The Old NFL Top 10 episode of the worst free agent signings had anyone going to Washington as the top selection. That episode (which was filmed in 2010) had one of the most poorly aging statements in any episode of the series: “I honestly think Dan Snyder’s heart is in a good place”. - Peter Schrager
I am a DC area native. I knew that the team with the highest number of bad contracts would be The Redskins under Dan Snyder. I also knew that Albert Haynesworth would be #1 on the list.
Me too, Adam Archuleta, Deion, Jeff George, Trung Candidate, McNabb, Josh Norman had 1 good year with us and was average at 16 17 mil a year, Bruce Smith, he was alright but at the tail end of his career, we had some good ones but ones that sucked more, Kendall Reyes, and one orher signed and JayGruden said we got 2 interior guys instead of Calais Campbell who was a beast still 7 or 8 years ago, so basically we got 2 suck players at cheap Bruce Allen prices instead of paying 1 really productive player Bruce would say you want to play here because of the history of the Redskins so take our discount, even low balled Kirk so he left, cut Swearinger for calling out the lazy practices, cut Ricky Jean dude because he was a Scot McCloughan guy and called out bs on something in the organization, he was ok not great but effective,I can go on for hours but I won't 😢😂😂
I was born and raised in MD (Upper Marlboro & Capitol Heights) until I moved to AL Mar-Apr of 2011. I remember the day after the Monday Night Massacre on 106.7 The Fan. Lavar Arrington and his co-host were going off on the effort Washington put up against my Eagles and pointing out Haynesworth literally sitting on his ass. It was hilarious
i still laugh at the story about him taking 3 weeks to even attempt a conditioning test then couldn't even come close to finishing it possibly the biggest laziest waste of talent we've ever seen in any sport......... the dude went from dominant freak to useless turd in the blink of an eye
Fun fact: Javon Walker was the last first round wide receiver, the Packers ever selected in 2002 since then, they never drafted a first round wide receiver
Nick Foles & Carson Wentz will always be special in Philly because of Super Bowl season. But they were Injury Prone, Inconsistent, & never had that magic outside of Philadelphia.

This is a little off topic, but... George Paton: Hired a bottom five head coach in NFL history. Agreed to a bottom five trade in NFL history. Handed out a bottom five contract in NFL history. Still has a job. God I'd love to have that level of job security.
My dad and I were in a fantasy draft together in 2019, and he asked me to draft bc he would miss due to work. For his first round pick, I chose Le’Veon Bell over Ezekiel Elliott. Elliott had 1300 yards and 12 TDs while Bell had the year he had with the Jets. My dad hasn’t allowed me to draft for him since.
5:09 To defend Javon Walker, Walker was not the same person or player again after his teammate Darrent Williams was murdered and died in his arms back in 2007. That's hard for anyone to bounce back from
Dan Snyder, Dan Snyder, Dan Snyder, and Brock Osweiler. David Boston still hurts. My poor San Diego Chargers. _"Always a flower girl, never a bride."_ Sam Bradford was the last #1 pick before rookie contracts were restructured. He fleeced the NFL like no other. His knees were just slightly stronger than Fred Taylor's hamstrings.
"Always a flower girl, never a bride" is the greatest description for the Chargers I've ever heard. Personally, I ragequit from them in 2016 when they became the only team to lose to the Browns in two years. I haven't looked back. I applaud you for staying loyal.
Yea back in the mid 2000s #1 picks were negotiating their rookie signing deals. I remember Jamarcus Russell held out for $50M and was the biggest bust in raiders history and maybe NFL history as a #1 pick next to Ryan Leaf but he was a #2 pick after Peyton. I just can’t believe Sam Bradford was still playing in 2018? I thought he had retired in 2015 but teams were throwing money at him.🤷♂️
@thenumberquelve158 Oh, I quit following the Chargers when they moved. I will NEVER cheer for an LA-based team. Now, I am a sports atheist. I just hope the games I watch are entertaining, and both teams have fun.
@itsascaryworld9788 Leaf still beats Russell for biggest bust ever. The Raiders always fucked the draft up, but everyone thought Leaf was IT. It was to be him v Peyton for 10 years.
I disagree. Foles was horrible when he got back from injury and never won a game as a starter. Meanwhile rookie Gardner Minshew went 6.6 and played a lot better with the same team. Minshew has never looked that good since.
I'd probably give Javon Walker a break here. Let's not forget he was never the same after Darrent Williams was murdered. Williams literally died in Walker's lap. That's some horrible trauma to endure.
As Packers fan he tore his knee up and did well with broncos but it was as bad if not worse than DeAngelo hall move but that was a trade remember that ?
