NFL announces 2018 compensatory draft picks
The NFL announced 32 compensatory selections for the 2018 NFL Draft on Friday.
Compensatory picks are awarded to teams that lost more or better free agents than they acquired in the previous year. The value of each compensatory draft choice is determined by "a formula based on salary, playing time, and postseason honors."
