The Washington Redskins have selected a quarterback in the first round in two of the last 15 NFL drafts.
When it happened with Robert Griffin III in 2012, an offensive player drafted much later—fourth-round quarterback Kirk Cousins—went on to become much more successful than Griffin.
History could now be repeating itself with 2019 first-round quarterback Dwayne Haskins Jr., who struggled as a rookie while an offensive player drafted much later—wide receiver Terry McLaurin—excelled to the tune of 919 receiving yards and seven touchdowns last year after Washington selected him 76th overall.
