Madden NFL 16 Player Ratings - Top Cornerbacks

[Yazan Gable]

Surprised no one mentioned how in one of the preview pictures for Madden 16 it had Russell Wilson at 86 speed. So he's just a bit slower than Sherman and as fast as Smith. Maybe he is, I dunno, but I wonder how that'll influence people like Kaepernick and i can't think of another fast QB unless they decide to preserve Vick being one of the fastest QBs in the NFL.

Mariota has 88 speed.. So he's a notch below these corners

Thrilled to see Harris and Smith make the cut, and equally as thrilled to see Peterson not in the top 5.

Haden for sure but Patrick Peterson is a little overrated & this is coming from a Cardinals fan who lives in Phoenix. He has all the physical tools & size you would want out of a CB, but he's undisciplined in coverage & gets burned a lot. Trust me I watch every Cardinals game & have been to several games in person. I think EA got this one right (with an argument for Haden)

Played vs non number 1 wrs and the Broncos had a great pass rush

Seattle's and New England's pass rush is nothing to scoff at. From a sheer grading standpoint, Chris Harris graded higher than anyone. And it wasn't even close

But some have gone down as much as seven when some as low as one so I'm not really sure if that's the only thing they did to speed or what but it's weird. Seems like overalls are down a bit as well. Marshawn Lynch 90-->85 Adrian Peterson 97-->90 Jamaal Charles 98-->92 DeMarco Murray 94-->89 Le'Veon Bell 86-->88 Antonio Brown 91-->90 Dez Bryant 92-->89 Odell Beckham Jr. 93-->92 Julio Jones 95-->92 Rob Gronkowski 83-->82 Jimmy Graham 85-->85 Aaron Donald 81-->82 Richard Sherman 91-->87 Darelle Revis 93-->88 Vontae Davis 93-->88 Chris Harris Jr. 91-->89 Sean Smith 88-->86

So RBs seemingly have taken biggest hit, but both the rookies (Gordon and Gurley) have 91 Speed, if I am not mistaken, so they are faster than AP and just a step behind Charles. Just seems off to me. I dunno.

Maybe there is some grand plan from EA as far as these ratings affecting gameplay in a positive way this year.

Edit

Maybe they have weighted the physical attributes (speed, agility, strength, acceleration) to count less towards the OVR rating?

All these guys useless after year 2 lol. When every team is littered with 95+ SPD WR's.
