While the Minnesota Vikings spent most of the offseason projected to receive the complement of four Compensatory Picks in the next draft, according to Over the Cap things have changed a bit.Over the Cap now has the Vikings receiving three Compensatory Selections in the 2020 NFL Draft: A third-round selection for the loss of Sheldon Richardson, a sixth-round pick for the loss of Latavius Murray, and a seventh-round pick for the loss of Trevor Siemian.The team had been projected to receive another seventh rounder for the loss of Tom Compton. However, according to the OTC projections, Compton’s average per year (APY) of $1.6 million is now just below the cutoff. The NFL only gives out 32 Compensatory Picks every year, and the last one on OTC’s board is defensive tackle Christian Covington Trae Waynes Jersey , who the Houston Texans signed to a deal with an APY of $1,687,500.Now, obviously, these aren’t set in stone yet. . .witness what happened with the Arizona Cardinals and Sam Bradford last year that cost the Vikings a potential third-round pick. However, if these projections hold true, the Vikings already have Rick Spielman’s “magic number” of ten selections going into the 2020 NFL Draft as they didn’t trade any future selections during this year’s selection meeting.Round 1Round 2Round 3Round 3 (Compensatory Eric Kendricks Jersey , Richardson)Round 4Round 5Round 6Round 6 (Compensatory, Murray)Round 7Round 7 (Compensatory, Siemian)We might even see a bit of a resurgence in free agency. . .at least for teams that actually have cap space available. . .as the signings won’t affect this formula any longer. We’ll be keeping an eye on that as well. Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said on Monday that the team would give wide receiver DeSean Jackson more to do as he works his way back from an abdominal injury and that he believes the wideout is “getting close” to making it back into the lineup.Wednesday brought another update from Pederson and it doesn’t sound like there’s much expectation that Jackson will play against the Vikings this week. Pederson reiterated that the the team is looking for Jackson to expand his workload, but that the team will be seeing “what he can do from a rehab standpoint only.”“With a guy like DeSean, he’s a track guy, he’s a runner, he’s gotta have a level of comfort with that injury Infant Marcus Epps Jersey , all the stopping and starting,” Pederson said, via NJ.com. “It’s really until he gets to that point when we make a decision.”Jackson last played in Week Two, but left after 11 snaps and no catches.
