By picking up Golden Tate and James Ihedigbo in free agency, the Detroit Lions all but assured they would not receive compensatory draft picks this season.

That was confirmed Monday night when the NFL released the comp pick list and the Lions were not on it. The Lions gained Tate and James Ihedigbo last year while only losing Jason Fox (Miami) and Willie Young (Chicago). While Young had a good season and decent contract -- two variables under the league's secret formula -- Tate and Ihedigbo outweighed that.

Detroit is in line for comp picks in 2016, though, after losing Ndamukong Suh and Nick Fairley in free agency and adding no free agents that would count against compensatory selections as of now. The Lions are unlikely to receive comp picks for Jed Collins or Garrett Reynolds.

Reggie Bush, because he was cut, would not count toward any comp pick status much like Louis Delmas and Nate Burleson did not for this season.
