I'd love to see someone try and make that case.firehawk350;2125687 said:Underrated... Greg Ellis - You can make the case for him being better than Ware (though I personally wouldn't).

Overrated - Ken Hamlin
firehawk350;2125687 said:Overrated... Tony Romo - Put him on any other roster (one that doesn't feature a top-3 TE and WR) and I will bet he ends up below average. Another nod to Marion Barber because he hasn't put up elite numbers but the consensus is he's a top-5 guy

Okay, I'll play along.
Over Rated...Patrick Crayton. Natural #3 WR, not a #2.
Under Rated...Brad Johnson. I don't even care for the guy myself, but I can't deny he has a calming influence.
How many guys get to the pro bowl only playing 2 downs? And don't say Roy Williams because he wasn't taken out on 3rd downs.abersonc;2125917 said:Wow, I would have thunk Bradie James would have been mentioned as under rated -- I felt he could have gone to the probowl last year over a few of the guys who did make it...

If having 100 tackles is all it takes to be a 'pro bowl caliber' player, then yes, he and the 33 other linebackers who had 100+ tackles would be pro bowl caliber.abersonc;2125968 said:Its what you do on those two downs -- and 100 tackles is nice production for a two down guy.
For the life of me, I can't think of 5 other safeties I'd rather have than Ken Hamlin. He's above average against both the run and the pass. His versatility is huge.BehindEnemyLinez;2125974 said:overrated: Hamlin. He's a more than adequate S but is nowhere near "franchise player (meaning top-5)" status.

Underrated... Greg Ellis - Dude puts up 13.5 sacks (if I remember correctly and I may not) and people want to trade him. You can make the case for him being better than Ware (though I personally wouldn't). Another nod to Ratliff.

Don't get me wrong, I like Hammer, but he doesn't scream "impact player" to me! He's solid and versatile, like you mentioned, but not a game-changer (which I'll admit is rare @ the S position).theogt;2125983 said:For the life of me, I can't think of 5 other safeties I'd rather have than Ken Hamlin.
