About those free-agent busts

Pro Football Weekly's list of all-time free-agent busts ran five deep: Sean Gilbert, Elvis Grbac, Alvin Harper, Adam Archuleta and David Boston. I can think of one that might trump them all: Nate Odomes. Buffalo fans remember him as a shut-down corner who missed only one game from 1987 to 1993. Seattle fans remember him as the $8.4 million free agent (big money back then) who blew out a knee playing basketball and never played a down for the Seahawks. There have been other free-agent busts, but it can't get worse than shelling out big bucks for a guy who never plays a snap for you.

Technically, I suppose this could be true.. LOL
