"Moneyball" doesn't and can't exist in the NFL.
What Podesta and Sashi Brown are doing is the wave of the now.
Jon Robinson, the Titans GM, is doing the same exact thing: Stockpiling picks to use as ammo for the draft's most talented players each year, then move those picks forward if your "guy" isn't available at the slot.
Quite frankly, I'm surprised it took this long for "tanking" and trading picks to hit the NFL, but then again, it's run by a bunch of old farts.
