    Tanking to get a top 5 pick for a QB hasn't worked for a decade. The last team to win a Super Bowl with a top 5 pick that they drafted at QB was the Giants with Eli Manning when they won in 2011. Since then it's been:

    Ravens - Joe Flacco - 18th pick
    Seahawks - Russell Wilson - 3rd round pick
    Patriots - Tom Brady - 6th round pick
    Broncos - Peyton Manning - Signed as free agent
    Patriots - Tom Brady - 6th round pick
    Eagles - Nick Foles - 3rd round pick
    Patriots - Tom Brady - 6th round pick
    Chiefs - Patrick Mahomes - trade up for 10th overall pick
    Buccaneers - Tom Brady - signed as free agent
    Rams -Matt Stafford - Traded for him
    Chiefs - Patrick Mahomes - trade up for 10th overall pick
    Ring the bells that still can ring
    Forget your perfect offering
    There is a crack, a crack in everything

    To be fair the main guy who would have won one retired in his prime.

    To be fair that is highly debatable. He had a 73.4 passer rating in 8 playoff games with 12 TD passes and 13 INT's.
