Ross comp pick

Here's their projection for the 2021 draft: https://overthecap.com/draft/

I've been following their site for a few years, and since there are only 32 total comp picks given out (basically a round 8), and they start with the biggest deals and go down from there, we likely don't receive anything if he signs a deal for less than about 3 million per year. And unless he has a big second half I doubt anybody gives him that.

That's why I don't think this was about the comp pick. If there were offers, the Bengals must've figured they were less of an asset than having a fast WR who knows the offense for the second half of the year. Meaning, what if AJ goes down again, and we activate Ross? And what if he has a big game (like he did against Seattle) that nets another win? That's not an impossible scenario, and I guess worth more to them than whatever conditional pick teams were offering.

Great point, didn't think of it that way. So they're valuing this insurance policy more than the probability of a 6th-7th round player contributing. I can follow that logic
