Guy literally lost his job to Trub this past few weeks.  

Best case scenario is to get the 1st overall pick this year, we aren't going anywhere this year with the roster anyways, no point of winning meaningless games since there is no chance for the playoffs regardless.

Not saying Minshew is comparable, but in what round was Brady drafted?

Right. At the end of the day, draft position means nothing. What matters is how you perform when you get your shot.

Kurt Warner: Undrafted
Romo: Undrafted
Brady: 6th Round
Warren Moon: Undrafted

Antonio Gates: Undrafted
Jeff Saturday: Undrafted
James Harrison: Undrafted
Arian Foster: Undrafted
Kyle Williams: 5th Round
Robert Mathis: 5th Round
Terrell Davis: 6th Round
Shannon Sharpe: 7th Round

That's just a short list of late round/undrafted wildly successful NFL players. Sure the odds of a top pick having a great career are higher, but it doesn't matter where they're taken.
