Generically speaking, draft picks are relatively less valuable when you have a cheap, rookie-contract, franchise QB and relatively more valuable when a vet franchise QB is eating up your cap.
I'm not excited about trading a 2nd (or more) for a guy who is either a short term rental or an older player demanding a big contract extension, but if you're ever going to trade valuable picks for ready-to-go players or if you're ever going to sign high priced free agents, the next couple of years is the time.
