QB: Kolb - I just don't think he has looked very good from the games that I have seen. I think Philly is going to miss McNabb.

RB: Best and Foster - Look, I love both these guys and own them in multiple leagues but Best is going in the 2nd round in some leagues and Foster in the 3rd. If you can get them in the 3rd and 4th rounds, respectively, then great. But don't overpay for hype. We haven't seen them in a regular season game yet.

WR: Djax, Knox, Fitzgerald - For DJax see Kolb. Knox is unproven and Cutler is already starting to whine - not a good sign. I wouldn't want Fitzgerald as my WR1 with his QB situation.

TE: Finley - The hype has got to stop. He is going to have a very good year but drafting him in the 3rd round and sometimes ahead of Gates? I don't think so.

Who is on your all-overrated team?

i dont think finley and best are being overrated by any means. when a player shows rare ability, it is reasonable to foresee rare results.

going to agree with you a lot hereqb - Kolb - agreerb: Mendenhall and Forte - In my 3 recent drafts neither foster/best went that early. Mendenhall is going to early imo with our o-line/qb situation here in the burgh. Forte I just don't likewr: DJAX - Fitz. - Knox - agreete - Finley - agree
 
QB - Kolb, Cutler

RB - Mendenhall, Forte, Felix, LT, T. Jones

WR - Fitzgerald, S. Smith (CAR), Bowe, Aromashodu, Dez

TE - Cooley

 
QB: Rodgers. He's good, but not consistent #1 QB good. He'll be #3 or 4 behind Manning and Brees.

RB: Jahvid Best. Remember, this is the Lions we're talking about. They may be improved but they're still the Lions.

WR: Mike Wallace (TB). He plays in Tampa Bay, nuf said.

TE: Dallas Clark. Too many weapons on that team for him to be consistently ranked this high. A resurgence of Addai and a healthy Antogon take away from his numbers.

QB

Romo - Sorry, but I just don't see him being in the same class as guys like Brady or Schaub yet he gets drafted as such and many times before them. I'm not saying he's a bust. I just think there is a bit too much hype and expectation here.

RB

S. Greene - I think the NYJ Oline regresses a bit and LT eats into his touches far more than people seem to think. I've seen him drafted as high as the mid 2nd round and that's just too much to pay for him IMO.

Mendenhall - Watched him go as the 14th player overall this past weekend. Big mistake IMO. Pitt Oline is not good and the offense as a whole will struggle w/o Ben.

WR

Welker - being drafted as a guy who is expected to produce 120 receptions. With Welker still recovering from the knee and added options in the passing game fro Brady I think that's a mistake.

Harvin - A lot of folks are expecting him to replace Rice on the field and statistically and I can't see that happening in the least.

Fitz - Seems to be a popular one. Many still draft him like an elite fantasy WR and I just don't think that will be the case this year.

TE

Finley - I just watched him go as the #1 TE in a draft this past weekend. This hype train is in full force.

You've seen Welker being drafted in the 2nd round? Because I'm pretty sure any player a bunch of people expect to catch 120 balls doesn't make it past the 2nd.

One of my favorite things about fantasy football is that there is no right answer to this question yet. Your all overrated team looks a lot like my underrated team.

I just got him for $24 in a 300 dollar cap auction this past saturday. I'll take that...
 
QB Rogers going in the first round of some FF drafts, he end up #3 or 4 QB at end of year, good but not that good

RB Best, Detroits not that good on the o-line, and this kid has an injury history

RB Wells, lots of ???? marks in AZ. Hightowner has 100 percent outplayed this Wells in pre-season, fumbles will do Beanne in.

WR Fritz, Anderson at QB :thumbup:

WR Bowe, some see bounce back year, IMO going back year, no QB

TE Finley as stated above

Haha, I guess I am done for this year. Have Kolb, Best, Foster as starters.
 
Agree on Greene. I think people taking him in the first 2 rounds will be VERY disappointed this year. He doesn't catch passes and has the game's all-time best goalline back stealing touches. No thanks.

2009 FPsSchaub - 360

Romo - 353

Brady - 344

Seems that's exactly where he belongs.

 
NYJ DST

No Revvis

lost Iupati or whatever that HUGE dude's name is at DT

Cromartie now hurting

Pace apparently out for a while

I just don't see them being as good as they were last year by a fairly wide margin

 
Romo - The o-line looks horrid and if Dez isn't the real deal this could be a crash and burn year for the 'boys.

Beanie Wells - Whisenhunt still trusts Hightower to pass protect and in the redzone. Zona maybe lucky to win 5 games this year.

