    Former Vanderbilt football players Marcus Buggs and Curtis Gatewood signed free-agent contracts Monday after not being selected in this past weekend's NFL Draft.

    Buggs, an outside linebacker, signed with the Buffalo Bills. Gatewood, a defensive end, signed with the Washington Redskins and is expected to work out at outside linebacker.

    Buggs, a Nashville native and Goodpasture High graduate, considered free-agent offers from Buffalo, the Chicago Bears and the Jacksonville Jaguars.

    "If I didn't get drafted, I wasn't going to hang my head," he said. "All I needed was my shot. Buffalo seemed like the best spot."

    Buggs said the Bills called him over the weekend while the draft was still in progress.

    "They said they would consider drafting me, but if they didn't, they wanted me as a free agent," Buggs said.

    The 5-foot-11, 225-pound Buggs recorded 76 tackles in 2007, Vanderbilt's third-best total and the 20th best in the Southeastern Conference..."

    Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.

        40 times are overrated. The shorter distance measurements are more critical, imo.
