re: Saints sign Tackle Jason Smith

Did we just shite the compensatory pick bed for signing Jason Smith?

I think that the replacement player has to play the following season for a certain number of games, in relation to the player that was lost, and there is also some part of the formula that compares the salaries of the players. The bottom line is that the compensatory pick is there to help teams that lose better players than they are able to replace. I don't think the Saints find a decent LT now in FA, so I highly doubt we get nothing from the LT transition.