LeSean McCoy - I don't get the love at all.

Brandon Marshall - No way he lives up to that draft position. Team is way too conservative.

Hakeem Nicks - This team is not going to throw like they did last year. The defense will be much better. Nicks already dinged and underwhelming in preseason.

Vernon Davis - I like him but I think TE4 is his ceiling this year. Crabtree there for a full year going to take away some chances.

 
best. throw out the o-line and injury worries...the guy still isn't going to blow up statistically this season. is not a 25 touch/game guy, and probably isn't the goal line back. not going to be somebody you can rely on this season, no matter how talented he is.

 
I got Best and Foster in the back to back 3rd and 4th round of a 12 team league and I thought that was ok.

I got Finley in the 6th after Gates, Clark and one or two others but right before Vernon Davis, Witten and maybe one other so again I thought that was ok.

I got Bowe at the end of the 5th so I'm not sure that is overhyped.

I bump Fitz back up some with the Leinart benching. Anderson's accuracy is a bit hit-or-miss, but he isn't afraid to throw it downfield and into coverage. With Fitz's body control, I think he can snag a few of Anderson's wild pitches and at least turn them into receptions with no YAC. In PPR, that catch for no YAC is still going to score more for Fitz than a Leinart check down to Hightower would.I agree on Romo, Greene and Mendy.

I agree with your observations on the rest but I'm not so sure I'm seeing them actually over-valued though. I'd take Finley #3 after Gates and Clark for sure but I can't really say it's crazy to go #1 with him. I think it's pretty even money between each of those three to end up TE1 at season's end. If you can grab Finley after the other two are gone, that's great. But if you hold of on TE, I'm guessing they are all three gone before your pick comes back around and I think they are in a tier by themselves. In truth, I'd be tempted to take Finley over Clark.

That is good value, no doubt. I'm seeing him go in the 2nd round in all my mocks and drafts so far. I wouldn't touch him until the 4th.

Does everyone remember when D.Williams and J.Stewart murdered and then violated the corpse of the Washington Redskins in preseason 2008?I'm usually in the "ignore the preseason" camp, but what I've see from Rodgers this preseason reminds me of that Panthers-v-Redskins game. I'm buying the hype. I don't think I've ever been as confident about a particular QB finishing #1 as I am about Rodgers this year.

Not sure why dez has to shine for romo to be ok. He has his entire offense back minus flozell. Chances are dez does t do much, he is a rookie wr if he shines that's just a bonus. The cowboys are loaded.

:thumbup:Nicks is healthy and besides being ejected at the beginning of the Pittsburgh game, has looked ready to roll in his limited playing time.
 
It's very tempting to put beanie on this list. The cardinals are going to suck but beanie wells is a special talent and I think he is just too damn good for the situation to sink him.

 
Looks like a list of guys being hyped on these forums and possible overrated here, while for the general public they are probably underrated (except Kolb and Fitz).

That might have been the point of the post though.

Great minds think alike
 
QBs Schaub - has only had one healthy season Brady - he'd better hope Welker is healthy and stays that way

RB C Johnson - teams will know better how to defense him and at his size, he can't keep running through tacklers A Foster - people forget that Kubiak plays too many RB games and benched him Week 15 after fumbling on the first series.

WR Bowe - looked crappy last year and have seen nothing to chnage my opinion that he's lazy. Marshall - after my Housh debacle last year, I know longer trust a good WR on a new team

TE Gates - He's getting old and has seen more injuries the past couple years, he could easily break down.

 
QB - Palmer (what happened with the elbow? reguardless, isnt a starter, not even in a 14 team league)

RB - Greene (8 in the box cause Sanchez sucks + LT isnt totally washed up yet, 3rd round RB2)

WR - Crabtree (i say 900 yards & 5 TD's .... WR3)

TE - Cooley (i can name 14 other TE's i'd rather start weekly)

.... just like the crazy love, i think the hate toward Best, Foster, & Finley has gone too far as well. What started out as positive momentum based on preseason performance & reports has morphed into a mix of either complete love or hate with next to no middle ground ..... its almost like watching a Senate debate.

(FWIW: i have Best in 3 leagues, Finley in 2, & Foster in 1)

If this is your all underatted team then you are the sucker...Kolb is going to be up and down, has to many weapons to be a bust, but not top 10 like he's being drafted.Best in the second, foster in the 3rd.... underatted how? those guys are both going a round or two early.djax will be decent because he'll have 1100/6 and 2 returned tds.=, not early second round pick but not a bust... knows same deal about 1000 and 6 good wr3 option, fitz is too good to not put up top wr numbers so i don't agree with that. great wr's have done well with bad QB's (see Calvin johnsons numbers 2 yeras ago) The hype is real on Finley, but he shouldn't be drafted before gates or clark.

