Garrett Grayson fizzling out isn't him being a bust or or a wasted pick and some indictment of Payton. It's the most likely outcome.


It's definitely a wasted pick. 3rd rd pick that never takes a meaningful snap, how could it not be?

I guess it's all relative. You can keep churning through RFAs thinking you will find the next Tom Brady, or when one of the top 3 QBs in the draft slides to you in the middle rounds, you take him.

It's easy to shite on the pick now, but at the time it was a nice risk/reward.

It's a risk reward thing. If he pans out, great. If not, it's a third round pick. Big deal. It's not like we are sacrificing our future and a ton of draft picks like a lot of teams do to get a franchise QB. If it were me and Drew stays healthy, I'd waste another 3rd or 4th this year if Grayson doesn't pan out. You still have time to develop a later round pick before you have to trade everything to get in the top one or 2 picks or suck bad enough to earn a 1st or 2nd overall.
