you install a scheme so that you can get away with lower drafted players at specific positions. If every team used the same principles on offense and defense the draft would be much more clear-cut and predictable.
Back when zone blocking first came on the scene, the faster smaller linemen were not as sought-after and those guys were easier to acquire in later rounds.
Essentially you scheme in a way that allows for specialization. Can't have jack of all trades or what you all like to call "good" or "better" players at every position.
