Who is a Survivor contestant that doesn’t get the respect they deserve?

JT, he played one of the most perfect games on his first try. I don't care if he flopped on his second and third try when he knew the charming southern boy schtick wouldn't work as everyone had seen his game and had to completely change his game up, eradicating a lot of his strengths at the game in the process. Sandra had to do it in GC and WaW too. He is not an awful player or a below average player he is a great player, a great player with flaws, yes, but still a great player. It is especially funny when people slam him and then rate Tyson in the top 20, as if he hasn't made some terrible moves, and he doesn't have the amazing newbie win.

A lot of other dominant players that return and flop on returnee seasons as if Pre game threat level are not a thing.

Tommy, I understand it, He is easy to forget, but he is a good player
Russell, I understand it but I just can't rate him under Natalie as a player even though I believe Natalie deserved to win

Lauren Beck

a lot of 'side kicks' that aren't sidekick but actually partners.

Looking at Gabby, which arguably drove more of the direction of the game then Christian (although I do rate Christian a little higher due to social Game). LJ is another one and probably Leann.

And players people don't like which were actually threats in game such as Naonka and Brandon
