the Packers do with the remainder of FA, I think 3/30 should be good for a 4th round comp. pick.

Reminder: neither signing so far affects the calculation, as both were cuts rather than UFA's.

 

[Dantés]

Graham may also net a later round comp. pick, which is surprising. I never thought that would happen.

Graham was cut. How does not he qualify for a comp pick?

Green Bay released Graham, so I'm not sure a comp pick would be awarded.

I am surprised at how much the Bears were willing to pay for the 33-year-old's services....

Released players prior to the end of their contracts I didn't think factor into the compensatory picks, no?

cut players do not, players with expired contracts that move on, do

 

[AmishMafia]

Wait, do cut players result in comp picks?

It all depends on other signings and player performance. I think we will be surprised at what some of these guys are going to get. I think Graham will have a poor season with Trubisky and not garner much in that dept.

The question was rhetorical.

Oh no, you're right. Graham not a part of the formula.

they say performance is part of it, but in the past it does seem to be favored higher in the contract/money side of things when determining comp picks. But it's a super secret formula, so who knows exactly how it's determined.

History has shown that the predominant factor in assigning comp picks is the size of the free agent contract. Were Graham's departure actually eligible for a comp pick, his sucking with the Bears would likely have little affect if he took the requisite number of snaps. If he ended up on IR in training camp that might have an affect.

According to ESPN's Chris Mortensen, Bulaga has agreed to a five-year, $33.75 million deal, which equates to $6.75 million per season.

 

[tynimiller]

The Bulaga deal makes no sense to me...Castonzo gets $33M for two years and Bulaga basically the same for 5???

 

[tynimiller]

Spotrac has Bulaga's deal listed as 3 years for $30M that makes much more sense.

 

[HardRightEdge]

According to ESPN's Chris Mortensen, Bulaga has agreed to a five-year, $33.75 million deal, which equates to $6.75 million per season.

Other reports say 3 for 30, which is more plausible.

 

[bigbubbatd]

3 years and 30 million. Will be interesting to see the guarantees. The Packers will get some nice comp picks for Martinez and Bulaga

Fackrell to the Giants for 1 year around 5 million

 

[gopkrs]

Vince Biegel signs one year $9 1/2 million

No lie, this is probably the main one in decent years i wasnt a fan of giving up on. Glad for him.

I'm sorry, but this killed me.

Thank you for the laughs.

It did me as well as I discovered the error and decided to leave it as the amusement could then be enjoyed by all.

Yes, lie. Biegel signed an original round restricted tender, around $2.1 mil for one year, maybe a little higher under the new CBA. I don't think anybody is going to offer him $9.5 mil while giving up a 4th. round pick to boot.
