Wait  how do you know which kids are gonna turn out to be NFL players?  You are pulling a few needles from a haystack. I will bet that most of the guys in the NFL from the region werent all that highly regarded. Development is the key component.  Chandler was a 2 star. Unfortunately we have recruited many 2 and 3 stars. There are teams like Pitt Penn st Maryland Rutgers Temple are grabbing northeast kids  They are not going to all go to SU no matter how hard we recruit them. Whether they are 4/5 star studs or 2/3 star developmental plays, some pan out, some don't, some exceeds expectations.  Too many factors that go into players making the NFL.   This issue is we can't load half of our roster up with 2/3 star players from the region and hope we struck gold.  Then you end up with a uncompetitive team with those players. Then the top Northeast players will really stay away and give us no consideration. Bottom line, get the best players you can get in any region. It gives you the best chance to strike gold.
