A QB (or two) may go Top 5 but it doesn't mean they're a Top 5 Prospect in terms of talent.
QB is one of the main positions that teams reach for.
Look at the QBs who went even in Top 10 in 2018 that have panned out so far:
Mayfield - Just ok. Maybe you could say above average?
Darnold - Has not been good.
Josh Allen - Only became good in Year 3. Was not a good passer his first two seasons. Took a while to click.
Rosen - Has not been good.

If one of the guys this year has tools and a good organization that can develop that player (e.g. Josh Allen with the Bills or Herbert with the Chargers), great.
But I wouldn't trust a team like the Lions to develop a QB who isn't NFL-ready.
And from my understanding of the QBs in this draft class, there isn't a Burrow caliber QB who can come in and succeed as a rookie.

Maybe I'm wrong though, as I don't pay as much attention to QB now that the Bengals have theirs.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.

Sorry for Party Rocking!
