The league has announced the 33 additional compensatory picks dished out to 13 teams for the 2016 NFL draft, and four teams have been awarded third-round picks. The Detroit Lions, New England Patriots, Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos have been given selections at the end of Round 3 for their net losses in free agency a year ago. The Lions will pick 95th overall, followed by the Patriots, Seahawks and Broncos at Nos. 96-98. [ Follow Yahoo Sports draft expert Eric Edholm on Facebook and Twitter ] Currently, the picks start at No. 95 because the Patriots were docked their first-round pick because of deflate-gate, and the Kansas City Chiefs currently are slated to lose their third-rounder, pending an appeal, because of tampering charges by the league .
