First round picks aren't as easy as you may say, need I name a few Redskins players drafted in the first round to remind you that it's not a given? We've picked up incrediable talent that people ahead of us missed, Rogers looks to be the best CB thus far in the rookie class this years yet was 3rd CB taken.
While I agree that you have to develop and scout later round picks better, I think we've done a fairly decent job. Rock, Nemo, (I still have faith) McCune, etc.
As far as Coles, let's look at Coles who went to the Pro Bowl in Spurrier's system. Coles was built for that kind of offense and he made HUGE plays. He also got hurt which limited his best skill -- speed. Coles put up monster numbers when he was in an offense that suited him, just like Portis averaged about 5 YPC in denver and it drops to 3.something in Washington. He was in an offense that suits them.
I often wonder what today's "stars" would be if they weren't in the scheme they were in.

As I stated there are some picks in the 1st round that did not work out. But Arrington, Samuels, Jansen, Taylor, come on! And later picks getting better. Are Nemo, McCune playing? Not that I have noticed. If they were good they would be playing, and its not like we have a great short yardage guy, which Nemo was brought in to do. McCune, I actually think he could be a good player, but I may be wrong. He isn't playing on special teams, and he was special teams player of the year for Louisville. ROck is playing special teams, and contributes when called upon. As far as Coles goes, he made the probowl, as an alternate. and Monster year, he never led the Skins in TDs in any of the years he was here. and averaged about 6 yards a catch. Stud? Waste of money and a #1 draft pick. You can not plan on an uncapped year, that is just rediculous. What happens if you spend till you can spend anymore and there is a cap, then what do you do. that is crazy.
