Current overrated-I've got to agree with SS on Helu. Dude has zero vision as a running back. I was watching the Saints game again recently and he had a stretch play blocked beautifully for him to get to the edge and down the sideline. He cut inside, tripped over Young (who had a great seal block) and fell down for a 3 yard gain. I wish he had a fraction of the vision that Morris and Royster possess but I think he will be a disappointment as a Redskin.

Current Underrated-Garcon and Morgan. They don't have the draft pedigree or contracts of the other WR groups in our division, but for our system, I like them as much as any. Garcon showed an array of skills last year and you can't argue with 9-2 when he starts the game. Morgan got off on a bad note with the Rams debacle but he was our most consistent WR last year in terms of moving the chains and catching the ball. A healthy offseason and he could break out this fall.
I totally agree, LA was without a doubt the most over-rated Redskin ever.

Currently I think Brian Orakpo is very over-rated. It seems like we hear a lot about the great thing he's going to do but he never seems to do them.

Arrington ended Aikman, and thus has a pass and can not ever be listed as overrated.
