Does anyone have hidden gems, sleepers, or under the rader players?

[ashlomi]

Does anyone know any players who outpreforming their rating. I have a couple, taiwan jones (raiders 3rd string) has a 97 speed rating with little awarness great pickup, bruce irvin his physical rating is a 100 he just lacks intangibles? does anyone have any other players like this

Bruce Irvin is unstoppable in this game at LE. With the right tackle play being so poor (glitchy?) he will literally sprint past the right tackle on almost every play. He's a stud.

I drafted a CB who was like a 70 overall with mediocre coverage stats. Lucky for me, he's not only fast (95 speed), but he's a big time play-maker. I believe he had 5 INTs in his second season for me (got no play time his rookie year).

I could be wrong, but I don't think this is really what the OP is looking for.

conn is right
im really looking for active current players (im pretty sure drafts are randomized)

bruce irvin is a monster the problem with him is that he has no finnese hes a power rusher with to much speed

WR: Andre Holmes on the Cowboys.

6'5" - 91 Speed... His catching, catch-in-traffic and release are in the mid 70's.

Not the greatest WR in the game but that size and speed is a weapon.

In that case, I agree with the Taiwan Jones poster. I'd also add Justin Blackmon. He's only an 80 overall, but he catches EVERYTHING. Also, he's near impossible for me to stop defensively, unless I go manually double cover him.

Tarrence Ganaway and Bryan Thomas

A high first round pick like Blackmon is not really a sleeper, hidden gem or under the radar.

blackmon? he just made the HOF in a sim of mine. hes not under the radar.

there is a big issue with some of these rookie/first year players, especially at QB. you see EVERY SINGLE ryan tannehil type of player in the FA pool by year 5 having played zero downs or just spot play on an injury

He isn't under the radar, but he fits a portion of what the OP asked for which is somebody who outperforms their ratings.

Lamar Miller for the Dolphins is another one. A DE Ozougwu (sp?) is my fill in for one of my CCM's and he's pretty dominant (would start if I didn't have Super Mario). I like Vince Young on this game too, but then again Madden has always favored mobile QBs. George Wilson (SS) is very good all around; I think he's consistently putting up 3 sacks/5 INTs per season for me. CJ Spiller, minus fumbling alot, is electrifying.

Re: Does anyone have hidden gems, sleepers, or under the rader players?

HBs Taiwan jones and lamar miller
CB Van **** on the raiders has been out of his skin in my CCM
rookie jets TE Hayden Smith - terrible ratings, absolutely MONEY in every situation, catches everything, is always open, always gets 2 feet in, it's nuts

TE Michael Egnew on the Dolphins has caught everything i've thrown his way.

After the pre-seaon and a couple games in my Browns CC, Travis Benjamin has emerged as my best receiver...
