    Default Chiefs 2017 Comp pick (projections) and they can be traded now

    Sean Smith, 3rd; Jeff Allen, 4th; Donald Stephenson, 6th; and Tyvon Branch, 6th.

    Also for the first time ever Comp picks can be traded like any other asset.

    C4L....You gotta 'spain this to me. I have always understood that compensatory picks could not be traded. When did this change? Links please. I am NOT doubting you....you have always been pretty damned accurate with your statements but in this case I'd like to see some backup before I start putting our compensatory picks into the "trade bait" column for 2017.

    Kind regards....Kris.

    NFL clubs passed a resolution Wednesday to make compensatory draft picks tradable beginning in 2017, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported.

    This is the compensatory draft pick proposal that just passed. It will be effective beginning in 2017
    1:39 PM - 2 Dec 2015









    The NFL Competition Committee recommended the change last month and viewed the measure as a way to give clubs more flexibility in draft preparation.

    Thirty-two compensatory picks were awarded to 14 different clubs in the 2015 NFL Draft, with the earliest compensatory picks slotted at the end of the third round.The NFL awards compensatory picks to teams based on whether they lose more free agents that are determined to be compensatory than they acquire, with a maximum of four picks for a team.

    The most famous player drafted with a compensatory pick? It's Tom Brady (2000), but he has good company. Former Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Larry Allen, a Pro Football Hall of Famer, was drafted with a compensatory pick in 1994. Former Eagles great Brian Dawkins (1996) and ex-Steelers star Hines Ward (1998) were also picked with a compensatory selection.

    According to Ian Rappaport this was decided on December 2015 and will start in the 2017 draft and if we get the comp picks we should we will have 11 picks to do with what we want

    Is this accounting for the pick Goodell took away from us? Even if it doesn't, 10 picks (all tradeable) sounds nice.

    Even 9 would be damned nice since we got robbed by Goodell. And all of them being available for trade bait would be HUGE!
