Making this thread to see if it sparks some debate/discussion- Post some players you see getting praised that you've watched and were a little confused about what everyone else is seeing. If possible don't just post "player X sucks", at least attempt to say why so others can debate. Or possible (doubtful) that there is a consensus and the player is indeed overrated.
My 1st player-
Richie Grant, S UCF- So far from what I've seen of Grant is a S that possesses some good traits of both a FS and SS, but no outstanding traits for either position.
-I'd say he's adequate in man coverage, but not someone you want to see left on an island routinely with legit receiving threats at either TE or slot WR.
-He's pretty good in deep 1/2 zone, but not the ballhawking sideline to sideline single high FS you look for.
-Fairly solid tackler and can hold his own in the box, but not a dynamic playmaker or hitter. Also slightly undersized at barely 200 lbs to live in that world in the NFL.
So the question remains- What am I missing? What skillset does Grant bring to the table that is going to make him a good starter at either FS or SS?
