    Re: Madden 11 Player Ratings: Who’s Overrated And Who’s Undervalued (Sportsgrid)

    Underrated:

    Big Ben - 88 ovr (93 ovr)
    Calvin Johnson - 91 ovr (96 ovr)
    Ray Rice - 90 ovr (95 ovr)

    The only reason WR Jackson is overrated to me is because Calvin is the same overall as him. I would just bump up Calvin though, and leave Jackson's rating the same, because in no way should they be the same overall.
    Have an awesome day!!

Desean may seem one dimensional to you because you saw his long touchdowns and you assume that's all he does. But your dumb and don't realize that he is a great route runner and did learn from the best, jerry rice. He explodes off the line of scrimmage using his speed, runs his route greatly, modifies his route to adjust to the defense and get open. And yes he does go across the middle. I.e. against the chiefs last season. He then blows by everyone for a score. He also deserves a high rating. When you are arguably the most explosive and dangerous player in NFL, tie the record for most 50+ yard TDs and play well at your position you should be rated an elite player. And whoever tried to say he wasnt the first to be voted to 2 positions as a starter is pretty close to ********. He was the first starter at 2 positions in the pro bowl and it was well documented during the game even. HE WAS VOTED AS A STARTER are the main words there. And who needs over 65 receptions when you only need a couple per game to make your team win. And no one can hate on him for fumbling the ball on the 1 yard line. That was one of his few turnovers and the eagles scored on the very next play. Desean Jackson scores touchdowns no matter what. If it means catching, returning punts, running the ball or anything else. He gets it done. Only educated responses are accepted. Thank you to davey225 for knowing what he is talking about.
      Oh the irony!

      You're an Eagles fan.....we get it. He was nearly invisible in the wildcard game.

        Taking a quick peek at the Ravens O-line, Grubbs is overrated, while Gaither and Yanda are underrated.

You had the best D in the league, but that doesnt mean everybody needs that little ratings boost. i wish there was a way that madden could make the Defensive unit play better or worse together, maybe impliment a chemistry rating.
          Jericho Cotchery - 87 rating??? Sanchez - 87 rating??? LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

            Everyone on the Jets roster
            Jarrett Bush (whatever his rating is, it's too high)
            The Vikings and the Jets would destroy the Packers. The Vikings did it twice last year.

            Stop hating.

                I'd say the entire dallas cowboys team seem over rated to me. For example Terrance Newman. How often during a season do they break down how that dude has horrible cover skills. Which he covers up with his speed. Which there is no way he should be rated that high in the speed category. Why is he considered good when people in his position who are not considered elite have far more ints?

                Felix jones yeah he's fast but I don't think i've seen him break any tackles. and he gets hurt easily.

                the cowboys in madden 10 make plays no other team is out there making and if that repeats with madden 11. i'll be pissed.

                  Newman is solid most of the time. Newman is also one of the fastest players in the NFL. He does get beat from time to time but he is a very good corner. Felix is fine. Felix does break a good amount of tackles. He didn't have a bad injury report coming out of Arkansas according to scouts and ex-coaches either. If anything Barber is the only overrated player as far as backs go and he played with a torn muscle in his leg ALL of last season.

                    Major points being made here especially on Newman...how many times to you need to see him get burnt on a televised broadcast before you drop his rating...geez

                    And on the subject of Jones and Barber...Jones does not break tackles like he's rated at best he should be in the 70 range for elusiveness he's not in elite status by far...and he's injury riddled maybe not the bigtime injuries but he stays on IR...Barber's trucking needs to come down to the 70 range also not elite there...Barber's best weapon is his stiff arm which he is elite IMO other than that you hit it right on the head...also both of their injury ratings should be dropped too

                      Look at this video and tell me Felix Jones should be a 70 range elusiveness. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCEiCsagym4

                      Felix does not stay on the IR, he's be on there once. Last season he played all 16 games including playoffs. I believe Barber's injury rating should go down, he played with a torn quad all season, but that was just last season. Jones is an elite back, he is just sharing carries with another elite back, Marion Barber.

                        There's a reason is called a highlight tape...best clips...in this video no one is touching Felix...that is real life elusiveness...in madden elusiveness breaks tackles...in real life elusiveness evades tackles...mostly in madden when RB's go for big gains they do it by breaking multiple tackles...so in that video felix broke 3 or 4 tackles...meaning a defender actually touched him...in madden you can double that easily within a game with him...last season he played 14gms and the year before that 6gms...if Jones was such an "elite" back he wouldn't be sharing carries with a injury prone "elite" back

                          Underrated player of the year, Fred Jackson RB for the bills. He was second in the LEAGUE in all purpose yards (rushing, recieving, returning.) Not to mention how horrid the o line in buffalo was he still manged 1000+ yards. He in my mind is not an elite 90+ player but atleast an 87.

                            Correction, Fred Jackson led the league. He had 7 yards more than cj2k. Just looked it up. He is easily the most undervalued player in this game.

                              J-Stew for Carolina is only a 88, come on now, i think he should be 90-91 and DeAngelo Williams should be 93-95

                                I think the ratings are balls for this game. Especially rookies and QBs. And it seems like if you're on a good team, everyone's good but if you're on a bad team, EVERYBODY is bad, or lower than they deserve. And potentials are ****.

                                Anyway, for the Eagles:
                                Overrated:
                                M. Kafka - crap, should be 58-59
                                C. Scott - won't even make the team. 55-60
                                D. Jackson - not a 91. 87-89. Still amazing
                                K. Washington - **** ST player. 63-68
                                N. Cole - garbage C. Not a bad guard. 72-73
                                M. Jean-Gilles - garbage. 65-68
                                S. Andrews - ****. 74-79
                                J. Hanson and M. Harris - 71 and 68, respectively

                                Underrated:
                                K. Kolb - trained for 3 years and traded Nabb. AT LEAST 78
                                J. Maclin - he's like a bigger Jackson. 83-84
                                J. Avant - he'll never get ratings love, but could be as high as 80
                                J. Jackson - got hurt but when healthy is solid C. 82-84
                                W. Justice - very good pass pro. 80-84
                                S. Bradley and E. Sims - 81 and 85

                                I know no one cares about backups but this is pretty much how I edited my Eagles.
