You have to look at this like you're Harbaugh.
You are walking into a situation where you are paying top end QB money now, don't have dick for offensive weapons. The quickest way to turn it around is trading Herbert.
The Chargers with Picks 5, 11, 23, 37, 69, 105, 110 scares me a whole lot more that the Chargers with Herbert.
It would allow the team to get whatever QB they want, inject a ton of talent at WR, and fix their cap in one offseason. It would jump start their rebuild overnight.

You never trade a young franchise QB. They're unicorns. They're the ONE thing you absolutely HAVE to have.
Herbert SHOULD be a top 5 guy, he's just been saddled with bad coaching and FO.
