Good point. As well as the point above about the importance to have a winning culture. Tomlin has never had a losing season with Pittsburgh, so you know they are not drafting early, but here they are this year with the second best record in the AFC. The Chiefs have been drafting late every year and competing for Super Bowls each year. 

In my 55+ years as a Bengals fan, the Bengals have often had what one might consider good draft position, and yet only have had 4 seasons in which they won playoff games. So, there must be something other than good draft position to build a winning team and winning culture.
