Madden NFL 11 Player Ratings: Top Players at Each Position (K0ACHK)

[gmitch23]

Now Atlanta Falcon Back up FS Giordano was on the Packers roster last year.... and he still has his 91 speed rating..... and at no time during anything I witnessed during last season, was he even close to Collins in the speed department.

When Giordano was with the Colts the media said he was second fastest on the team, Giordano can fly.

Yeah that and the fact the M Turner is higher than benson and he had less than 900 yards. Was 19th in the leauge in rushing. WTF? lol

I'll co-sign that. When Chris Henry went down, the Bengals were pretty much one dimesional. Week after week, everyone knew what was coming and he still couldn't be stopped. Save those two, three games he missed and he would have been right behind Johnson for the league lead in yards.

Good to see Hall, Joseph and Bobbie Williams get a little love, but where's Whitworth?

Oh well, like I said in another post, rating as they're done here seem antiquated. I like to look deeper than just overalls.

imo, a 4.36 40 and then asking for a speed increase isnt homerism.

Bryant McKinney is a joke. He should be like a 79. He got taken out of 2 games last season because he was getting beaten so badly. Any speed rusher has his way with him.

Also, I think Ryan Picket should have been a top DT.

That's Jets D looks nasty. Ellis 86, Jenkins 94, Taylor 82, Harris 91, Scott 89, Revis 99, Leonhard 85. Then toss a rookie in Kyle Wilson who is a 77, Cromartie should be an 83ish. Our O-line is easily best in the game, good WRs. Here we gooooooooo

Benson had the lowest yards/attempt in the top 15 rushers last year.
His yards total was inflated by the fact that he ran so frequently. He had three 35 run attempt games and a further three 27+ attempt games. To put that in perspective, Adrian Peterson didn't have a single 27+ attempt game all season, Benson had 6.

I also happen to think the Bengals Oline is a top 5 Oline in the league as shown by Larry Johnson and Bernard Scott (his backups) having a better average than Benson over the season and shining in the games that Benson missed.
If Benson reproduces this season then boost him up but you can't say he's that good after the first good season of his career.

Nothing like a couple of alleged sexual assault incidents to drop a top QB from the ranks...Confusing how Roethlisberger isn't one of the top QB's....
