I think people overestimate top five/ten draft picks. They simply aren't worth what the present cap figures say they are.
The Rams had a couple of their own top ten picks on their team when they won the Super Bowl but that was thanks to finding a QB working behind a cash register. The Ravens also had two I think and of course Manning went #1 overall but for every one of those, there are tons of Andre Wadsworths and Ryan Leafs.
