I found this on the NFLFANS.com site...
AP reports the Eagles, Rams and Jets received the maximum of four compensatory draft picks each from the NFL on Monday. In all, 32 picks were awarded to 16 teams for next month's draft. Under terms of the collective bargaining agreement, a team losing more or better free agents than it acquires in a year is eligible to receive compensatory draft picks. The Bengals will get the highest compensatory pick, a third-rounder, No. 96 overall. In the fourth round, the Eagles have two extra choices, Nos. 129 and 131 overall. The Rams get the 130th overall spot, and the Jets are at No. 132. Philadelphia also will have consecutive picks in the seventh round, Nos. 242-243. The Rams get a sixth-rounder (No. 201), and two in the seventh (Nos. 237-238). New York was given three straight spots in the seventh round (Nos. 234-236). Other teams awarded compensatory picks were Baltimore and Tennessee, three apiece; Denver, Houston and Oakland, two each; and Cincinnati, Green Bay, Jacksonville, New Orleans, the New York Giants, San Diego, San Francisco and Tampa Bay, one each.