For me, the lasting image of Haynesworth in DC will be a clip someone made of the play from that Eagles game where Haynesworth was blocked, put on the ground, and just laid there while the footage played in slow motion to Bob Dylan's "Lay, Lady, Lay."
i love that there's some new Top 10 content........ i know it's not official NFL Network / NFL Films but it's still great and well done, for years i'd have NFL Network Top 10 shows on as background noise, could watch stuff like this all day! Love the new lists, appreciate the work of you guys putting these together!
He wasn’t a free agent signing; he was still under contract to the Seahawks and was traded to the Broncos. (I see what you are getting at, though. The Wilson deal will likely be on a Top 10 of bad trades.)
I will never forget the NFL Network Top 10 special on this subject when they announced, "And the number 1 worst free-agent signing of all time... ANYONE to the Washington Redskins!" I fell out of my chair!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Tampa Bay signed Alvin Harper a 4 year $10m deal, which was the biggest Free Agent contract of 1995. He rewarded the Bucs with 65 receptions for 922 yards and 3 TDs before they released him.
For me, I do take injury into consideration. Being a former player and injuring myself, it's nearly impossible to get out of your head and to ever be the same player before you were injured.
You’re close, it was Drew Brees, mainly known for having the second most passing yards in NFL history (he had the most actually until T*m Br*dy chained together a couple particularly diabolical seasons).
What stuck out to me here is just how many 7-year deals were being handed out when nowadays you really only see 5-year deals at best for true franchise guys
Thanks for the video. I remember every single one of these players and forgot about some. Neil odonell beat Jim harbaugh in the ‘95 afc champ game and made the SB with Pitt but lost to a great Dallas team. If we’re not talking money, he ended up the best of all of these guys in the video.
Oh man. Kenny Golladay was so good here in Detroit and then he just completely gave up. He started caring more about posting his cute designer outfits on Instagram than football. Glad we dodged that bullet not resigning him. I was so upset when we didn’t too lol.
Should add this player on honorable mentioned: Randy Gregory. Signed 5 years $70 million dollars contract with Denver Broncos than deal with injuries, in his career like always not impact player and troublemaker in 2 seasons with team, then got traded to 49ers half to 2023 season and lost in Super Bowl
Same ocfseasin as Russell Wilson as Packers fan I remember Jimmy Graham and martelus Bennett back to back busts and killed our salary cap in Arron Rodgers prime
Some of these free agent signings don't always have to do with players underperforming it sometimes is due to stars going to bad teams, nmadi was a great zone corner but when he signed with the eagles they had him play more man and press than he ever played in oakland.
Almost all of Jon Grudens 2019 free agent class that included the highest paid O Lineman of all time Trent Brown, Antonio Brown, Vontaze Burfict and Lamarcus Joyner.

That year the Bears gave Glennon that contract AND traded up to get Trubisky ahead of Mahomes and Watson has to be the one of the biggest blunders ever.
I love the intro because it showed a couple of the best free agent signings in NFL history. *Peyton Manning signs with the Denver Broncos in 2012 (helps them win Super Bowl 50). *Reggie White signs with the Green Bay Packers in 1993 (helps them win Super Bowl XXX). *Drew Brees signs with the New Orleans Saints in 2006 (helps them win Super Bowl XLIV). *Tom Brady signs with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020 (helps them win Super Bowl LV). *Jerry Rice signs with the Oakland Raiders in 2001 (helps them reach Super Bowl XXXVIII). *Kurt Warner signs with the Arizona Cardinals in 2005 (helps them reach Super Bowl XLIII).
As a Chargers fan who started watching football in the early 2010's, I'd never even heard of David Boston until now. Guess the placement checks out then.
My heart didn't break, it SHATTERED when Foles got hurt in Jacksonville. Lifelong Eagles fan, and he's one of maybe three players that I wished well when they departed. I just wanted him to live his best life!!
He was a fun player in Seattle but you knew when he left he was gonna get paid to take on a bigger role. I don't think the financials for a 5 year/40 million is the worst deal if he had continued growing as a player. I think it was a rare worthwhile risk by Washington under Snyder considering just how bloated WR salaries randomly got.
Very talented but could never stay on the field. He only had one year where he wasn't on the DL. And he signed elsewhere and gave you nothing but time on the DL.
Most defensive players who leave never amount to much. Bill was always able to put people in the right spot to make big plays for them, but without that it's rare they shine.
Wonder how many of the WR's on this list are there due, at least in part, to poor QB play. Last clip of Walker shows JaMarcus Russell throwing him the ball (6:27).
To be fair to Nandi, he played on the left side of the field only in Oakland and Philly thought he was a shutdown corner that could travel with the best receiver (ala Darelle Revis). It was a bad system fit, but no one is crying for Nandi, he married Kerry Washington.
