Strangely enough, we were all excited after the McNabb extension because it would give us the right to trade him if things didnt work out. Hoewver, if we had just let McNabb walk away after this season under the terms of his previous contract, we likely would have gotten a 3rd or 4th round compesnatory pick in 2012. By signing him to an extension, publically humiliating, and letting the entire league know he was not part of our future plans, we dramatically REDUCED the compensation we would receive when we let him go.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but there are no compensatory picks for players traded for. You only get comp. picks for players you drafted that later left as free agents. Again, I'm not positive, someone set it straight if you know.
