239 current NFL players anonymously voted.
Not surprisingly, the players chose Terrell "VH1>NFL Network" Owens as the most overrated player, who took in 14% of the vote. This one came as a bit of a shock to me-not because I didn't know that people hated TO, but because I didn't think some people perceived him still as a good player.
7% was the next highest vote, going to Tony "nine-at-nine" Romo. This one doesn't surprise me at all, actually, the only thing that does surprise me about this is how low of a percentage he received. No one gets more hype, has more weapons surrounding him, and cannot do squat then ya boi Tromo.
However-the third place vote getter is what really grinds my gears. Mark Sanchez ties Albert "Oh, a 3-4 defense refers to 3 down lineman" Haynesworth with 5% of the vote.
Fat Alby has one of the fattest contracts in football, and the guy has been living on the sidelines and the trading block since he arrived in D.C. All Mark Sanchez has done is silenced his critics, got over that god-forsaken "sophomore slump" and took the God Damn jets to the AFC championship in his rookie year.
Overrated??? Who the hell had such high expectations for a guy who played one year at USC and took on a Jets team that had no identity. You gotta be kidding me, guys!
Like anyone expected Sanchez to do what he did last year! Ca-mon!
Side notes- Eli took fourth with 4% of the vote. Who do I feel should have made the list?
- Favre
- Chad Ochocinco
- Joey Porter
- Matt Schaub
- Dwayne Bowe
- Laurence Maroney
- Doc Gooden
