Well in all fairness Heath Schuler was the type of shot that a struggling franchise needed to take and unfortunately the mid 90's were devoid of either scouting or QB talent in general when it came to the draft. Especially 1994 through 1997.
These days we have better scouting and kids being groomed 24/7 to play QB which doesn't necessarily mean a surplus of QB's but it at least assures that we won't have a repeat of the 90's when it comes to first round QB prospects which were absolutely terrible compared to the 2000's.
