He was claiming "the best teams draft for need especially in the top 2-3 rounds", and I showed the best team in the AFC the past few years (Patriots) doesn't do it, and the best team in the NFC the past few years (Seahawks) doesn't do it either.
The best teams likely don't have gaping starting holes in their lineup that allow them to make luxury picks.
The Bengals have several below average starters.
As I've said, Green is 29 and Lafell is 30. Ross was taken with an eye towards replacing those 2 guys in 2-3 years.
