What's the purpose of your post here, Fred?
That doesn't mean you don't take first round picks. Many, if not most, draft picks "flop", regardless of round. Guys get taken in the first round just because they have to have a complete first round. Like, somebody HAS to get picked 30th. And, that guy is technically a "1st rounder" even though he may have a 2nd round grade.
Hell, if the draft really was just luck - as some here have said a few times over the different draft threads - the Browns would be good by now because they have had so many picks over the years they would have had much better odds at getting good players. There is a skill in maximizing value and scouting the right guys for what a team wants to do scheme and personnel wise and then timing those picks to land the players targeted.
I'm sorry, I'm just not understanding where you're going with your above post.