Considering that O'Donnell intentionally threw 2 oblivious interceptions in the super bowl as part of the "fix", he deserved ever bad thing that happened to him thereafter. No, not a Steelers fan. Just a football fan who hated seeing oblivious proof the game was fixed.
I'd like a vid on 5th year options. Players like daniel jones where the player was signed after the 5th yr option, and was a bad investment and players like Patrick Queen and Josh Jacobs, where a 5th yr option wasn't picked up and were also bad investments.
He was better than overrated deanegelo hall who robbed the raiders the same ocfseasin as javon walker signing and making tommy Kelly the Leagues highest paid defensive lineman lmao remember?
From what I heard about the Albert Haynesworth situation is that he went from playing on a 4-3 Defense with Tennessee to playing on a 3-4 Defense with Washington, which he HATED. That's why he struggled there and getting into it with the head coach.
Could just make a list of pretty much any Dan Snyder free agenr signing

Very talented but could never stay on the field. He only had one year where he wasn't on the DL. And he signed elsewhere and gave you nothing but time on the DL.
Most defensive players who leave never amount to much. Bill was always able to put people in the right spot to make big plays for them, but without that it's rare they shine.
receivers and running backs especially when they leave good teams with a great QB and online to get the big money, most of them end up flopping
@@irishspagetti6565very true, I knew leveon would fall off that Steelers o line and talent was the reason his patient running style worked
Wonder how many of the WR's on this list are there due, at least in part, to poor QB play. Last clip of Walker shows JaMarcus Russell throwing him the ball (6:27).
yeah these clips are bad examples cuz not every incompletion is the WRs fault but the overall stats for the season(s) dont lie
@@Packerfan130 Yeah, but ... JaMarcus Russell! Jerry Rice would have had a bad stat year with him at QB.
I remember the Bengals offered Golliday. Glad he didn't sign with them now 😅
The Peerless Price Sweepstakes wound up being a flop. They actually called it that when he was a free agent
Whos here after finding out Russel Wilson is going to Pittsburgh.
They got him for a song....then traded for Fields.... gotta wonder
To be fair to Nandi, he played on the left side of the field only in Oakland and Philly thought he was a shutdown corner that could travel with the best receiver (ala Darelle Revis). It was a bad system fit, but no one is crying for Nandi, he married Kerry Washington.
Great episode
Considering that O'Donnell intentionally threw 2 oblivious interceptions in the super bowl as part of the "fix", he deserved ever bad thing that happened to him thereafter. No, not a Steelers fan. Just a football fan who hated seeing oblivious proof the game was fixed.
Chappell show wouldn’t be anything without d Rollins ? That’s like saying Deion branch wouldnt Tom Brady be anything without him 😂
We’re brushing the dust off this classic !!
Nick Foles to Jacksonville
Brock Osweiler would have been great if he stayed with the Broncos. He worked so good in that system.
He went back to denver
@ not to the same system at all!
The beat at 5:13 goes hard
4:37 I was calling him Nnamdi Awesometoast after getting burned by Julio on that play. Man the 2012 Falcons were a joy to watch until the postseason.
Watson to the Browns was so awful.
He was a trade and his contract extension was the worst thing to happen to the Browns since 0-16, most Guaranteed Money it was fully guaranteed also.
I'd like a vid on 5th year options. Players like daniel jones where the player was signed after the 5th yr option, and was a bad investment and players like Patrick Queen and Josh Jacobs, where a 5th yr option wasn't picked up and were also bad investments.
washington with deion and Haynesworth!!😂
Im sorry but Laveon bell was plagued with a terrible o line.
He was. But even after he left he never did anything
Whoever decided to make Josh Norman the highest paid NFL corner deserves to not have a job
He was better than overrated deanegelo hall who robbed the raiders the same ocfseasin as javon walker signing and making tommy Kelly the Leagues highest paid defensive lineman lmao remember?
@@eric3298 usually making a player, the highest paid at their position usually doesn't plan out
Stumbled upon this, and. liked it immediately. Great narration and content, binged for 3 hours and there's still more!! Thank you!!!
Welp, guess we'll just ignore Russell Wilson signing with Denver.
Nnamdi was a Man-To-Man CornerBack and the Eagles at the time used a Lotta Zone In their Defense and he didn’t fit the Eagles Scheme defensively
If Albert Haynesworthless wasn’t in this list, it needed to be redone.
Fat Albert Haynesworth lmao savages back then
I remember how mad I was that my eagles ended up with Malcolm Jenkins instead of Jarius Byrd
As a Washington fan I'm hurt
From what I heard about the Albert Haynesworth situation is that he went from playing on a 4-3 Defense with Tennessee to playing on a 3-4 Defense with Washington, which he HATED. That's why he struggled there and getting into it with the head coach.
I remember that sky scraping good troop Denver signed😂😂😂
