There's a lot in common between the NFL bargain bin and the one in your local grocery store currently overflowing with marked-down Easter decorations.
Bargain bins often hold a collection of forgotten or discarded items that are flawed in some way. They're outdated, broken or have fallen out of fashion. Time has moved on, just as it does with veteran free agents or others recovering from a major injury.
Amid the heaping mess of those bins, there's always the opportunity to discover a hidden treasure, a player who can grow into a key contributor on a championship team.
