He's got one year to prove himself or Payton will move on.” This source pointed out that Payton has said multiple times in public, on the record, how Russell keeps “bothering Drew Brees.” Payton tries to play it off for a laugh, but my source doesn't think Payton actually think it's funny.

Not franchise crippling?
If we're talking about a last place franchise that's averaged less than 6 wins/yr for the better part of a decade, gave away all their top draft picks for two years, and shares a division with the best franchise in the NFL (which happens to have plenty of offseason resources)....I'd say it would be somewhat crippling.
