Former Phillies first round picks
2002 Cole Hamels, lhp (17h)
2001 Gavin Floyd, rhp (4h)
2000 Chase Utley, 2b (15c)
1999 Brett Myers, rhp (12h)
1998 Pat Burrell, 3b (1c)
1997 J.D. Drew, of (2c)
1996 Adam Eaton, rhp (11h)
1995 Reggie Taylor, of (14h)
Dave Coggin, rhp (30h) - for losing Danny Jackson
1994 Carlton Loewer, rhp (23c)
1993 Wayne Gomes, rhp (4c)
1992 Chad McConnell, of (13c)
1991 Tyler Green, rhp (10c)
1990 Mike Lieberthal, c (3h)
1989 Jeff Jackson, of (4h)
1988 Pat Combs, lhp (11c)
1987 none - for signing Lance Parrish
1986 Brad Brink, rhp (7c)
1985 Trey McCall, c (16h)
1984 Pete Smith, rhp (21h)
1983 Ricky Jordan, 1b (22h)
1982 John Russell, c-of (13c)
1981 John Abrego, rhp (20h)
1980 Lebo Powell, c (13h)
Look at this list of losers. The number indicates the order of the draft pick, and C stands for college the h is for highschool. I can remember a few of the guys from the 90's, and I recongnize the name of a few (Ricky Jordan) but there hasn't been a single good pick in the bunch (Burrell is still debateable). And isn't is amazing how highly touted Wayne Gomes was?
