I don't think anyone suggests that having a full complement of draft picks will magically turn the Redskins around. In fact, their history with draft picks has been notoriously bad except for a few here and there.
The issue is, that of the two strategies, we know which one clearly doesn't work -- but this organization simply refuses to see it, but they do the same thing year after year, expecting a different result.
There has to be a monumental shift in the personnel decision making with this team. One can only hope that a business man as savvy as Dan Snyder is will someday recognize it, and he'll turn things over to the professionals. And unfortunately, that doesn't include Joe Gibbs.
