I disagree with overrated Dak.

Even in the most QB friendly system with all the help in the world, for a rookie QB to do what he did was immensely impressive.

It's the RG3 syndrome. Dak has been getting a ton of praise...some warranted, some not....but naturally he's going to be over-rated simply because of all the hype he's been getting.

Iupati reported slimmer than last year -- I think he knows he wasn't good last year and will be motivated to up his play this year.

Or the Vince Young or the Josh Freeman syndrome too because it can be real and Young and RGIII where far more impressive as a rookie in comparison to Dak

Qbs are very tough to read as rookies. Yes all of those guys were more impressive and far more hyped coming out of college because they were high draft picks expected to do well. Although Prescott did very well in college his overrated perception comes from being in Dallas and winning 13 games as a rookie. Something none of those aforementioned have done in the NFL if I recall correctly. Being in Dallas changes everything for a player. Even if you don't win in the playoffs. Ask your new lead analyst at cbs. He won just a couple playoff games.

Although they are different for me dak compares more to Russell Wilson because of the team being the right fit for him as well as having talent around him so that he can just do his job. The good thing about dak is that he is a humble guy and is a hard worker that is open to being criticized so that he can improve. He also is not a run first guy. With that said he has a lot to prove going into year 2. I don't expect him to win as many games this year.

for me dez Bryant has been the most overrated cowboys player of late. The cowboys were undefeated in the 3 games he missed last year and he really was a non factor until late in the season. He also had a key fumble with the game on the line at NYG.

Another overrated player for me is Odell Beckham not Eli. I'm interested to see how the giants look without manning. Don't get me wrong Beckham is a star and a highlight reel. But is he worth more than Brady or Rodgers??? No. He was a non factor when the giants were eliminated by Green Bay and had key drops in the game.
