Pittsburgh always seems to find productive receivers, for example. The Chiefs. Baltimore. These teams are able to find productive players at a more consistent rate than others.

The issue is that players are human, and no amount of scouting can account for "intangibles" that affect how the player performs once they the NFL.
Also, I believe we're dealing with a little confirmation bias... because you only hear about the successes, while the failures usually fade off into obscurity (unless it's some monumental failure.)
