Overrated: Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is a good player, but you'd think by winning the Super Bowl he's a great one. He still has a ways to go to get to that level. He needs to do a better job of reading the entire field.
Cowboys: I agree that Bledsoe is underrated. People talk about him like he can barely play, but his only problem is mobility. His arm is still very good. Roy Williams overrated? Maybe the most overrated on the team, but defeinitely not the most overrated in the league.
Texans: Hooray for David Carr! I also would have accepted Dom Davis on this list, what with people's anger in not taking Reggie Bush. Eric Moulds isn't the most overrated on the team. It's Antwaan Peek. Team officials talk about him like he's some defensive savior in blooming, but I have seen absolutely nothing from him that makes me think he's any good.
Ben Watson ready to join the "elite class" of tight ends? Give me a break, he isn't even close to being a Tony Gonzalez or an Antonio Gates.

Give him a chance.. Last year was his first year as a starter(was injured his rookie year).. He got all the tools to be a stud and with the Patriots running thin on receivers and Brady feeling more comfortable throwing to Watson during mini-camp*hint**hint* he might have a breakout seasons. Plus most Tight-end breakout during their second or third year anyways *cough**cough* Antonio Gates

Rudi is not overrated. He is just as good as they say he is (This coming from someone who loathes the Bengals).
"Overrated: Rudi Johnson is a decent back, but he doesn’t have the big-play speed. It's clear that backup Chris Perry brings more to the offense when he's in the game. Look for him to get more time this season."I remember the days of Rudi Johnson...Rudi is not overrated. He is just as good as they say he is (This coming from someone who loathes the Bengals).

[QUOTE="bb1924"][QUOTE="Wario_and_Fox"]Where's Reggie Bush on the Saints?geaux321How is anyone going to tell if he is over or underrated when he hasn't played a single down yet? Because Wario is just a hater and can't accept the fact. What fact? That Reggie Bush is the Michael Jordon of football? That he'll be unstoppable and get a TD every time he touches the ball. He's overrated, and he should be on that list. No rookie should have that much hype.

Please let me know if someone has said something like that.

Yeah it only takes 3 guys to take him down and he almost caught up to the cornerback who intercepted Brady on two different occasions.
Oh and and he does that funny thing where he never misses the ball!
EDIT: The problem with Watson is that he doesn't get the ball thrown to him that much. When he does however get the ball the play is ususally massive (40+ yards). He breaks a tackle like no TE I have seen since Gonzalez.

Yeah, him catching up to Champ Bailey might have been the most athletic performance for a TE ever in the NFL. I said WOWOverrated: Receiver David Givens is good, but he certainly isn't an elite receiver, yet the Titans are paying him like one.
Ouch.

Watch the game again.
Ben Watson almost catches up to Champ Bailey.
It's insane when you think about it.
Eh im not really impressed, happens all the time....in the Rose Bowl Texas linebacker Drew Kelson, was catching up to Reggie Bush all the time.Espurs117A TE from the top of of the field is not suppossed to catch up to a CB who got an interception at the bottom of the field.

Praise the Lord! There's someone else who thinks that Dom is a good player! I LOVE the guy! He has been on my fantasy football team the last couple of years, and although he has been hurt, he has gotten me plenty of points. More than some guys do that aren't hurt the whole time! I wasn't too surprised when Bush was passed up for the simple reason that Davis is a very good all around back. He can catch out of the backfield, has homerun ability, and can block rather well (although you wouldn't know that since the line lets three or more guys in at a time). He's the total package and if the blockers can step up, he will most likely be around the whole season. I also believe Carr is much better than he looks. He was SO good at Fresno State and just hasn't had a good offense. They added Moulds and a couple O-lineman so hopefully he will show us what he is made of!
I agree with most of the list but like many, I think they made some dumb picks, Roy Williams anyone? Pretty good list for the most part though.
