My guess is in about 1-2 years.
This is a move you make if you're convinced you have 2-3 years to win a Super Bowl.

No, it's not.
It's improving the current roster while adding a ****ing second round pick to help bolster the teams future.
I'm not talking about a straight up player for player trade here.

Keep the young guy for cheaper. Use those savings to pick up a different free agent, at a position where we actually need help.

how about what we could get for the draft pick?
A second rounder is a premium pick.
A move such as this improves the present and future of this team.
