Perhaps I misunderstood the issue?

Is the concern that we can't get proper use of 3rd and 4th rounders in the short window between the player becoming a viable starter and hitting free agency?

If so, here is one idea:

Let's increase the maximum contract for those picks to 7 or 8 years. If you think you have a gem on your hands, call your shot in advance and give him a longer contract so you can have him available cheaply and longer once he matures. On the other hand, if you just stumble into a lucky pick, you probably wouldn't have assigned a longer contract to begin with, so you wouldn't get rewards for being lucky.
