It's because Aldon Smith isn't stupid and plays against him twice a year.

Remember that this list is voted on by the players. The fans are given the option to vote whether they think they feel the player should be higher or lower than his ranking. Most players score within 1000 votes one way or the other. So want to guess who is running away with the fan vote for most under-rated player? (you can see this by mousing over on the list).
That would be, you guessed it, Russell Wilson, with over a vote ratio of over +5000 votes. Percy Harvin is way up there too, with +3000 votes.
Granted, most of the players are graded at least slightly under-rated. Only a few are considered over-rated and those players tend to have smaller vote totals. There is one major exception though. At #81, not very high on the list mind you, Colin Kaepernick has -10,000 votes.

That was the best peice they've done on a player this whole countdown, just with the trash talk alone.

Thats some bull. But just makes the chip on Sherms shoulder that much bigger.

Who cares? The players are in a caccoon. All the better they let their ignorance guide them. Statistically Sherman is THE best CB in the league unless Revis comes back full strength and the difference is small either way.TJH":1p8efnek said:
All the while they're asked to do different things in different schemes!
More egregious is Wilson....or do you have a logical argument why he's 51 on this silly poll? Seriously. He's a top 5 quarterback proven even, yet on this poll 11 count them with me 11 quarterbacks in the league are better while erasing Keap and Ben from the conversation, really?
First we get Cam, what's next? Romo?

I can live with Eli being top 10. Won two superbowls and I remember him in 2005 against us. During our superbowl run. Not bad but not better than Wilson mind you, but in the zipcode. At least at the same point in his career.

After you watch the video, it's suddenly much easier to understand why so many players wouldn't vote for him.

Not really given I understand that the list is meaningless. I said a week or two ago that every Seahawk on the list will be consistently under ranked and so far it's exactly rolled out that way. Pro Football Weekly or Outsiders I forget which currently have a list out just like this which is much closer to reality of course it goes on actual production that happened in 2012 so it stands to reason it would be far more accurate.TJH":k6biyl0d said:

So did Darren Woodson said he was the best corner last year , as did Warren Sapp and Rhonde Barber..
Barber went on to say, all the off season stuff Sherman was doing was Genius... Said nobody on the west coast really knew of him until all the twitter stuff started happening... now he's a household name..
Rhonde Barber, future hall of fame, disagrees with this list, so do I

Yup...Justin is the only reason Aldon is any good. No OLB ever had a guy as good as Justin Smith next to him. Clearly thats the case because the 33.5 sacks in his first 2 seasons is a record. ANYONE lining up to Justin Smith could do that. Right?
Everyone LOVES to say Aldon fell off at the end because Justin wasn't in there...but neglect to mention the fact that Aldon was PLAYING HURT.
