Alan Faneca was lost to free agency prior to 2008 season, we have already been compensated for him.

What about Alen Fanica. We lost him via fre agency and should get a fourth rounder for him, right?

Still do not see McDonald & Ratliff qualifying. I stand by my projections right now from what I know about how they are rewarded.

per adamjt13′s set up from 2009:
mcfadden is worth about a 4th rd (5 mil/year contract)
washington is worth about a 5th rd (4.5 mil/year contract)
leftwich is worth about a 6th rd (3.75 mil/year contract)

it’s also worth noting that leftwich may not qualify since he only dressed for 3 games. mcdonald may qualify (although probably will not) since he was cut after week 11 and dressed for 4 games. ratliff may qualify since he was also cut after week 11 and dressed for 8 games. for both mcdonald & ratliff it probably depends on amt of money their contracts with the steelers were worth (if it was the min they won’t count, but if it was for more they have a decent chance). each one would then cancel out a draft pick starting with the later rounds first
