I understand the reasoning, I just disagree with it. It's not an arbitrary system, but it's also not completely transparent either.
The NFL is a collective, so I can go along with the want for parity. But that's what the salary cap is for me IMO. If a team can't manage their rosters under the salary cap to keep their best players, then I don't agree with rewarding them for it. Even if that reward is a watered down draft selection compared to player lost.

It's not just that. How many great Jags players bolt unless they are grossly overpaid? Bills players? Browns? Raiders over the last decade? Etc.?
The consistently winning teams can abuse the system, but this protects other teams where they either have to grossly overpay or lose their investment.
I would not be opposed to some kind of system that limits what you get the following year based on what you got the previous year so the Packers, 9ers, Ravens, and Steelers can't abuse the system.
Like you can't get 3rd and 4th rounders 2 years in a row or something like that.
