Yeah right you guys will be crying all the way up to the pre-season.

My hissy fit is almost over. I'm resigned to a losing season.

Difference is, the Pats, and probably most other teams, don't build their entire philosophy of team building around comp picks. And really, stop comparing us to the Patriots. We are not even in the same universe. They won the SB and then set about getting better. We won 6 games and immediately proceeded to get worse.

The comp picks are one part of the puzzle, not the entire method.
The Bengals were on of the first teams to realize the value of comp picks and incorporate them into their strategy....in fact other teams figured it out too after the Bengals success and began working it into their strategies also. There is another thread on here about what geniuses the browns are for paying $16M for a second round pick....but the Bengals being smart about comp picks is bad?
Look, you take some of the older FAs....for example Reggie Nelson, Peko, etc...and realize that their time is short, their skills are declining, and so forth....and you let them walk maybe a season earlier than you had planned because you will get a comp pick is not a bad, stupid or unreasonable thing to do. In soccer, teams will often sell players that have a year left on their contracts because the team knows when the contract is up the player can leave for free, so they get some value while they can. I see comp picks as a similar move.

Yeah there's no denying that compensatory picks are extremely important to them. To the point where we can pretty much forget about signing external FA's that weren't cut. To the point where it was reported that the Bengals were practically giddy that Zeitler and Whit would probably net them 3rd and 5th rounders. Free Agency is a good tool if used properly, and the Bengals pretty much take themselves out of the running for 90% of the players available.
Getting extra picks is generally smart. It's not smart when you tank a season because you won't fix an o-line using FA because you don't want to lose a damn compensatory pick. That's when it goes from being smart to being stupid. The o-line as it stands will be a disaster this year.

Except there has never been a reaping of these fictitious benefits.

Or are you saying package our comps in 4, 5, 6, and 7 and move up?
I am sayin' that comp picks are not nearly as good as Mikey, et al think they are. See list as proof.
