The most overrated in the draft

[TheGhostofJimKelly]

I think this should be fun. Everyone here has their opinion on the draft prospects. Lets put down who everyone thinks is overrated.

My list:
1. Larry Fitzgerald, WR, Pitt - I am not saying that he isn't a very good receiver, but he isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread.
2. Phillip Rivers, QB, NC State - I know the kid is a winner, so was a lot of QBs that failed in the NFL. I am not sure where all the hype came from Rivers. He was projected as nothing more than a 3rd rounder at best last fall and now he is being labelled as one of the best QBs in the draft? By the way Drew Henson will be a better pro than Rivers, you heard it here first. I do like a lot of his intangibles except for the phyisical ones, which may be all he needs and if that's who the Bills go with then I will get my Rivers jersey.
3. Rashaun Woods, WR, Okl. St - I don't think Woods has the speed or the physical traits needed to be more than a #3.

AGREED!!! This guys a good QB but no way worthy of the push up he got. Especially the crazy folks saying he's worth more then BEN.

He's a 2nd round QB, At 13 way OVER RATED in my humble opinion, that release scares the crap outta me too

rivers was considered a late first day pick because of his mechanics.. scouts have worked him out and determined it is not an issue. henson couldnt hold rivers jock as far as performance.. henson just has great phyical skills.. but is not a winner.. has never been a winner.. and only played 4 good college games in his entire career.. there were also alot of great athletes that didnt do crap as qbs in the nfl.

rivers will own henson.. you heard it here first. although we wont even see henson for a while, considering it has been so long since he played football, he probably cant remember which lineman snaps the ball.. he will be lining up behind larry allen.

wow.. looking at your list ghost.. i couldnt disagree more with any of them.. lol. its all good though.. that is what makes it fun..

my most overrated.

eli manning
jonathan vilma

ELI IS OVERRATED!! I agree complelety. As for Mike Williams I dont think so. He will be a good WR IMO. Rivers is not overrated and Im one of his critics.

[Tatonka]

if eli's last name wasnt manning.. ben would be the first overall pick, and rivers would be the next qb taken.

manning would be fighting with losman for then 3rd spot.

[Tatonka]

i will reserve final judgement on mike williams till after he works out.

[TheGhostofJimKelly]

agree to disagree!!!!

Rivers overrated? LOL!

Whether you love him or hate him hes certainly not a 3rd rounder.

His mechanics are a little off but they work for him, and aside from ebing perhaps the smartest football wise QB in the draft.....nm not going into stats.

Just gonna simply say I think that thats a bit much.

my 3 would be:

Eli (one manning is bound to fail)
Mike Williams (dont think he spent enough time learning)
Will Smith (to small)

[Earthquake Enyart]

Andrews scares the crap out of me. He's got Aaron Gibson written all over him.

I'm not fond of Mike Williams either. Another Keyshawn.

his mechanics also help him.. he is the most accurate qb with the fastest release out of all the qbs in the draft.. because of his release.. that is why nfl personel has decided it is best to just leave it alone..

david car has the same release.
