Maybe someone can clear this up - how was the Corban Knight situation different? Is the compensation (54th overall in the case of Hayes) determined by the original draft slot of the player?

Hayes is a former 1st round pick.
The CBA gives teams a compensatory 2nd round pick if they are unable to sign a former 1st round pick.
Knight as a former 5th round pick wouldn't give Florida anything.
