One bad year is possible as an aberation.

Two bad years is a tear it down situation, at which point, giving u the pick in the 2nd year is preferential to the first. Especially this year, where 2022 is looking to be a stacked draft.

Not lottery protecting a pick is just silly - no upside to not doing it
