Compensatory picks aren't that reliable. Both in that you don't know what you would get for letting any single free agent walk and the fact that it also factors in what free agents you sign. If the Jags brought in some big free agents, they wouldn't necessarily get anything from letting Monroe walk. It's not like baseball where free agents get classified based on the compensatory picks they would return.
Maybe I was talking about another alligator
I know that feel brother.

To be fair most Packer fans have only seen 3 black people in person in their life.
I watched some of the previous Giants games from earlier this year just to see the line play and what was wrong. I thought the biggest problem thing was that they just looked stiff. Like they can't move. Can't get to the second level. No lateral movement. Except Pugh. Who seems to just need more strength and work on technique. Like he doesn't get himself in the right position to give and absorb punches all the time. I know that they have been rotating guys b/c of health so maybe it will get better. But at least the first few games the interior was essentially shutting your offense down b/c of Snee
i'm pretty sure you can't put yourself on you're own ignore list.

Hindsight being 20/20 I'm not sure I understand what they're doing with Myers. He has never been and will never be a blocker. If they were using him as the move TE and primarily as a receiving threat - ok. Maybe the Robinson injury is forcing them to use him as a blocker but that's just one example out of MANY of how poor a blocker he really is. The 3rd and 1 pitch to Wilson was blown up because NONE of the TE's in front of him could block! I need to gif that play during my lunch actually and post it.Brandon Myers' blocking

Speaking of TE's, Pat Traina has another excellent article on the Giants defense and our weakness against tight ends. Worth a read as it has some good x's and o's stuff:

I think Pugh will be a solid starter - just needs to hit the weight room and add more strength. I think he can be a starter inside at guard too if need be (say if a good OT is available that the FO likes).
But yeah, Snee's done. He supposedly is having trouble moving and is likely going to get surgery and head to IR. Baas is also injured and it's truly a guessing game when he's healthy or not. Hopefully they can get to do the smart thing and shed major money off the books by having Snee, Baas, and Diehl moved out.

The thing is, Brown hasn't been all that better than Batiste was last year. The only reason the Steelers do this is if they think it is a change of scenery thing. Robert Quinn made him look like a traffic cone

If
when
The problem is we'll be overpaying Beatty for playing RT in the scenario thanks to the contract we just gave him. Though the team has to evaluate how he continues on this season because outside of the Dallas game, he's been dreadful. Poor technique, no power or "move" as squicken mentioned. He's always been a finesse type of player so he relied heavily on technique to be effective in the past. No clue what the hell is going on with him outside of just being lazy after getting his payday.

Two fun facts about the Monroe trade. One he comes with a cap hit of 2.9 mil. We have 1.6 in space so Ravens need to clear up 1.3 so expect to here about some more movement. Two it's the first time Ozzie has ever done a mid-season trade.
Lololol!

Nearly 5 million in salary....
Though its guaranteed in 2013 and he can be cut next year for nothing.

Not even the best linebacker in his division.

i may have to go try that, Skeeters is good.
Steelers don't have that kind of cap space.
To answer the question of why the Steelers would do this: It's not about finding a long term starter, it's about putting Adams and Gilbert on notice.

Yes he is. Justin Houston is a better linebacker than Von Miller.
