I think it is abundantly clear that building a top-team without drafting in tbe top-four is very much the exception, and not the rule.

Because basically every team gets a top 4 pick sometime in a ten year stretch. It is also true that if you do not you can also build elite teams. In fact, statistically it seems to be more likely to be elite this year without one, if you have one you have a one in 4 chance of being in the top 10. If you did not have one it is almost a one in two chance.
