Players who outplay their ratings.

[reggiekush43]

Who are some low rated players that make a ton of plays for you?
For me it has been Bruce irvin who even as a rookie is a sack Machine.
Janoris Jenkins.
and most recently Donta hightower.
I was about to trade hightower and my 1rst for von Miller (user team) but through 4 games Donta has been a absolute savage. 4 FF, 1 sack, and one pick 6. (all CPU controlled)
Also i have 5 picks with trumaine johnson in 4 games when hes a nickel CB.

Re: Players who outplay their ratings.

As you said Bruce Irvin is absolutely savage.
RGIII is incredible, but that is pretty obvious.
CJ Spiller is really good, and he is actually probably underrated in Madden (highest elusive rating in PFF history).
Dontari Poe and Fletcher Cox are both really good DT's that are amazing to user.
I also like Jon Baldwin of the Chiefs a lot because of his great hops.

Re: Players who outplay their ratings.

Oh man do I love me some Jonathon Baldwin(74), he can do anything.
Lestar Jean (68) on the Texans is quite similar too.
Jeff Demps (60 or 50 something) on the Patriots is my favorite this year, I always trade for him in ccm, etc, and he gets massive ypc and yac.

Re: Players who outplay their ratings.

Josh Gordon 74 and Travis Benjamin 66 both have amazing speed and catching ability Gordon has made some crazy one handed catches and Benjamin is always getting behind the defense. as far as defense Billy Winn and John Hughes play lights out and above there low ratings.

Demario Davis from the Jets as an MLB. He almost has the physical attributes of Patrick Willis. He's amazing.

Re: Players who outplay their ratings.

Dorin Dickerson on the Bills is their 66 OVR backup fullback. But the guy is an absolute scorcher with 90+ SPD and ACC, and he can completely stun people who aren't expecting a full back to burn their man deep.

Ausberry TE from the Raiders. Has 87spd

Re: Players who outplay their ratings.

I feel like offense it is pretty much any player with speed haha. i have done work with lamar miller and jacoby ford. Any player that has elite physical attributes can be dangerous regardless of their Overall. Taylor mays is another defender who i move around and send on blitzes alot and get plenty of sacks and TFL.

Re: Players who outplay their ratings.

Taylor Mays (95 speed 91 POW), TY Hilton (95 speed), Coby Fleener (88 speed 6'6)

Re: Players who outplay their ratings.

Basically name any player with high speed lol.

Here is a curveball Kellen Moore. I assume the OP meant OVR ratings.

[Unsung Hero]

Wide reciever TJ Graham (67) is absolutely ripping it up for me

Re: Players who outplay their ratings.

My secret list of players I pick up in almost every CC is as follows.


Mark Barron SS (81) Rookie.

This guy plays like a 10 year vet.
He has all the Physical tools in the world (94 hit power), and his Pursuit is a 89. He will find the ball carrier and will break him. This guy is made to kill people.
He's ok in pass coverage, but there is no better SS in the game for run stopping and flat coverage.


Michael Floyd WR (72) Rookie.

Floyd is a great talent. He will straight up catch the ball. 82 Catch, 86 CIT, and 87 SPC. Hes 6'3 with a 90 speed, 88 release, and 88 jumping. He plays like Megatron. Just throw the ball up and let him get it. At a 72, hes vastly underrated. Plus hes a rookie, meaning he will skyrocket in his raiting in the first few years.


Luke Kuechly ROLB (82) Rookie.

This guy as well is vastly underrated. Hes average at 82, but the guy plays like Patrick Willis. He is a decent pass rusher, a perfect tackler, but is FANTASTIC in coverage. I average about 6-9 INT's a season from him, in a 3-4 defense. Look at these stats. 90 jumping, 72 catch, 87 play recognition. and a solid 74 zone coverage. This guy was made to take the ball from the slot reciever. Not to mention he is one of the best tacklers in the game (94 tackle). He would make a perfect MLB in any 4-3 set, but can play any LB position in any scheme.


DeMarcus Van **** CB (68) Age 23 1 year player.

This guy is my second favorite Cb after Patrick Peterson.
This guy is a physical freak.
98 speed, hes 6'1, 67 catching, 75 and 71, man and zone respectively, and has a decent press at 76.

He CAN'T be beat deep, and will pick off any bad throws thrown his direction. I press him on every play, and just watch their deep threat try and run past him. He can single handedly take a Deshawn Jackson or a Randy Moss out of the game. This guy is a steal and is in the FA pool in every CC.

I didn't share my whole list... haha

Josh Gordon 74 and Travis Benjamin 66 both have amazing speed and catching ability Gordon has made some crazy one handed catches and Benjamin is always getting behind the defense. as far as defense Billy Winn and John Hughes play lights out and above there low ratings.

I like Josh Gordon as well, definitely the pick of the Browns receiving corps and while his speed isn't lights out, he'll catch anything you put near him. Agree with Joshzoladz about Kuechly - great all around LB in the 4-3. Signed Van**** on your recomendation bro!

My players are:

1. Mychael Kendricks LB (Eagles, Rookie, 78OVR) Sack Machine. ACC and SPD in 90's. Comes through gaps on blitz's like a missile. He's a touch lightweight and occasionaly misses tackles but with a little development, the guy is outstanding. Superstar development.
2. Greg Zeurlein K (78 OVR) May seem like a strange choice but i could count the touchbacks i had gotten with my regular kicker Dawson (88 OVR) on one hand. Greg the leg has 97 KPW and can be signed from the FA pool. Has made a huge difference on kick offs and resulting starting position. He's likely to be in my starter for at least 15yrs as long as he don't get greedy!

Lamar Miller(71 OVR)

This guy is an ABSOLUTE Monster! He was back-up to Reggie Bush, and Reggie gets tired quick, I was averaging 30 Carries, and around 160 a game. Hell of a player.
