I find it to be a decent draft strategy early, and that may be why you see other teams waiting until 21-25 to draft players falling under a requirement.

I agree, I use the same strategy. But at a certain point you HAVE to start filling your needs. Like, even if the best player available at each round happened to be a pitcher, you still need fielders.
Same logic here. You NEED players from your country. It's clearly inefficient to use your last 5 picks on those 5 local players, because you're choosing from such slim pickings by that point. When I did my draft, I had my local players spread out evenly throughout the 25 rounds, and I ended up with nobody under 2 stars overall, where as every AI team was stuck with multiple 1 star / .5 star players
