Green started his career as a defensive back before he became a two-time All-Pro. The only shame is he didn't keep his No. 25 when he switched to receiver. (AP Photo)

Wells has been a huge disappointment during his time with the Cardinals. He rushed for more than 1,000 yards only once in four years. (AP Photo/Paul Jasienski)

Gore has joined a long legacy of great 49ers running backs. He just edged out John Taylor (who was my choice) as the most underrated. (AP Photo/Paul Jasienski)

Sorry, I'm not even going to dignify this one. I have to assume the 49ers haters got a hold of this. (AP Photo/Greg Trott)

Hasselbeck is still underrated according to Seahawks fans, even though he is the only quarterback in club history to lead the team to the Super Bowl. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast)

Well, this isn't as egregious as Montana as the most overrated 49ers player of all time, but this is still kind of bad. (AP Photo/Elaine Thompson)

This was a tight race as Lyght edged out Ron Jaworski and Vince Ferragamo. Flipper Anderson anybody? No?(National Football League)

I guess it was Everett's fault the club traded away Eric Dickerson during the quarterback's second season. (National Football League)

We asserted Elway does not get enough credit for when he took three deficient Broncos teams to the Super Bowl. The fans agreed. (AP Photo/Paul Spinelli)

That playoff win over the Steelers? It never happened. (AP Photo/David Drapkin)

A lot of quarterbacks embarrass themselves when they switch teams at the end of their career (looking at you, Johnny Unitas and Joe Namath). Montana didn't, and he doesn't get enough credit for it. (AP Photo/David Stluka)

Well, one thing we are missing here: Who exactly has rated Cassel? (AP Photo/Chris Ochsner)

Plunkett is the only quarterback who has won two Super Bowls as a starter and is not in the Pro Football Hall of Fame (of those who are eligible). Raiders fans say enough. Even this non-Raiders fan says so. (National Football League)

McFadden is clearly one of the most talented runners in the game, but he's been robbed by injuries during his young career. (AP Photo/Lenny Ignelzi)

The Chargers drafted Lowe in the fifth round of the 1976 NFL Draft. Lowe played 11 standout seasons for the team, and the fans gave him credit here. (National Football League)

The Boston signing was bad. But he did have 70 receptions for 880 yards and seven touchdowns. So it wasn't great, but probably not as bad as people remember, though he lasted just one season. (AP Photo/G. Newman Lowrance)

The Bears have had a great history of running backs from Gale Sayers to Walter Payton to Matt Forte today. Anderson is often overlooked because he followed arguably the best running back of all time. (AP Photo/John Swart)

The Fridge became an overnight sensation because fat guy running the football! But he was an average defender. (AP Photo)

Is it possible for Megatron to be underrated? According to the Lions fans, he is. Uh, sure. (AP Photo/Duane Burleson)

Suh was the second-overall selection of the 2010 NFL Draft. He's yet to make the leap to elite defensive player. (AP Photo/David Stluka)

Our Alex Gelhar said the fullback was one of the most underrated Packers of all time. Yes, the fullback. Well guess what, most of you agreed with him. (AP Photo/Scott Boehm)

While William Henderson was celebrated as one of the most underrated, the fans turned on Kuhn. Must be spurned fantasy owners who are tired of his touchdown vulturing ways. (AP Photo/Scott Boehm)

The Vikings grabbed Kleinsasser out of North Dakota in 1999 and he went on to do just about everything for the team over the next 13 seasons. (AP Photo/Scott Boehm)

Well, the Vikings fans need to offer no explanation having voted Walker the most overrated in club history. (AP Photo/Duncan Livingston)

Reed is often referred to as one of the best of his generation, and that's still not enough for the voters. (AP Photos/David Drapkin)

Hold on, I'm trying to decide if this is worse than Joe Montana being overrated. But glad to see Steelers fans took an active part in this poll. (Ric Tapia/NFL)

Anderson retired as one of the most prolific passers in the game. But the current rules and massive passing yardage totals have put him out of the minds of a lot of football fans. (AP Photo)

Everybody remembers the Ickey Shuffle. Nobody remembers he played just 20 games in four NFL seasons. (National Football League)

Browns followers widely consider Matthews the biggest of the team's snubs for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and they voted him as the club's most underrated. (National Football League)

Hillis is a little bit overrated, but who is to blame for that? All of you who voted him to the "Madden" cover. (AP Photo/Kevin Terrell)

Smith was largely unrecognized for his play during the 2000s, but Steelers fans made up for it here. (AP Photo/Scott Boehm)

The fans voted Wallace as the most overrated Steelers. The club might have agreed as it allowed Wallace to walk away as a free agent this year. (AP Photo/LM Otero)

The duo combined for 10 Pro Bowl selections, but were overshadowed by their more high-profile teammate Deion Sanders. Not here, though! (AP Photo)

