Nice call. There is an argument to be made there.

Dak Prescott takes the cake here.

I think he’s probably just about the most underrated player on this roster.

Of the 7 players in the OP, Williams (age) and Kittle (media darling) have to be.

What had a bigger impact on the SB, Kelce's receiving or Kittle's blocking?

I think Jalen Hurts deserves to be mentioned here. How the hell does he not have a 4K yard season or 30 TD’s throwing to Devonta, Goedert and AJ Brown? Also had an elite OL.

Has any QB been in a better position talent wise the last 2 years? I’d honestly say Purdy might be the only one. And with Saquon now in Philly you’d think Jalen has the best supporting cast now.

He's such a weird one for me...like there's games where he commands the field, looks totally in rhythm running and throwing and you can see it but then there's games where he just looks like he couldn't give a **** less and you're wondering what they see in him.

I think the most overrated player is Austin Ekeler.

He's a really good player, but he was ranked #21 on the Top 100 last year. He's not an elite player, and may not even be a top 100 player.

I also need another season before I arrive at this conclusion, but Jalen Hurts might be the most overrated player.

After the Super Bowl he lost to Mahomes, I legit thought he was the #2 QB in the NFL. As AJ Brown increasingly sidelined himself, Hurts started showing all kinds of holes in his game.

Austin Ekeler fell off a cliff last year. Of course he's nowhere near as good as his ranking before the season, which was already a little high.

Great choice, and I completely agree he has without question the best supporting cast in football along with Purdy. I couldn't even imagine what Mahomes would do with that kind of skill around him. He had it in 2018 when he didn't even know what he was doing yet and went for 5k and 50 tuddys, couldn't even imagine what he would do with that kind of cast now.

I’d also add Joe Mixon to the discussion.

Career 4.1 yards per carry.

1 season at 4.9 yards per carry. The rest were no higher than 4.1. 3 seasons under 4 yards per carry.

That’s with all those WRs taking attention from him.

Great question and in line with what I was thinking...no TE or WR is better than the QB throwing to them. Nick Mullens used Kittle as a crutch (their next best receiver was Pettis in 2018) and not surprisingly, Kittle put up big numbers. Garoppolo didn't target Kittle much and as time went on Shanahan put the clamps on Garoppolo. Purdy spreads the ball around much more, but he has too many weapons, so Kittle doesn't get near the targets that Kelce gets...and of course there is no better thrower than Mahomes

Brock Purdy. Fred Warner. Purdy looked shaky in the playoffs, despite the wins. Warner seems to be dragged downfield 4-5 yards every play.

Kittle not over-rated. He and Kelce are the top of the league in terms of skills and talents. Put Kittle on a more prolific passing team with less weapons and he would light up the league. When he's been the focus of the 49ers offense, he put up big stats.

Meh, I don't see it. I mean, did anyone ever think that Mixon was going to be one of the best RBs in the game? I'm a diehard OU fan I never felt that way about him. I always thought he could be a good starting RB, and he's been that. Not great or elite, but solid.
