Probably true.
If a QB really sets himself apart from the pack, he's going top 2 or 3 these days. I still don't know that I see a QB in this class that's capable of that, but if one does, the Chiefs would pretty much have to lose out to be in a position to draft him and that's pretty damn unlikely.
Frankly, I just think tanking puts such a pall over a franchise that it's generally a really really bad idea and intentionally bottoming out to get a shot at Paxton Lynch seems a bit over the top.
This is a scouts draft. I just don't see a no-brainer at the top of it. There's going to be a good QB or 2 out of this draft, but it's just as likely to be in the bottom of the first than the top, IMO. There's just not enough separating the top prospects from each other.
The Chiefs need to go QB, but they won't be bad enough to guarantee themselves the 'pick of the litter' nor is the class so clear-cut that tanking is worth the damage it does to an organization.
