I don't think sproles is underrated. Lance Moore is definitely underrated.

I wouldn't really call Sproles overrated. People who know and watch the league know he's very good, he's just not really a superstar name.

Now Lance Moore is about the exact definition of underrated. Dude makes some of the craziest catches and damn near has never dropped the ball.

I agree that Lance Moore is underrated...in fact, he's highly underrated.

He picked 2 from our team and the list didn't include PT. That's pretty bad.

He just picked people who put up monster stats that are mostly household names and put an "underrated" tag on them. No one in their right mind would call MJD anything less than a great RB on a terrible team.

Colston has had his share of drops over the past few seasons, but is still say Colston and PT should be on that list.

No way Sproles is UNDERrated. I love the guy but often times I feel like he is OVERrated. The guy drops just as many balls as any other pass catcher on the team and he turns down every return opportunity that comes his way (2012 season).

Edit: Colston has never made a probowl with the stats he has put up since '06 : underrated

#1 and #2 are bullshite.

The others listed are pretty good calls.

I would put Vince Wilfork on the list too.

Mike "Predator" Mckenzie.

Played on some terrible defenses and was consistently great.

From what I learned from Chad's pre-draft Tavon Austin thread, Lance Moore is "a dependable safety blanket, but he's not a difference maker nor a gamebreaker", and "is one of the worst in the business in YAC at a dismal ranking of 147th."

Apparently some here would argue that Moore's overrated by being underrated.
