@ToothPickLegs just posted the opposite of this, but who are your all time under the radar players that never got enough love? I’ll go first with Tyson AluAlu between 2017-2020 before the foot injury. Going from basically a bust in Jacksonville to holding down the middle and anchoring the run defense for a number of years for the Steelers feels like it went unnoticed. In 2021 when he was injured the run D fell off a cliff too.
Mike Hilton was awesome in the slot.
Heyward-Bay reinvented himself in Pittsburgh and became an elite ST player, a mentor for younger receivers and did whatever he was asked to. Gotta respect a workhorse.
