What's your top 5 most important Positions in the game?

[DaMenace18]

If you had to start build a team from scratch what would you say are the most important/least important positions in the game. So mention your top 5 on offense and defense.

Personally on offense, I feel that Quarterbacks are over rated in this game. With lead passing being toned down, I can make an average Quarterback like Alex Smith out play some the elite QB's in this game. Conversely, I think the safeties are the most important position on defense because I already mentioned that lead passing has been toned down so therefore high rated safeties are able to under cut deep routes much more effectively.

On Offense the best position in this years game is the RB's. Since blocking has improved you can dominate with an elite back.

On defense the most over rated position is still CB. Whether you play zone or man, I feel that there is minimal difference between an elite Cb and a mediocre CB.

But probably the most important aspect of Madden 25, are the offensive and defensive linemen. I always like playing with a team that can block effectively and on defense linemen that can bring the heat.

So with that being said.

Offense:
1.) RB
2.) O-line
3.) QB
4.) WR
5.) TE

Defense:
1.) FS
2.) SS
3.) D-line
4.) LB
5.) CB

Curious as to why you think WR on offense and CB on defense are the most important positions in this game?

I feel there is little difference between T.J Graham/Joe Morgan vs Torrey Smith

Offense - I utilize short passing so having a strong TE, Slot WR, and a good receiving FB is essential to my offense. O-Line isn't much of a concern because my passes are quick and I rarely run counters or delays. A semi-mobile QB with good short passing is perfect for my offense, and ideally I have a speed back who can receive.
1) TE
2) Slot WR
3) FB
4) QB
5) RB

Defense - Give me a strong DT with a bull rush move and I can consistently pressure the QB. Having an elite CB is huge because I play man-to-man and I really don't have to worry about getting beaten over the top on one side of the field. MLB has the best positioning of anyone on your team, so that player needs to be among your best. Having OLBs who excel in man coverage is a great way to shut down opposing tight ends and running backs receiving out of the backfield.
1) DT
2) CB
3) MLB
4) ROLB
5) LOLB

Offense:
1. TE-this is the easiest way to win imo, use your TE
2. HB
3. WR
4. QB

Defense
1. MLB
2. SS
3. CB
4. LOLB

If I had to pick 5 of the above 8
1. MLB
2. HB
3. SS
4. TE/WR
5. LOLB

1. SS
2. OLB
3. HB

[jatiger13]

1. QB
2. Pass rushing DE or OLB
3. LT
4. MLB
5. #1 CB

For me would be:

DE
LB
TE
OL
CB

As others have said I feel WR and QB can be switched out what it comes down to is your patience with them. I perfer fast WR always I like to spread the field so I have 4 wr and a TE. All with over 90 speed cant really beat that.

In my last draft I got in my france which I won 5 games first season. I took Grim DE , Sandcastle CB and Stone OL. Those three crutial picks litteralty carried me to the playoffs.
