  • I like Cam Newton but he's at the top of my just because of the "star" part of the question.

  • "there's no Andrew Luck in this draft" is in reference to him coming out of college not what he's done in the NFL.

  • My overrated stars would be Eli Manning and Andy Dalton.....

    and, instead of JJ Watt, how about his counter part Clowney....?....

    I'd have Manning as the most overrated football player but the star thing has me going elsewhere. Has Eli done a commercial without Peyton? And that is a serious question, not being sarcastic.

    I don't think Ben is overrated. Look how bad they are without him. He might not be pin-point accurate but I think of him as a top 5 qb in the league. Off the top of my head only Brady (ughh) and Rodgers are the only ones I would take over him.

    Clowney is still considered by many to be a bust, so how can he be an overrated "star". I think most have an optimistic outlook on him though as he has shown flashes, but he needs to show he can stay healthy. He is a big name because of his measurables, but nfl star, not so much.

    And what would be the purpose of this evaluation ? The whole "Luck" phenomena was projected NFL success. If not, who the hell would WANT to be the next "Andrew Luck" ?....or does being the "Andrew Luck of the draft" now mean, pouting, beat up and underperforming.....for whatever reason/excuse.

  • Nominating JJ Watt as the most overrated star in the NFL is a clear indication of the poster's 1) lack of understanding of the game, and 2) thinly veiled hatred of the man. Damn boy, the guy is no Rapistberger.

    I'd take 11 JJ Watts on defense and be happy to annually lead the league in fewest points allowed.

    As far as the most overrated star I'd have to throw our very own Joe Haden into the mix. Following a season where he was anointed as one of the league's best shut down corners and rewarded with a huge contract reflecting that skill he hasn't been on the field enough to make a positive impact, let alone live up to his contract. His injuries have also apparently affected his play as he has only been a shell of himself when he's on the field. I love the guy and I sport his jersey on Sundays, but a star in the league he is not.

    I would say Joe is overrated but again he's not a star
