All Underrated/Under valued Team (1 Viewer)

[eaglezzz]

QB - Rivers - easy schedule even without VJ

RB - Benson - Cincy is a running/Defensive team people - Carson Palmer's ### does not need kissing

RB - S. Jackson - Dude is the St Louis Rams

WR - H. Ward - 100 Receptions is not out of the question with Holmes now gone

WR - Bowe - So much Talent and now with Dexter and Charles there no pressure on Bowe.

WR - B. Marshall - yeah I know he is not dropping too far but this guy could be a top 3 WR not a top 10

TE - Celek - Always available after the top 5 or 6 TE's and will put up better or the same numbers

Defense - San Diego - KC/Den/Oak twice a year I will take my chances

K - Bryant - Atlanta plays in a dome and is looking to get the offense rolling again in 2010

 

[by_the_sea_wannabe]

qb - Eli - He has raised up a level and will not regress to past levels

rb - D. Williams - going in the late 2nd/3rd is ridiculous for this guy.

B. Jacobs - I think his upside is a lot higher than where he is getting drafted

wr - ward - evans - cotchery - not by a lot but they are getting over looked for the new sexy picks

te - gonzo - see above

 

[Donnybrook]

QB - Jake Delhomme - preseaon games might be clouding my judgemant but I think entire Cleaveland offense is under-rated.

RB - Deanglo - I agree with Wannabe

RB - Payton Hillis - (I don't play in PPR leagues but he could be a bigger factor in those leagues)

WR - Gaffney (SP?) - I hate to say it because I have ignored the experts on him

WR - Louis Murphy -

TE - Ben Watson and Dustin Keller

Is there another guy in the NFL named Jake Delhomme? I watched all of his snaps last year and the guy is atrocious. Preseason games are definitely clouding your judgment.

I watched Kurt Warner play for the Giants and thought he was completely done. I also remember, how bad Favre looked when he lead GB to a 4-12 season. Maybe Jake can redeem himself as well.

 

[whodeywhodey]

QB - Brees. Some people aren't drafting him because of the Madden cover. Are you kidding me?

RB - D-Williams. Agree with what has been said.

RB - Bradshaw. A bit more respect on these forums than real life.

WR - TO. Yes, he's old. But he still has it. A WR2 for WR4 price (at least he was a few weeks ago)

WR - JJones. He's going undrafted in some leagues and is just a Driver knee flare-up away from being a top 20 WR in that offense.

WR - Crabtree. What he did as a rookie was amazing, imo. I think he is borderline elite after this year.

TE - Daniels. Assuming his knee really is 100% you are looking at a top 5 TE at a bargain price. My SOD this year at TE.

 

[leave a whisper]

QB - E.Manning (top 10, should be a starter in every league)

RB - Cadillac (going way too late, not top 20, but not garbage either)

WR - Mason (Flacco loves him & Boldin always gets hurt)

TE - Carlson (IMO no way Z.Miller, H.Miller, or Cooley should be going ahead of him)

 

[Stealthycat]

QB Cassel - why? WR Bowe/McCLuster, RB's Charles/Jones and a TE in Moeaki

RB Foster - Slaton is rumored to be in a battle with a Mountain Man for 2nd RB ... that means LOT of Foster love

RB Caddy - sure, injury risk, nut unquestioned #1 and I love Huggins and all but its the Caddy show in TB

WR - Wallace PIT - it won't be Ward getting the Holmes look, it'll be Wallace

WR - Aromashodu - hot guy now not so much .... wait until Cutler gets in game groove

TE - Z Miller, no sleeper but booms to top 3 type TE

DEF - Green Bay are monsters this year

That's a good point. People seem to have forgotten that stint in NY. And I think it's one of those situations where his stats don't look as bad as he was.But it's tougher to forget the near past. Some of those picks Delhomme threw last year just had you thinking "WTF!!"

 

[Go deep]

QB - Eli Manning (Nothing i can add that hasnt been already)

RB - Jamal Charles (I am not a huge fan, as you could see by someof my posts during the offseason. However, after watching him play in the preseason, and with how far he is dropping, i have grabbed him in more than half my redrafts so far. I just got him in the 5th round of a 10 team non-ppr. Easily my the biggest undervalues player in the FF right now)

WR - Deseaon Jackson (Not sure why this guy is sliding to the end of the 3rd round, but i am happy to take him there every time)

WR - NAte Burelson (He is going undrafted in some leagues, he will make a nice WR3 at a bargain.)

TE - Brent Celek/Zach Miller (I agree with the poster who said he is right up there with the top 5, and at a much cheaper price. The same can be said about Zach, the guy put up top 10 numbers with Russell, he will make a run at top 5 this season)

 

[EBF]

QB Chad Henne, MIA - Top 10 upside available for cheap. The ideal QB2 this year.

RB Jahvid Best, DET - Starting to climb redraft lists, but still available at discount prices in many leagues. Will shatter timid projections in PPR formats if he stays healthy.

RB LeSean McCoy, PHI - Young workhorse on an offense that will rely on him. Low cost.

RB Felix Jones, DAL - The talent is there. Is this the year he stays healthy and becomes the guy?

RB Montario Hardesty, CLE - Starter by midseason?

WR Michael Crabtree, SF - The new Fitz? Should be a consistent impact player in PPR leagues.

WR Mike Williams, TB - I expect 1,000 yards this season, making him possibly THE value pick of this year's redrafts.

WR Santonio Holmes, NYJ - Best WR on the Jets could give you top 20 ppg numbers for your playoff run.

TE Zach Miller, OAK - Best receiver on the team should benefit from Campbell's presence.

How did i forget him? Alot of other good ones here as well. Although i think Crabtree is actually going a bit high in the redrafts i have done so far.

