Why would anyone want to build the worst team in the league just so they can get a number one overall pick?  It's a stupid plan.  Teams don't get better by getting worse.  It doesn't work.

Every draft position is going to be littered with failures and mediocrity. Here is a graph that lists the number of all pro selections by draft position.

1st overall comes in at 4th.

So we should make sure that we draft Lawrence at 3, then, obviously.  #stats
