By Chris Malumphy

The NFL has awarded 32 compensatory draft choices to teams in the 2018 NFL Draft. Teams that lost more or better eligible free agents than they signed the prior year are eligible for additional selections. Fifteen teams received additional draft picks.

Although the Cincinnati Bengals, Green Bay Packers, Dallas Cowboys and Oakland Raiders were each awarded four additional draft picks, the Arizona Cardinals, with three additional choices, will receive the most value according to the draft value charts. The Houston Texans also received three additional picks while the Minnesota Vikings were awarded two and the Denver Broncos, New York Giants, New England Patriots, Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Ravens, Los Angeles Chargers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Atlanta Falcons each got one additional choice.

Seventeen teams were not awarded a compensatory pick: San Francisco 49ers, Chicago Bears, Buffalo Bills, Cleveland Browns, Indianapolis Colts, Miami Dolphins, Philadelphia Eagles, Jacksonville Jaguars, New York Jets, Detroit Lions, Carolina Panthers, Los Angeles Rams, Washington Redskins, New Orleans Saints, Seattle Seahawks, Pittsburgh Steelers and Tennessee Titans.
