The comp pick expert at overthecap had the Packers getting two sixth rounder and also a seventh for Newhouse. Too bad it doesn't appear the Packers will be getting that free seventh rounder.
Now Ted is going to have to work harder to pick up that extra undrafted free agent he wants.
@AaronNagler: NFL says Pittsburgh, Baltimore & Green Bay all qualified for an additional pick but cap of 32 picks, per the CBA, had already been reached.
@christomasson: NFL announces compensatory picks. None for Vikings. Only team that gets any in NFC North is Green Bay, two in sixth round.
@RobDemovsky: If my math is right, adding in the compensatory picks, the Packers now have picks Nos:
30
62
94
129
166
205
210
212
247
Only EDS and James Jones qualified for comp picks.
Assuming the average comp structure holds the worst GB will receive for Tramon and House will be 2016 4th rounders. Possibly a 3rd for Tramon.
Baltimore has 3 comp picks. CJ Wilson and Newhouse fell just below the 32 pick cut off. Sucks.
The comp pick expert at overthecap did a pretty good job. 23 of the 32 pick predictions were right on the money and another five were only off by one round. Only four complete misses.
This year's approximate cutoffs for the rounds were estimated at (adjusted the numbers from overthecap based on the awarded comp picks for this season):
3rd round = 8.2 million
4th round = 5.7 million
5th round = 4.05 million
6th round = 2.75 million
7th round = 0.795 million
Those cutoff numbers will increase next year. Even with the increase, it's a virtual lock that the Williams' contract will return the Packers a 4th round compensatory selection. The House deal averaged 6.25 million. Would the 5.7 million dollar cutoff increase enough next off-season to push the House contract from the 4th round down into the 5th round? I doubt it but the possibility is there. As it currently stands the Packers are probably in line for 2 4th round compensatory selections in the 2016 draft.

Whoo hooo! That will sure help when we are picking 32nd!
Of course after seeing his play on-the-field it's hard to consider Newhouse a "loss". 
@PeteDougherty: NFL releases official draft order, Packers 9 picks:
R1: 30
R2: 62 overall
R3: 94
R4 129
R5: 166
R6: 205, 210 (comp), 212 (comp)
R7: 247
So I watched the Dallas playoff game tonight. Unless a WR with crazy value drops into Teds lap I don't see any way GB drafts a WR this year with Abby and Janis looking for a roster spot.
Adams was a beast in that playoff game. 7 for 117 and a huge TD. Dallas took away Jordy and dared the kid to beat them and he came up nails. And remember he had confidence issues (allegedly) going into that game.
Nobody outside GB wanted to see Cobb back in a Packer jersey this year because Devante will be better than anyone's 3rd best DB. Kids going to be a star.
I agree. BPA, but at WR we have depth like nobodies business, especially if the redshirt guys come through....
Agreed Toxic Avenger. All heart but the kid has a infirmary record a mile long. MM stated he and Thorton were doing well in the weight room. I won't bet against him. Nothing wrong with having a good career as a special teamer.
I have more faith in Abby than Thornton right now. That guy just strikes me as completely unprepared for the bigs.
If Abbrederis can be a solid return guy and maybe play a few snaps to give Cobb a breather I think that would be a success this season.
And yeah, I'm not holding my breath on Thornton. Maybe he'll start to get it this year, but he looked to have a little Elmoreitis last year early. I highly doubt he'd encourage TT to not look at DEs in the draft, at least in the mid rounds.
Which of your two favorites will step up in 2015, Thornton or Bradford ?
(not so)Bold prediction...unless they go on IR during 2015 neither Abby nor Thornton will be on the Packers opening day roster in 2016.
patience is a virtue
packer fans are not virtuous
Like those fans who too quickly and erroneously determined that Terrell Buckley sucked.

That shake n bake he did on the db was kind of silly. You usually don't see a guy beat another guy with that move unless its on a playground.
He also flashed in our second biggest win of the year vs. NE.

I did see a interesting tidbit on Packernews that TT wanted Bradford outside and that MM said it was more comprehensive to learn a guy up at OLB and then make the transition inside.
Sounds a little bit like bull**** to me but if the next Jamari Lattimore can produce something working strictly inside this year then I'm all for it. Bradford is what he is, a midget that needs to adjust.
Thornton is the dreaded "potential".
Like those fans who too quickly and erroneously determined that Terrell Buckley sucked.
Buckey was an interesting case to be sure. He definitely was not worth a high 1st round draft pick and definitely could not play the boundary corner like the Packers asked him to do at the time he was with them.
He seemed to do much better with teams outside of the Packers. He's tied for 35th place in NFL history for INTs ahead of guys like Troy Vincent, Herb Adderly, Mike Haynes, Ronde Barber. He's got a Super Bowl ring and played for 14 seasons in the NFL. He sucked with the Packers, but maybe they just didn't use him right as I think they were hoping he could be more of a true shutdown corner on the outside.
Like those fans who too quickly and erroneously determined that Terrell Buckley sucked.
your hero T-buck was cut 6 times in 10 years by impatient NFL teams who just couldn't figure out how to use his epic awesomeness
He's all yours; the only question is if there is enough room left on your full-body Patriots tatoo to get his likeness on there. Good luck

"Buckley will go down in Packers' annals as an unmitigated bust."
"I feel bad because he didn't perform the way we thought he could perform," Wolf said. "I feel bad about that.
He goes to the Dolphins as a $720,000 nickel back, a far cry from the expected all-star cover man who was paid about $5.5 million from the Packers in three seasons.
But what Buckley had going for him, according to those within the organization, was more than offset by deficiencies in size, competitiveness, hands, tackling, practice habits, discipline and responsiveness to big-game situations.
"His important kick return dimension didn't materialize, either. Buckley fumbled one of every five punts that he touched before begging off the return unit late in '93."
"We made a commitment to ourselves," Wolf said. "If we got to a situation where we selected someone high that couldn't play, rather than prolong the agony for both of us, let's bite the bullet and move on."
Opinions vary, players change and even the NFL changes over time
Sure they do. I think Thornton is going to need 4.
Like those fans who too quickly and erroneously determined that Terrell Buckley sucked.
In his case it was true. I don't care how long his career was, in Green Bay he sucked.
We're still talking about Buckley. That's gotta count for something.
Pictures of the guy all over the web. Seems like a happy gfella.
More stupid out there.
@adbrandt: [Nebraska's] Randy Gregory, who admitted testing positive for marijuana at Combine, will get a little cannabis sticker on his card in some War Rooms.
better to have the cannabis about 30 minutes before dinner
How far will he really slide though? If he's deemed a premier pass rusher, I doubt he slides far. Nobody wants another Justin Houston situation.
Rick Spielman asked to apply a pot sticker to Randy Gregory's draft card.
Responds quickly.

He weighed 235 at the Combine.
Nothing goes together like weed and sliders. Nothing.
Nobody wants another Justin Houston Harrell situation.
Yeah, I do think it will be a 3-4 team that takes him though, or maybe a Seattle off-shoot team. Maybe it's just me, but he doesn't look like he could get to 275# and keep his quickness.
Well, no one ever got skinny on the weed. Poor kid, if they'd stop testing him he would gain a ton of weight.
