OK so players that were cut or are not UFAs will not count against the pick formula...I think I just read that. This is what I read about Eric: https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/eric-decosta-s-rise-to-general-manager-is-a-story-for-the-dreamers "Eric DeCosta’s introduction as the Ravens’ new general manager is a story for all the dreamers and interns out there. The dream took root when he was just 6 years old at the bus stop in Taunton, Mass. In 1996, the English major from Colby College was one of Ozzie Newsome’s first entry-level hires in Baltimore, and one of DeCosta’s jobs was taking then Head Coach Ted Marchibroda’s car for oil changes. Marcibroda would give him $100 and tell him to keep the change, so DeCosta found a $9.99 special up the road."
