Gotta be one of the best morning headlines evah for draftniks.
I have loved some of the investment picks in projects in the Payton era. That said, I think most are tired of 2nd Rd type picks that don't even see the field their first year or two.

I think reading beyond the headline this is Payton finally admitting and seeing this team needs help, which has been the entire theme of this whole season. The same old isn't going to work anymore and this team needs an overhaul.
SJB in the 2nd round last year was the definition of a luxury pick. A guy we knew needed time, but thought we had that time. We don't have that time anymore and Payton sees that.

If true, I think this stops all talk about drafting Winston, Mariota, Dorial Green-Beckham, Shaq Thompson or Ali Marpet in the early rounds.

He should have always been viewing players drafted in rounds 1-3 as immediate impact players the way most other teams do. This way of thinking is what has cost the organization in prior drafts. Only rounds 4-7 should be viewed as potential project rounds. I think we are seeing signs of the impact of Jeff Ireland heading into this draft.
