FadetoGreen is correct. My understanding is that players are grouped into 4 classes, Class A, Class B, CLass C and no class free agents. If you lose a class A FA, you get the signing teams #1 pick and a sandwich pick, if you lose class b, you get their first rounder and no sandwich pick, if you lose Class C, you get a sandwich pick only and if you lose a no class FA, you get nothing. Teams play games w/ it too and trade FA for FA, thus switching picks and they both get a sandwich pick while neither loses a player.
