It is impossible for any running back to be anywhere near the most underrated player in the NFL.

Do you see why?

no i don't see why, he doesn't get credit for being an elite back. You can run an entire west coast offense threw him

just because the quarterback position, among others is much more valuable than the running back psotion doesn't mean a running back can't be the most underated player in the game

Aal, the point about QB's is true. They get a lot of credit.

But what about the O-Lineman? What about the shutdown corners? What about the D-Lineman?

These guys are way more underrated than Westbrook is.

I'm not so sure about this. I guess it depends on how you define underrated. If you're talking in terms of overall value, then you're right. You know I'm in the boat of QB>>>>>RB.

But in terms of how Westbrook is compared to other running backs in the NFL, I would say he is very underrated.

Tiki Barber is almost the perfect cast study for Westbrook - started out as a 3rd down type back, eventually morphed into an every down back and turned into one of the best in the game. It took some time for Tiki to get recognized - and Westy is in that same position. It will come.
