Underrated/Overrated

Which NFL players are the most overrated or underrated?

Overrated: Matt Ryan is my first choice. People claim he is on the verge of being elite, but wouldn't most quarterbacks be almost elite with two #1 WR's and a #2 playing slot?

Underrated: Matt Forte is on the top of my list because of his constant production. Yet he doesn't get any media attention that he deserves.

Overrated: Andrew Luck. According to everybody, he is the Golden Boy that can do no wrong, but he has yet to anything that Cam hasn't done. Cam actually had better numbers in his first 2 years than Luck had, yet they say Cam is a tier 3 QB while Luck is a top 5.

 

Underrated: Earl Thomas. All the spotlight goes to Sherman, but it is really Thomas who strikes fear and controls that secondary. It seems that everybody always leaves out Thomas when talking about the Hawks.

I was thinking of putting Thomas, but he seems to get his due respect. All of the people watching know he's the best in the Seahawks secondary except for parts of the media. They just want to ride the Sherman Rant hype all the way to the bank.

Russell Wilson. Does nothing special and rides his stacked team.

I just can't agree with this after his game against us. Against Matty Ice we would have had 10 sacks that game, but Wilson managed to get free and find open guys.

he makes the same kind of plays Cam does. he's actually incredible to watch.

 

 

as for overrated/underated:

 

overrated: luck (this is only because of media hype, dude can ball out but they have anointed him wayyyyyyyy too early)

 

underrated: TD (dude gets almost zero attention) but for non panther big ben.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
