Ehh, I agree with you on this mostly, but there is some foresight involved, too.  I can't be the only person who was immediately laughing at the Browns for taking Johnny Manziel rather than waiting 5 years to see how the pick worked out.

The biggest issue is that no matter what you do (other than taking Luck/Manning at #1 overall, etc) there are almost certainly going to be better players you missed on.  When people ask me for real life advice on decisions I tell them the most important thing to remember is that no matter what you do and which path you choose you will be able to convince yourself it was the wrong one.

But anywho, we've already figured out that the Bengals burning their #11 pick on a QB before we see Dalton in ZT's system is a bad move.  That hain't hindsight, and I'm not going to expect people to wait 5 years to complain if we ignore LB or OT so we can take Drew Lock, or something.
