That said, why are people in love with compensatory picks? It doesn't help you at ALL this year. So what if they get an extra 4th rounder in 2017 if it means having a shit WR corps in 2016?
I really don't understand the love of compensatory picks either, other than half the fan base has been brainwashed to think they are something incredible. You're basically saying "I'll pass on something that can improve my team this year for the possibility of a middle round draft pick next year". Where is the "win now" mentality?
I heard Soloman Wilcots on NFL Network earlier. He said that a team has to build through the draft, but you're always going to have holes either from people who have left or picks you missed on, and that is what you should look for in free agency. Bring in those one or two difference makers who can put you over the top. I completely agree with this sentiment.
