    PFW takes a look at 25 players who we predict will either struggle to meet or exceed draft expectations. Those deemed overrated could still turn out to be solid pros. However, they are likely to struggle living up to the value of where they are drafted.

    Conversely, those deemed underrated could turn out to be bargains for where they potentially could be drafted. In cases where a player will be drafted early in the first round, such as in the case of Branden Albert and Jonathan Stewart, we see little risk and the likelihood for greatness to be reached.

    "CB Aqib Talib, Kansas*
    Lack of functional playing speed and tendency to gamble and give up big plays could leave him with DeAngelo Hall-esque reputation as an overhyped corner who gets beat as much as he makes big plays."

    Didn't he run a solid 4.4?

    Also, I would put Darren McFadden on the overrated list.

    I agree. The guy will never be a full time back imo, possible Reggie Bush replica?
