I’ll ask you the same question to the people that talk about wanting to ‘tank’ for a high draft pick.... have you ever seen an example of a team doing this, then wind up being better in the long run?? I can’t think of a good example of a team unloading 3-4 1st round picks and being BETTER after
If you can give me a few examples of it being beneficial, I’d be on board... but dumping a ton of assets and also tanking for one draft pick just seems like a horrible idea for the long run
You’re not wrong. But when you bring up “horrible idea for the long run” you do understand this FO had us at -$100M in cap space to start the offseason right?

Not sure what you are getting at here but none of these guys are bust. May not all have lived up to their expectations but all were decent to good players. P-Rob was arguably the best slot corner in the league when he played for Philly. Not sure what happened when he came back to NO

My argument was that basically would you be willing to potentially trade 3-4 of these guys for Aaron Rodgers

Or it could be giving up:
Ryan ramczyk
Marshon lattimore
Sheldon rankins
Andrus peat
1st round picks may not 'live up to the billing', but at the very least they're viable starters.
