Giants gets compensatory pick

The Giants will receive a sixth-round compensatory pick (199th overall) in this year's draft.

The NFL awards compensatory picks to teams that lost more free agents than they signed the previous year. Last year, the Giants lost kicker Jay Feely, tight end Visanthe Shiancoe and cornerback Frank Walker. They signed free agent linebacker Kawika Mitchell and quarterback Anthony Wright.

The Jets did not receive any compensatory picks.

The Redskins (96th overall), Bengals (97), Falcons (98) and Ravens (99) all received third-round compensatory picks.
