"Black sheep" means "odd one out" too.
I have rarely heard it used to describe someone who is a disgrace to their family because that seems at odds with the origin of the phrase. It's more about people who are unusual or don't take after their families. Different traits etc. It's a phrase born from recessive genes in sheep.
