I think he's somewhat underrated if anything, he came on huge amount in the last couple of seasons. I'd have preferred to get him a year or two ago, the whole Shaw thing has been a catastrophe & I'm almost certain that he'll go in the opposite direction (& typically absolutely boss it when he starts playing games under someone who loves him). But Rose will be excellent for us if he does arrive.
