Though the compensation formula is arcane and unpredictable, don’t expect the Pittsburgh Steelers to be walking away with an extra pick in this year’s draft. Over the Cap’s Nick Korte posted his final projections for comp picks and the Steelers don’t appear anywhere on the list.
The Washington Redskins would receive the highest comp pick after losing Kirk Cousins to the Minnesota Vikings last offseason. The New England Patriots are projected to earn a pair of third round picks for the departures of Nate Solder and Malcolm Butler.
