Are you living in cloud cuckoo land?
What draft assets would we have left after this blockbuster trade?
We already have holes we need to fill, let alone creating yet more that we then need to replace?
I accept that their is a possibility of Jackson being a Colt, but one player can destroy a team dynamic for years as well, if they don't work out.
Losing at least 2 first round picks, absorbing his salary and having to cut two more starters this year, and likely others in future years as his cap hit escalates, is not the way to build a franchise long term. Building a team via the draft and then paying a QB big money after year 5, is ok, as you still have your subsequent high pick draft assets and they are cheap, which doesn't affect the salary cap so much and you can manage your roster more easily.
