I'm curious, does the formula used in 2012 appear to be the same as (or similar to) what you've seen in previous years?

In general terms, the formula is the same. The order of the comp picks almost perfectly matches the order I had for those players' values, other than a few instances where the values were very close. I need to double-check all of my data to see whether the specific formula seems to have been adjusted at all.

At the very least, there were no surprises this year -- no players who should have counted but did not, no players who did not count but should have and no mysterious reasons for any of the picks' values (like the 10-year rule that was revealed just a few years ago).

How do you think things worked with Indianapolis and Kerry Collins? They signed Collins (10-year veteran), lost Clint Session and Charlie Johnson, yet got comp picks for both Session and Johnson. Does that might mean that a 10-year veteran FA signing does not cancel out any other FA losses for the signing team? (I thought it might cancel out, but at a maximum 5th round value.) I am wondering how things might work out with, say, the GB Packers signing J.Saturday & how that will effect 2013 comp picks. Thanks for your thoughts!

Kerry Collins did not count because he signed after August 20, which was last year's equivalent of a normal June 1. UFAs who sign after June 1 and are not given a June 1 tender don't count in the comp picks equation.

I would like to know your thoughts on the Atlanta net value pick. The total annual value of Edwards plus Kelly is almost identical to Dahl plus Koenen. -ct17

Thanks for the reply! I had forgotten about the June 1st rule with the shortened FA period last year and did not even think of that.

So, by chance, do you know if a 10-year veteran FA signing (before June 1st) cancels out any FA losses for the signing team at the signed value, at a maximum 5th round value (if the value is greater than the 5th round), or not at all?
