I think although Feanor was a bad guy (in the end) he was extremely important to everything that happened in Middle Earth in the First Age, whether it was good or not. He led the Elves to MiddleEarth and made that darned oath about the Silmarils. That got the split between the elves. The Silmarils he created also gave the elves motivation to fight Morgoth. So he wasn't overrated, just a creep.
