The folks over at NFL.com have been spending their summer reaching for content, and one of their latest attempts at story lines has been coming up with All-time underrated and overrated players lists for each team.

The short answer is “yes,” and that’s what I set out to do. So, limiting it to their time in Arizona only, here are the top five most underrated Cardinals (in no particular order).
