"Homegrown" talent always ends up elsewhere. Where did Belichick come from? Mike Tomlin always been in the Steelers organization? Nope. Andy Reid, Pete Carroll, Sean Payton...all those guys grow up in those organizations? Nope. Bill Parcells...? I could go on and on with head coaches, GMs, etc. Funny thing is people move around when opportunities arise. You can't keep them all, no one does (or can).

You can't keep all of them, agreed.
We keep NONE of them.
Those are mostly coaches.
The most stable, consistently-successful franchises have long-term GMs, and long-term coaches. We have neither.
