Unless I'm forgetting something -- and I easily could be -- it would seem that the Patriots might be in line to get compensatory picks for Samuel, Stallworth, and Gay. I don't think they added any FAs on the level of any of those three.
Even so, I'd be surprised if somebody with more knowledge of the matter than I have said "That's right. You should expect three compensatory picks in the 3rd-5th rounds."
Somebody with no more knowledge than I have, on the other hand ...

Well, we should be hearing from Adamjt13 (who knows more about this than anyone allowed to talk about it) in the next couple of weeks.
Samuel = 3 is all but certain; less sure about Stallworth and Gay, but if the Pats get anything for them, Stallworth should be a 4, and Gay either one of the last 5s or one of the first 6s.

And that we MIGHT have some guys who may count against us...I think we could never quite figure it out in the other thread we had a few months back. Its all guess work for the most part, except Adamjt13 has it down to a science.

3rd for Asante, not sure about the others - With the Cassel's trade (if and when it happens), I think we have to looking at a record draft for amount of picks our team has this year.

On March 11, 2007, Stallworth agreed to terms with the New England Patriots in a reported six-year deal worth $30 million with $3.5 million guaranteed. The contract was incentive laden, meaning that the Patriots could release him if he underperformed for a small fraction of the full contract. On February 22, 2008 the Patriots declined the option on his contract and he became a free agent.
I believe the Pats didn't pick up an option making him a FA.
Right, I put that badly. Technically, his contract was voided. But somewhere along the line I got the impression that by declining an option, the Pats were not eligible for compensation. I may be completely, wrong, in which case

I think that somewhere in one of the older threads on this issue it was established that declining the option made him a UFA - and that there is precedence here that he should count towards a comp pick.
