Overrated:

Vincent Jackson - Predicted at 8, finished at 87. Held out/suspended. Probably would have done decently had he played, as Rivers had a fairly strong year, and some of the Chargers nobody receivers ended up doing decently.

Sidney Rice - Predicted at 10, finished at 94. Injured, and the Vikes had major QB issues all year long.

Randy Moss - Predicted at 2, finished at 68. Started the season with an amazing catch. Then got traded to Minnesota. Then got traded to Tennessee. Never did much in either stop. May very well be done.

Steve Smith (CAR) - Predicted at 18, finished at 64. Looking at his games played, it doesn't seem like he had any major injuries. This was just a trainwreck year for the Panthers, and their stars (Smith, Williams, Stewart) all suffered accordingly.

Donald Driver - Predicted at 23, finished at 58. Missed a few games in the middle of the season. Didn't do much in the last few weeks either as Green Bay evolved into a multi-target offense and Aaron Rodgers did his Tom Brady impersonation.

Underrated:

Brandon Lloyd - Not predicted within the top 130, finished at 1. Doesn't get much more underrated than this. Where did this guy come from? Also, keep in mind that the guy posted double digit games in the final three games of the season, when the Broncos had nothing to play for and Tebow was starting at QB.

Steve Johnson - Predicted at 119, finished at 10. Can't fault em for this one. It's the Bills. They suck, and Lee Evans hogs all their decent numbers. Oops! Guess not. Well, about the Lee Evans part that is, they still suck.

Mike Williams - Predicted at 103, finished at 12. Just like Josh Freeman, came out of nowhere when Tampa decided to not blow.

Mario Manningham - Predicted at 49, finished at 17. Despite the team not doing so great, Eli Manning had a decent year and spread the ball around nicely, as many Giants WRs were dependable gameday starts.

Mike Wallace - Predicted at 34, finished at 6. Surpassed Hines Ward as the go-to guy for the Steelers. Simple as that.
