I'll let David Newton explain why:
If Hardy plays in at least 10 games #Panthers eligible for compensatory pick. https://t.co/Q2Pxx9dRzN

The six game reduction from ten to four games means Hardy is likely to meet the ten game minimum for what would likely be a high compensatory pick to the Panthers in 2016 draft. Well at least we are finally getting a little something back for the Hardy fiasco. A fiasco started by Hardy but then exacerbated by the NFL.
