If a single player isn't so important, why is it so desperately necessary to the league that that player goes to the Dolphins? What is the downside of that player ending up on Carolina, or Tennessee?

Edit:. I think it's be super exciting if a team like that, who may be a QB away, has the top one stumble into their laps when they weren't tanking. Though my preferred solution would be that proposed wheel setup, where picks are distributed evenly years ahead of time, and every team already knows their draft position going into a season, and draft order is not tied in any way to wins and losses. I know that's too radical to ever happen though.
