anybody see this at si?NOW WE HAVE 9 PICKS.

Updated: Redskins get three extra picks [David Elfin]

The NFL just released this year's compensatory draft picks and the Redskins, for a change, came up big. Washington was granted extra choices at the end of the third round (96th overall) and two after the seventh (244th and 249th). The third-rounder was compensation for losing guard Derrick Dockery to Buffalo. The seventh-rounders were for losing running back T.J. Duckett to Detroit and cornerback Kenny Wright to Cleveland.

The extra third-rounder gives the Redskins four picks in the first rounds for the first time since 2002. Washington had just nine such selections during the five drafts since.
