It was hoped that the Pittsburgh Steelers would at least receive a strong haul in the form of compensatory picks when they failed to retain several key free agents this offseason. For a variety of reasons, largely in their own control, however, they are only projected to receive one compensatory pick, and it is projected to be in the fourth round.
That is the conclusion reached by Nick Korte of Over the Cap, who specializes in projecting the compensatory selections every year and has as good an understanding of how the compensatory formula works as anybody else.