Vick led the Falcons to a playoff win at Lambeau Field. But much of his Falcons career was filled with more hope and promise than actual wins on the field. (AP Photo/Scott Boehm)

The Panthers' version of "The Moose" got the acclaim for his solid 2004 numbers, but got very little recognition after that. (AP Photo/Bill Kostroun)

Foster was solid in the 2003 NFC Championship Game at Philadelphia. That kind of carried him through the rest of his career. (AP Photo/David Stluka)

Even though McAllister is the all-time leading rusher in club history, Saints fans still feel like he's overlooked. (AP Photo/David Drapkin)

You hear a lot of people say if Bush can reach his "old Saints form" in Detroit ... yeah, Saints fans want you to stop saying that. (AP Photo/Elaine Thompson)

A starter since his rookie season, Abraham posted five or more interceptions in five of his six seasons in Tampa Bay. My guess, where was Ricky Bell? Or better yet, Doug Williams? (AP Photo/Morry Gash)

For Keyshawn to match his mouth, Jerry Rice and Don Hutson would have to have a kid. And then that kid would have a kid with Michael Irvin and Cris Carter's kid. And then that kid would have a kid with Terrell Owens and Randy Moss' kid. And even that wouldn't help. (AP Photo/Tom Olmscheid)

Schaub has reached two Pro Bowls, but has continued to face criticism. That all stops here with the fan's vote! (AP Photo/Damian Strohmeyer)

Yes, Texans fans are still kind of bent by all the success Jones has had with the Ravens. Understandable. (AP Photo/Paul Spinelli)

Some consider Jones one of the most talented quarterbacks in not only club history, but NFL history. But his Colts teams were outgunned by the Steelers and Raiders in the 1970s. (National Football League)

Too easy. (AP Photo/Paul Spinelli)

Taylor had seven 1,000-yard seasons, and he's 15th on the NFL's all-time list with 11,695 rushing yards. But he doesn't get the attention he deserves because Jacksonville. (AP Photo/Jack Dempsey, File)

Well, he did have that one Pro Bowl appearance after virtually every other quarterback declined. So yeah, overrated! (AP Photo/Scott A. Miller)

He played in only one Pro Bowl and got only one All-Pro mention in his entire career, but he skillfully manned the right side of the Titans defense for at least eight solid years. (AP Photo/John Russell)

You know who isn't overrating Young right now? All of the owners who haven't signed him to a free-agent contract. (AP Photo/Frederick Breedon)

Romo was a small-school quarterback who went from undrafted free agent to Pro Bowl quarterback with huge numbers. He'd be celebrated with just about any other franchise. (AP Photo/James D Smith)

Wait, what? (AP Photo/ Bill Nichols)

Despite two Super Bowl victories, he is too often thought of as the "other" Manning. What he should be considered is the clutch Manning. (AP Photo/Gail Burton)

In fairness, Shockey was productive with the Giants. But it never seemed to measure up with the hype. (AP Photo/Scott Boehm)

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Irving Fryar (80) makes a catch in the rain during an NFL game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, Dec. 29, 1996, in San Francisco. The 49ers won the game, 14-0. (AP Photo/Greg Trott)

Asomugha never lived up to the reputation (or expectations) the Eagles' fans had for him. Surprised the Eagles' fans refused one last chance to knock Donovan McNabb. (AP Photo/Brian Garfinkel)

Fletcher has been one of the best at his position, but he didn't reach his first (of four) Pro Bowls until the 2009 season. (AP Photo/Paul Spinelli)

What wasn't overrated was the unintentional comedy. (AP Photo/David Drapkin)

Smerlas was a seemingly indestructible, All-Pro nose tackle who started every Bills game from 1980 through 1989 -- save the strike season of 1987. (AP Photo)

What were the Bills expecting here? Seriously, the Patriots thought so little of Bledsoe they traded him within the division. (AP Photo/Paul Spinelli)

If not for Jake Scott's two interceptions, Fernandez would likely have been the MVP of Super Bowl VII, which capped off Miami's undefeated 1972 season. (National Football League)

Parcells was unable to recapture the magic with the Dolphins, and the South Florida fans let him know about it.(AP Photo/J. Pat Carter, File)

People bemoan the lack of options for Tom Brady this season. But he won three Super Bowls with guys like Brown, who were just good football players. On both sides of the ball. (AP Photo/Scott Boehm)

Meriweather was a two-time Pro Bowl selection, but his career was marred with disappointment. (AP Photo/Greg Trott)

Just watch the Jets' current quarterback situation and you can't help but appreciate Pennington even more. (AP Photo/David Drapkin)

Scott was heavily pursued by the Ravens and Jets during his initial foray into free agency in 2009. And he produced in his first two seasons with the Jets, but it was nothing but underachieving and controversy after that. (AP Photo/Scott Boehm)
