bubba9497 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/story/11916896 Click link for entire article Dallas Cowboys Overrated: WR Roy Williams. Has he ever lived up to the hype? He had better now or Dallas will be in trouble at receiver. Underrated: NT Jay Ratliff. How he didn't make the Pro Bowl last season is a mystery. He was dominant. New York Giants Overrated: MLB Antonio Pierce. His bark is bigger than his bite. He is a good player but not nearly as good as some would believe. Underrated: LT David Diehl. He isn't an elite player, but after moving from guard, he has done a nice job at left tackle. Philadelphia Eagles Overrated: RB Brian Westbrook. He's a good player but some think he's great. He doesn't stay on the field, and for a guy who didn't rush for 1,000 yards last season, you'd think he was Adrian Peterson the way some talk about him. Underrated: S Quintin Mikell. He was the Eagles' best safety last season, not Brian Dawkins. He's a good tackler who has improved in pass coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OWUeagleMD Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 It's remarkable how much the perception of Westbrook has changed from last offseason to this offseason. I guess that's just how things go in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Westbrook's overrated? :doh: If there's a better all round back in this league I'd like to see him. Dude's a serious threat everytime he touches the darn ball. Prisco's a dick, period. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blue Joe Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 David Diehl doesn't deserve to be on this list. He's been at best serviceable as a pass protector the last two years. There's no mystery why the Giants took an LT in the second round of this year's draft. It's remarkable how much the perception of Westbrook has changed from last offseason to this offseason. I guess that's just how things go in the NFL.Same thing has happened to Osi. Injuries scare people. A lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that's just how things go in the NFL. It's the "what have you done for me lately" mentality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fsunoles0021 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 This sounds just like what I said about Westbrook 2 days ago. If you can't stay on the field, you can't be regarded as elite. Is he a great player when healthy? Of course. He's just not healthy very often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, the argument made against Westbrook could be made against MBII lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tr1 Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 tr1 has been singing his praises for sometime He was the major reason Where had so many sacks...that and the pukes' defensive scheme, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 LOL at Ratliff being the reason Ware got so many sacks. Ware is a dominant player and looking at Haynesworth money when he re-signs, ratliff won't see anything close to that. Alas, I digress. For me it's a toss up between MB3 and RW as the overrated dallass player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeMarco Murray 29 Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 He was the major reason Where had so many sacks...that and the pukes' defensive scheme, of course. Care to elaborate? I love Ratliff as much as the next Cowboy fan and at 290 he is more then a bargain at Nose Tackle. But him being the reason Ware gets Sacks is a joke. Ware get's the majority of his sacks by rushing the outside and abusing the double team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighOnHendrix Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 tr1 has been singing his praises for sometime Wait, what? That's just wrong. Bashing any and every Cowboy player, fan, coach, and everyone else in their organization is his schtick. tr1, you can't do this to us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Wait, what? That's just wrong. Bashing any and every Cowboy player, fan, coach, and everyone else in their organization is his schtick. tr1, you can't do this to us! He does it by saying Ware is average and he owes all his success to Ratliff, and before that it was Ellis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