I'm not sure what you'r talking about at DT - Jenkins is the big DT, and he's back from an injury this year. Iupati is an OT in SF.I do agree the Jets' defense is overrated, but I do expect them to be as good if not better than last year. I think they are overrated in Fantasy because they won't get as many big plays as other D's get. Just a lot of 3 and outs, with weak incompletions on 3rd and 8.

At first I thought you were disagreeing with me.Then I realized that you were disagreeing with the poster who said that my list looked like his all underrated team.
 
The bad press on Larry Fitzgerald has swung so far into the negative, he's now underrated.

Derek Anderson is no Kurt Warner. But the one thing he does well is throw the deep ball. I'd still take guys like Andre Johnson, Randy Moss, Calvin Johnson, etc. over Fitz in a redraft format. But don't over look Fitz' immense talent. His talent + Anderson's arm will net Fitz some big games.

 
I have to go with No-Show Moreno RB/DEN as the most over valued and over hyped player so far this year.

He was over blown last year and was often injured and on the weekly injury report, thou he did flash occasional skills when he was able to take the field.

This year has been no different and even worse, he has been out with a hammy injury since early training camp,no reps or playing time logged thus far this pre-season and looks really gimpy from all reports even thou they say he is 80% healed and ready to start practicing. In spite of this knowledge and uncertainty he is still being drafted as a RB2 or low end RB1 and continues to move up the FootballGuys Projection board,currently listed as RB14.

I don't get it???? and I ain't buying it.!!!!

If someone can explain to me where I am going wrong in this assestment, please correct me and the record.

GOOD LUCK

Portis went on a tear during his first preseason, and followed it up with 1500 yards and double-digit TDs.Best *might* have a similar rookie season..Foster looks like the best RB in a powerful offense ..I know there is a lot of hype surrounding Foster, but many people , 'experts' included, think he's the real deal. Fantasyindex website has touted him as a potential top 10 RB..if you're looking for overrated players, look no further than K. Huggins and Mike Williams(TB)..they play for perhaps the worst offense in the NFL, with the worst QB's, and a lousy supporting cast..Williams might look all-world in preseason but how long till defenses double-team him and force Freeman/Johnson to look elsewhere? Williams will be lucky to catch 40 balls this season, yet people are talking him up like he's the second coming of Randy Moss, i.e., a breakout stud rookie WR..guys like that come down the pike once in a lifetime..Mike Williams is not close in talent and ability to Randy Moss or CJ or AJ...he's not going to be anything more than an also-ran WR once the season starts..also, unless/until Caddy gets hurt, Huggins won't sniff the field.. even with Ward's release Huggins still needs to beat out Graham for playing time..and chances are TB will be so bad this season , perhaps the worst team in the NFL, that they'll be in the M. Ingram sweepstakes come 2011 draft, making Huggins useless in dynasty leagues..Clinton Portis is overrated, haven't we finally learned the lesson about Shanahan's RB's and giant RBBC's yet? Also, add D. Thomas ( Redskins) , Gronkowski -getting a lot of love on this board, but when was the last time the Patriots utilized the TE position in a 'real' game? Miles Austin - definition of "flash-in-the-pan"..he's consistently going in the second round of fantasy drafts and for a guy who had crazy numbers like he did, it'll be hard for him to duplicate that success, and as a result, he's being drafted WAY too early...5th-6th round maybe, 13th overall pick in a ten team draft, not so much..

I agree with you on Finley, but Best is different. Finley seems to be a lock due to his surrounding cast, in addition to his talent. Best has less around him, and there's still got to be some level of concern around his durability.
 
I love these threads if for nothing else to see how others are thinking. A lot of these picks look like high risk high reward type players rather than just over-rated. Say you take Best in the early third or late 2nd, and he scores like a first. Is he still over-rated? Several guys that are listed repeatedly in this thread are going to do that. Not trying to be one of those guys that argues what over-rated means, I just think you go get the guys you believe in instead of being so married to ADP sometimes.

Completely agree.But don't "go get the guys you believe in" because of the hype alone.
 
Boy there are a lot of guys standing on the pier missing the Finley boat. If he stays healthy he will be Green Bays # 1 receiver. Mark it down
