That is very true. Unfortunately, we have also failed at several other positions:

Offensive line- Monroe and Joeckel

Wide receiver- Soward, Williams, Jones and Blackmon.

Defensive line- Harvey, Fowler and possibly Bryan


My point is that this team has been horrible historically with their 1st round picks. In 24 drafts, the only great picks were Boselli, Taylor and Ramsay. The current regime is batting 200 (1 for 5).
Bottom line is they need to do a much better job and definitely not reach for a player based on need. If Haskins is gone, there's a good chance Will Grier will still be there in round 2. If their scouts believe he has a good chance to succeed after sitting for as long as necessary, they should take him. If they're not crazy about any of the quarterbacks in this draft, they need to make sure they get one of the better free agents and use a mid-round draft pick on someone they feel can be developed like Stidham, Thorsen or Finley. If this plan fails, the current regime will be gone next year and hopefully they get one of the top guys in 2020.
