Should not take 3 years though.  A 2nd round pick (or late 1st) should be ready to step in and start by year 2.

That’s not really true, the general expectation is your 1st will start (short of being a future QB behind a vet) and most 2nd rounders will. The 2nds that don’t and the 3rds should be contributing in some role though (at some point in the year) and be ready for year 2, the 3rds may be a two year project but honestly most teams know by year 2 if it’s going to work or not short an injury. Beyond that you hope to get special team guys and others who can play roles at some point with an occasional future starter.
