The New England Patriots led all teams with four comp picks, including two in the third round (#98 &amp; 100). New England will have 14 total picks in the 2020 draft.<\/p>\n<p>The Houston Texans, Minnesota Vikings, New York Giants, Denver Broncos, Philadelphia Eagles and Seattle Seahawks each boast three compensatory selections. Houston earned the first comp pick of the 2020 draft (#97). Baltimore and Miami each will receive two extra picks while Chicago, Dallas, Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay, Washington and the LA Rams add one selection each.<\/p>\n<p>New England lost seven compensatory free agents during the 2019 free agency offseason, including Trent Brown, Trey Flowers and Chris Hogan, and gained just one player.<\/p>\n<p>Compensatory free agents are determined by a formula based on salary, playing time and postseason honors. The formula was developed by the NFL Management Council. Not every free agent lost or signed by a club is covered by this formula. No club may receive more than four compensatory picks in any one year. If a club qualifies for more than four compensatory picks after offsetting each CFA lost by each CFA gained of an equal or higher value, the four highest remaining selections will be awarded to the club.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>List of compensatory picks allotted to teams at end of\u00a0 rounds #3 thru #7 for the 2020 NFL Draft:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Round 3<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n97 Houston Texans<br \/>\n98 New England Patriots<br \/>\n99 New York Giants<br \/>\n100 New England Patriots<br \/>\n101 Seattle Seahawks<br \/>\n102 Pittsburgh Steelers<br \/>\n103 Philadelphia Eagles<br \/>\n104 Los Angeles Rams<br \/>\n105 Minnesota Vikings<br \/>\n106 Baltimore Ravens<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Round 4<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n139 Tampa Bay Buccaneers<br \/>\n140 Chicago Bears<br \/>\n141 Miami Dolphins<br \/>\n142 Washington Redskins<br \/>\n143 Baltimore Ravens<br \/>\n144 Seattle Seahawks<br \/>\n145 Philadelphia Eagles<br \/>\n146 Philadelphia Eagles<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Round 5<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n178 Denver Broncos<br \/>\n179 Dallas Cowboys<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Round 6<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n212 New England Patriots<br \/>\n213 New England Patriots<br \/>\n214 Seattle Seahawks<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Round 7<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n247 New York Giants<br \/>\n248 Houston Texans<br \/>\n249 Minnesota Vikings<br \/>\n250 Houston Texans<br \/>\n251 Miami Dolphins<br \/>\n252 Denver Broncos<br \/>\n253 Minnesota Vikings<br \/>\n254 Denver Broncos<br \/>\n255 New York Giants<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Frank Coyle is a long-time scout with nationwide ties with coaches, scouts and player agents.
