Anthony Barr Named Vikings Most Underrated Player

Pete Prisco of CBS Sports took a look Thursday at each NFL team and identified the player he thinks is the most underrated on the roster. For the Vikings, Prisco said linebacker Anthony Barr doesn’t get enough love. Prisco wrote:

Barr, the team's first-round pick in 2014, has developed into one of the best outside linebackers in the league. He is long and can run and has instincts needed for the position. His interception of Peyton Manning against Denver last season shows his ability to play in coverage. I also think if he rushed more, his sack numbers would go up after getting 3.
