Who is underrated?
Offensive linemen Austin Corbett (75) and Robert Hunt (82) are a little low for the value they provide in real life. Yes, Corbett has been hit by the injury bug over the last couple of years, but when he's healthy, he's as solid as it gets. Defensive lineman Tershawn Wharton (76) should get a little more love as well, considering he was one of the top sack leaders on the Chiefs last season with 6.5.
Who is overrated?
While he's been Steady Eddie throughout his career, I'm a little surprised Taylor Moton (86) is rated as high as he is. He only allowed one sack last season, but I think he's hit the peak of his career, and should probably be around an 83 or 84.
