Ask the Browns. It seems to be working there. Not saying at all that is what I want, and I don't think the Bengals are as far away as many would lead you to believe, but it isn't illogical.
I don't believe the Browns ever traded away a Pro Bowl level player. I know for sure they never traded Joe Thomas.
The Browns mainly acquired more draft picks by trading their original first round picks. Unfortunately the Bengals do not suck enough to get picks in the top 3 of the draft every year that bring lots of picks back in trade.
And finally, since I don't want to go 20 years without even making the playoffs I don't think I'll ask the Brown anything about re-building.
