I've got more too ... Steve McNair, Javon Walker, Jabar Gaffney, Steve Hutchinson, Terrell Owens (his 1st year in Philly).
And your example of Daunte Culpepper works against your own argument. Lumping ARE with him doesn't help your stance. After all, we know that it's rare when a first year free agent steps right in and does well in their first season with a new team.
My point was to illustrate that it DOES happen -- just not to the Redskins.

The point is that ARE wasn't worth the contract for what he did in Pittsburgh, let alone what he did in Washington. He wasn't worth $10M in Pittsburgh, so that he's not worth $10M in Washington is no surprise at all. He's not a free agent bust in the sense that he had production that disappeared after he was acquired.
