ESPN is seriously lightyears ahead of Madden in terms of ratings programming. In ESPN, there are 4 ratings which provide a player with his own personal intangibles and gives him a truly distict feel outside of his raw abilities.

-leadership
-aggressivness
-composure
-consistency

these four together help to distiguish different "types" of players and not just fast/slow, good/bad hands, arm, strength between players.

The only intangible rating in madden is awareness, and this is way too generalized and unknown in its actual gameplay function (outside of the vision cone for QB's).

I do not see how it is even feesible to convert rating between games because madden's are much simpler in design than ESPN's.
