Over germinated? Yes I would plant them - if they are already past due then waiting longer isn't going to help at all.

i just did the same thing... over germed... had the initial starter leaves starting to grow in the papertowel... honestly i would already consider the seedlings when they first saw dirt... some were almost 3 inches long. anyway... 8 out of 9 survived... just make sure that u are very gentle, that u point the tap root down towards the bottom of the bucket, and that you BARELY cover the top set of leaves if its gotten that far... oh and also if u have a mister mist the soil around the seedling... dont drench is tsunami style by pouring water onto the planting.

I did this a while back one of my firsts posts at RIU too. If you have some leaves it should be ok just transplant the root tip below the leaves carefully.
