There aren't just programmers guessing based on stats. These guys are football people. EA hires specific guy(s) for rosters whose knowledge of the sport would rival anyone on this board. Nobody's perfect and everyone will disagree on the value of certain players which will always result in arguments no matter who does them.
You are very wrong my friend. He used to have to OK the earlier maddens and pushed to have a lot of features to make it more like the real thing. Of course now I don't think he has any input because it's turned into a massive project with a huge budget, but in the beginning when it was small time he did.
