Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans

Re: Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans

Titans SS Chris Hope is mad overrated at 87 overall.

Dude was awful last season and a major reason why the Titans were ranked 29th in the NFL against the pass.

Jake "The Snake" Locker

83 - Speed
87 - Acceleration
84 - Agility
95 - Throw Power
75 - Throw Short
77 - Throw Medium
83 - Throw Deep

Move over, Husselbutt! The Locker era begins August 30!

No way Locker should be that accurate.

Re: Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans

Almost all of Gabbert's throwing accuracy ratings are better than Garrard's. I thought him and Locker are supposed to be projects? They should be day 1 starters in user franchises.

Motell Owens is an 84 OVR FB, same as Greg Jones. Jones is one of the best FBs in the league, Owens is a special teams ace who never plays FB. Interesting OVR formula there.

Marcedes Lewis should have 90+ SPC (for the special animations). He always makes amazing catches down the seam.

Everything else looks pretty solid for the Jags.

Mallet can also start in users franchises(he will in my franchise). He comes in with 98 THP, 83 TAS, 84 TAM and PAC. Only thing that makes him lowly rated is his 41 AWR. He will be my starting QB for my Phins Franchise

NO! The Pats will not trade you Mallet!

Anyway, yeah, the rookie QBs seem fairly overrated in all of the ratings that matter when playing the game.

Although I know a lot of people claim that AWR does affect on field play for QBs so who knows?

I will trade Henne for Mallet. Heck I might even trade him back after I get Andrew Luck in the draft.
They are overatted, but it is only really the top 3(including Mallet). Dalton only high rated is TAS, all other are low.
AWR is a big factor, but if you are controlling them it isnt a factor
Using Mallet as a Starter and simming the season, there is a good chance for top pick

Mike Thomas is better than a 79.

Montell Owens is a special teams beast but he is NOT as good as Greg Jones at FB.

Re: Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans

Jason Jones needs to be switched to DE.
Add Tommie Campbell (7th rd pick), likely to win #4 CB spot. 6'3 205, runs a 4.35.
Hasselbeck should be around a low 80.
Barrett Ruud should be a high 80.
Shaun Smith roughly a 75.
Graham a 72-75.

What I like:
CJ2K looks to be unstoppable (again).
Britt, Washington, Gage, Mariani all 70+ WRs.. giving some decent tagets. Mariani finally has some speed at 92-92-93.
Jared Cook is the unknown killer. 76 overall, 85 speed/89 acc. Should be a threat.
Lockers ratings. 74 overall, 83 speed, 87 acc, 95 TP, 74 ACC. Then 75 Short Acc, 77 Mid, 83 Deep, with 90 Throw on Run. I'd say those are nearly perfect for Lock.
Solid OL, 91 - 80 - 73- 83 - 91
Ringer. 88 speed, but 95 acc. Should be a decent #2 option for a couple carries a game.

Overrated:
--> Chris Hope. He's an 87, and is WAY to high. Should be about a 79, at best. AWR and every coverage stat should be decreased Hope always gets burned is coverage.
--> Dave Ball. Currently at an 81. Ball is good, but not that high, maybe a 75ish.

Underrated:
--> Damian Williams. He's likely to be the starting slot WR for the Titans, but is a 67 overall. Also has a 82 acceleration? He doesn't have top end speed, but is very quick starting up. Shhould be about 88 speed, 92 acceleration. He'll get boosted when he gets more playing time. Lavelle Hawkins is rated higher.
--> Gerald McRath. More specifically his speed. Ran the 2nd fastest LB 40 in his combine, behind Curry. But is only an 81 speed. Witherspoon is faster than him? No way. McRath should be a 85+ speed, 85+ acceleration.
--> Rennie Curran. He doesn't get a lot of playing time, but he's a BIG HITTER. His Hit Power should be increased to 85+ easily. Just watch out for him this year in special teams.
-> Fernado Velasco. Got some playing time last year, and did great. Only a 54? He's probably our BEST OL off the bench. Should be more in the 70 range.

nice to see Titans fan on here really go in depth like this. Great breakdown

How is Jamaal Charles's elusiveness rating a 99, but Chris Johnson's is an 88?

Re: Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans

does Donny Moore honestly just give people ratings that he thinks are okay, then move their awareness up or down to boost or lower their overalls?

That's what I do when I play my friends and don't want them to realize I edited the rosters

[bmj2k7]

No i don't think the secondary for the Titans is overrated bc they play really well but there not the the Patriots where they don't need pressure to lead the league in turnovers, so if anything NE secondary is underrated!

[bmj2k7]

How is mercedes lewis a 90 ovr, i understand they have no weapons there, but thats a bit high for someone who finally had a good year after 6 years, and rob gronkowski had similar numbers and he's only a 84 and he has the best player in the league throwing him the ball. But hey it looks like Locker and Gabbert and Mallett will all be used a lot on madden this year, Mallett on another team bc he wont play as a Patriot, but Gabbert and Locker both have similar stats to there starting QB, and some stats are actually better so i won't be surprised when the rookies are starting , and there stats will increase more bc there all young players, so after a good season they will have a chance to actually be better after just 1 year bc awr will increase.

Re: Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans

Marcedes Lewis is a 90 OVR because he's one of the best complete TE's in the league. He was asked to be primarily a blocker in his early years, and then MJD took the redzone TD's from him most of the time because it was a safer choice than seeing if Garrard was going to make a good or bad pass.

Garrard finally started looking to him to make plays last year, and actually if you look at his progression it closely mirrors the numbers of Dallas Clark and other higher profile recieving TE's. Marcedes Lewis can catch, but he can also block and is one of the top blocking TE's in the league.

[bmj2k7]

He's not top 5 maybe not even top 10, bc there : gates, gonzalez, witten, clark, h miller, carlson z miller, gronkowski, maybe even olsen ahead of lewis, i would either one of the rookie Te's from the pats last year than lewis, espcially gronkowski who blocked almost every top DE in the gmae without allowing a sack, he blocked guys like peppers, freeny, mathis, cole, tuck, umenyoura, abraham, allen, i even thought after watching both guys play, that gronkowski was the biggest pro bowl snub last season bc his stats were near league best as a rookie, who split catches with another rookie TE i would take over lewis, both the rookies last year had more TDs in there 1st season than lewis had any year except last year, lewis is not 6 ovr higher than gronk, in real life bc ths year he will be even better and might put himself in that top 5 Te talk
