Why do you think he's underrated? He visited every talk show in the world after the SuperBowl with many saying he should have been MVP. He got a monster contract extension in the offseason. I'd say he's performing well as expected. He's rated highly by everyone.

Do you thrive on contrarian viewpoints? "Monster" contract is pretty far from reality. He barely squeaks into the top 20 for RB: NFL Rankings
And lest you say he's not much of a runner, and should be considered a quasi-receiver, note that 45 players are listed ahead of him at WR: NFL Rankings
Until the Super Bowl, the average NFL fan had no idea who he was, and even now, I never hear him come up in discussions of the top players at his position. He's an elite third down back, so I think it's safe to say that he's still underrated. Currently he's on pace for nearly 100 catches, yet I highly doubt he'll receive any pro bowl buzz. He's tough, consistent, reliable, and productive, but not flashy, and somehow that seems to blind the general public to his talent.
