Like drafting Cedric and Fisher to have them on the roster in anticipation of losing Whitworth and Andre.

If it works like a charm, then they simply MAINTAIN decent starting left and right tackles when Whitworth and Andre leave.

If it doesn't work out so well we get what we got - a DECLINE at those positions.

Net positive impacts on the quality of the team or Units on the team itself can be stagnant.

Understand this but will never fill needs and become great with this plan without using FA more. 

There is nothing wrong with picking players a few years early to replace those you expect to lose down the road. 

But those type picks should come in later rounds with the high ceiling project like players instead of early picks. 

Because when you do this by the time it comes to step in then their rookie contract is almost up and will have to give them big money per round selected in as opposed to what they have proven on NFL level. 

Should not use the got to save money for their signing excuse if they are in preparation of their departure either.