 

[aldelgreco]

starting RB Joe Addai

 

[D'OHtis]

Overrated:

Shoddy McCoy

Underrated:

Chris Cooley

 

[zamboni]

WR - H. Ward - 100 Receptions is not out of the question with Holmes now gone

I don't disagree with the Ward selection (he caught 95 last year) but with the Holmes departure, a guy I think that is very overlooked is Heath Miller. No one talks about him, yet he quietly caught 76 balls last year with both Holmes and Ward there.

Very much agree with this list, and with Eli Manning and Joseph Addai. I will throw one more name out there: Ronnie Brown .

Sure, he gets dinged, but when this guy's healthy (and he is now) he's a monster. Brown was on pace for 1400 total yards and 15 TDs before he got hurt (even in a timeshare with Sticky Icky). In 12-team leagues, he's going in the mid 4th to early 5th round. Just spend an 8th or 9th round handcuff pick on Williams, and reap the rewards. He gets to start the year with a horrible Bills team at Buffalo (meaning one less cold-weather game to deal with),and his playoff stretch schedule is pretty sweet, the Jets notwithstanding:

12 Nov 28 MIA @ OAK Oakland Coliseum 4:05 PM

13 Dec 05 CLE @ MIA Sun Life Stadium 1:00 PM

14 Dec 12 MIA @ NYJ New Meadowlands Stadium 4:15 PM

15 Dec 19 BUF @ MIA Sun Life Stadium 1:00 PM

16 Dec 26 DET @ MIA Sun Life Stadium 1:00 PM

17 Jan 02 MIA @ NE Gillette Stadium 1:00 PM

Moderate Risk, Possible Huge Reward.

 

[3nOut]

Not all are my starters but I think I actually drafted the All Underrated team, lol.

QB: K Orton - He will put up much better numbers than people expect

RB: R Bush - Won't get goalline carries but getting more looks inside the ten.

RB: L Washington - Will be Seattle's #1 back and a value at where he's being drafted

WR: J Maclin - Might end up with better numbers than Desean

WR: James Jones - I think he may put up better numbers than Driver even if Driver is healthy

TE: Carlson - Will be blocking less and will be used more as a reciver. May be the best receiver on the team.

 

[Pip's Invitation]

WR - Deseaon Jackson (Not sure why this guy is sliding to the end of the 3rd round, but i am happy to take him there every time)

People are overemphasizing the "regression to the mean" theory, figuring he can't have as good a season as he did last year because he won't get as many long touchdowns. They overlook three things:1. The dude is insanely talented and can make a play at any time.2. Kolb doesn't throw as good a deep ball as McNabb, but he's more accurate on the short- and mid-range stuff. So DJax should see an increase in receptions, and he is as good as anyone in the league at turning a short or medium gain into a long one.3. 16 games is too small a sample size on which to do a reliable regression-to-the-mean analysis. Leave that stuff for fantasy baseball. In any case, I was able to get him at 4.01 in my redraft, and I'll take that any day.

 

[bicycle_seat_sniffer]

QB - Schaub - I always see him drafted after Brady & romo. He will out perform both

QB - Matt Ryan - snagging him as my backup early n often - going after Favre and Kolb, ugh.

RB - LeSean McCoy (ppr)

RB - Jospeh Addai

RB - Matt Forte

RB - Pierre Thomas

RB - CJ Spiller - getting less hype than Foster & Best, but i like him the best, I know its Buffalo but the kid has skills

WR - Steve Smith(nyg) - especially in PPR he will out score Hakem Nicks

WR - Dwayne Bowe - could rebound nicely

WR - Jabbar Gaffney

WR - Robert Meachem - Seems to slide every draft

WR - Mike Williams (TB) & (Sea) - late round fliers that could pan out

TE - Tony Gonzalez- He is likr the 7th TE off the boards

TE - Dustin Keller - The only person that Sanchez has a rapport with

TE - Todd Heap - have I lost my mind? he's healthy and can be had for nothing

 

[Pip's Invitation]

QB Chad Henne, MIA - Top 10 upside available for cheap. The ideal QB2 this year.

Agreed. He is my QB2 in every league I've drafted so far except two. One was an auction where I was outbid for him. The other is a 14-teamer where he is my QB1.

 

[dmac37]

QB Young- week 8-16 as the starter last year he was #10 QB in FF and has looked like a leader and confident QB this preseason.

RB Hillis- the perfect cheap injury/bye week RB plug in. He is ideal for FF as he will get a lot of receptions and is the goal line back. Everyone is down on the Browns but they have a good o-line and do one thing well- run the ball.

WR Berrian- I thought his stock would shoot up with S. Rice out but from what I can tell only a very slight bump. Harvin should see an increase in touches but should still play the same position. Berrian has WR 1A/1B talent and will take over for Rice, also was the Viking go to WR in the championship game looking better once he was healthy.

WR Holmes- top 10-20 WR in talent. Can be had cheap and during the 4 weeks of his suspension injuries and bye weeks have yet to really kick in.

TE Heath Miller/Cooley- both should be PPR gold, standing a good chance of leading their team in receptions. Also they seem to be drafted out of the top 10 TE's

There's some merit to this pick, but I think the Browns see Montario Hardesty as a potential feature RB. Tonight's performance will dictate much of what their offensive approach will be. Hillis will definitely be used in jumbo packages.

 

[Rick James]

If you take a look at the ADP sheets, and Dodds' TOP 300 list, you can see a WR who is clearly underrated: Hakeem Nicks.

Dodds ranks him as WR11, ahead of guys like Desean Jackson, Steve Smith (CAR), and Wes Welker. However, he has an ADP of 5.7 where those other guys are going in the 2nd-3rd rounds.
