Nice to see Manziel not on there. Ratings are still way too high though.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Top 10 Rookies

Legitimately shocked Manziel didn't somehow make it into this list. And I liked that Clowney was only an 83 as the top rated rookie. Hopefully, they'll release team-by-team now like they used to but I'm guessing they do a top-10 at each position like they've been doing.

watkins, mack should be closer to 83 and why is barr not in top 13?

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Top 10 Rookies

Moore on Robinson: His 94 RBK makes him the third-best run blocking LG in Madden NFL 15 from day one.

Maybe I'm a skeptic, but I refuse to believe that a rookie can just walk into the league and be among the best in the NFL in anything.

73 SPD/87 ACC for a Guard is just plain silly.

Couldn't have said it better myself, actually.

Basically I'll be editing these lol.

I definitely am gonna use the Rams. That d-line is going to be insane.

Evans is gonna be a beast for TB as well

Lol. Looks like the terrible/way to high ratings system in Madden continues. Why bother trying to make a game sim when the ratings are anything but sim? SMH

I think some rare talents can come in and have near elite level talent relatively speaking right away, but it's a rare case and none of these rookies have proven anything and definitely do not deserve to be rated in the top 3 of their positions in the base rosters.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Top 10 Rookies

Gonna be a treat to build this Jets D up with Rich, Wilk and Snacks on the D-Line and Milliner and Pryor in the back end

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Top 10 Rookies

Brotles is way to high. I was think 74 max.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Top 10 Rookies

Lol at Taylor Lewan. 6'7" 215 lbs.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Top 10 Rookies

Hmmm. Video states HHCD has 85 speed yet EA site states he has 90 speed. Which one is it?

HAHA CLINTON-DIX (79)
GREEN BAY PACKERS S
6'1, 208 POUNDS

Moore on Clinton-Dix: HHCD is good at everything, great at nothing. Solid in Zone Coverage (84) and can make plays with that 74 Catch rating and 90 Speed.
