Payton could have tanked last year and drafted a player that actually is similar to Mahomes and a potential superstar. If he had any sense, he'd have pulled the plug after 70-20. Anyone could see they weren't going anywhere.
Or they could have drafted Rattler, aka Albino Mahomes, and grabbed an elite weapon at #12. I think history's going to show that either move would have given them a better, more exciting NFL QB.

Yeah, I think Warren Sharp misunderstood what Payton's point was. Maybe on purpose, to create yet another bit of clickbait for people to get excited about.
