In the east there was a limit to what a cavalry could do to the fact on the west was mountains and the ocean on the east. The answer is yes he was overrated he rode around McClellan, charged a regiment at first Manassas, lost Lee at Gettysburg raided Chambersburg and more events of questionable importance but his long term effect has little or no consequence on the war. Yet by dying on the field of battle he was made a legend.
