Browns proposing allowing trades with picks up to 5 years ahead. This feels a bit like heading towards madness. How long before a team gives up their whole future draft potential to just win now. Little surprise the Rams are in support. I'd definitely be a buyer in that scenario ("sure we'll have those picks, at the rate you're going, that's a whole slew of #1 picks you're giving up"), but I would be very reticent to gamble away so much draft capital, and then be unable to plan a recovery. GM's living by the sword...

Yeah, I don't agree with this idea. A single mistake of trading away that much could cripple a team for years to come, which could make the division less fun.

Don't like the idea at all. Way too far in the future. Really hope this doesn't gain legs. Way too much unknown 5 years from now to make a current trade on many levels.

I love the idea. Didn't know there was a limit. Frankly I like the idea of 20 years in the future.
