List of Washington Redskins first - round draft picks < onlyinclude > This is a list of first - round draft picks made by the Washington Redskins of the National Football League . The Redskins joined the NFL in 1932 as the Boston Braves . In 1933 , the name was changed to the Boston Redskins , and finally , in 1937 the Redskins moved to Washington , D . C . The Redskins ' first selection as an NFL team was Riley Smith , a blocking back from Alabama . The team ' s most - recent first - round selection was Robert Griffin III , a quarterback from Baylor . Every year during April , each NFL franchise seeks to add new players to its roster through a collegiate draft known as the " NFL Annual Player Selection Meeting , " which is more commonly known as the NFL Draft . Teams are ranked in inverse order based on the previous season ' s record , with the worst record picking first , and the second worst picking second and so on . The two exceptions to this order are made for teams that appeared in the previous Super Bowl ; the Super Bowl champion " always " picks 32nd , and the Super Bowl loser " always " picks 31st . Teams have the option of trading away their picks to other teams for different picks , players , cash , or a combination thereof . Thus , it is not uncommon for a team ' s actual draft pick to differ from their assigned draft pick , or for a team to have extra or no draft picks in any round due to these trades . The Redskins have selected number one overall twice : Harry Gilmer and Ernie Davis . The team has also selected number two overall three times and number three overall five times . The Redskins have selected players from the University of Alabama four times , the University of Miami three times , and Penn State University three times . Four eventual Hall of Famers were selected by the Redskins in the first round : Sammy Baugh , Darrell Green , Art Monk , and Charley Taylor . Two Washington Redskins first - round draft picks have died during their football careers . The first was Ernie Davis , who was chosen as the first overall pick in 1962 . After being traded to the Cleveland Browns for Bobby Mitchell and Leroy Jackson , Davis was diagnosed with leukemia and died before playing a game with the Browns . The other was Sean Taylor , the Redskins ' first round pick in 2004 , who was fatally shot in November 2007 during his fourth season with the Redskins .

Yukica played at Pennsylvania State University from 1949 to 1952 . Lawsuit . Yukica was terminated by Edward Leland , the athletic director for Dartmouth College , after back - to - back disappointing seasons in 1984 and 1985 . Although Yukica was offered standard compensation for the remaining 18 months of his contract , he instead chose to file suit against Leland in New Hampshire Superior Court for breach of contract . Based on various procedural irregularities regarding Yukica ' s dismissal , Judge Walter Murphy , a former football coach , issued two temporary injunctions against Leland and Dartmouth College . With the case gaining increased press , partly due to testimony at preliminary hearings by coach Joe Paterno of Pennsylvania State University , and college football recruitment already under way , Dartmouth settled out of court and Yukica went on to coach Dartmouth for another season before resigning . Although the case never went to trial , " Yukica v . Leland " has been hailed by the American Football Coaches Association and others as setting an important precedent in sports law . The case also affected how coaching contracts were written , particularly at the college level .
