I just don't see the logic in it plus tanking just makes the process longer than it has to be
I agree with a lot of what you are saying. Some people act like all you have to do to get a great QB is draft one early in the first round. For some reason they remember every good first round pick and completely ignore all the bad ones.
But trading away older stars not only gets draft picks, it also creates more cap space to sign younger players. They may cost almost as much as the vets they replace, but if they are younger you can build for the future instead of having to win now because the old guys are about to decline.
