Redskins drafts-A historical problem

I missed this last week and just saw it today but this is an interesting excerpt from an ESPN Insider article about greatest drafts per team (1981 for us).

I won't publish the link or the whole story because it's a pay service but basically we've had a long history of drafting poorly. How long? Try 40+ years of being one of the worst organizations in drafting Pro Bowl or All Pro players. Here it is:

Among teams that have drafted every year since 1967, the Redskins are the worst in those two categories.
