Your Underrated Player

[yankees028]

I see these threads once and awhile but people are always throwing in players that are in there 80's or higher....

Lets make a rule right now no player above a 75

Couple of players that always seem to find a way onto my franchise this season.

Walter Mcfadden CB 64ovr - I had him on ultimate team and he was such a good CB and even got a ton of picks. Got him for my franchise and he is such a legit nickle corner

Noel Devine RB 65ovr - pretty much a easy pick his awareness set at 25 which is pretty much pointless but other then that he is such a soild back up RB. Also progress very well

Jonathan Baldwin WR 71ovr - Everything about him just screams poor man Owens/boldin. 91 speed with a 74 truck on top of that a 93 spec catch and a ridiculous 97 jump and o yah he is 6'4.

Herman Johnson - LG 62ovr - I usually bump his impact blocking up to a 75 and leave the rest as is. If so his big 6'7 382 body that just looks like a house in game progresses very well in two seasons. I have seen him get to as high as a 87.

I have a couple of others that I always seem to sign so I have them on special teams.

so who are your underrated gems that you have found? because I feel like some players no matter how low they are rated play very highly

Eric Decker is a beast, as is Jeff Maehl (only a 60 overall but catches in traffic very well)

Eric Decker, Demaryius Thomas, Jonathan Wilhite. Lance Ball is really good considering his rating too, as is Jason Hunter.

Re: Your Underrated Player

havent tried decker yet this year but last year I grabbed him when I had a injury and he was so good. Shipley is another one who catches everything

Re: Your Underrated Player

Noel Devine honestly plays like a high 80s player because that AWR of his just doesn't matter at all.

I agree with you on that if you turn his awareness to like a 70 he is a 84 I wanted to check. He is a very solid running back

Re: Your Underrated Player

I urge everyone to give Demaryius Thomas a shot. Size, speed, good catch ratings....he's amazing.

Darryl Washington, LB from Arizona is a nice sleeper...not sure his initial overall.

Yeah he's crazy good. He's hard to handle over the middle on slants, and if he beats the press, it's 6.

Re: Your Underrated Player

Walter Mcfadden has been great for me

Re: Your Underrated Player

Love seeing the players other people gave a shot to and how they out performed there rating.

Anyone have any luck with a lower rank QB?

In my chise with my buddy Palmer "we do a draft chise" went down and he picked up Tony Pike then traded palmer after. I had to check if he edited pike because he is playing stupid good.

Re: Your Underrated Player

Lower rated QBs perform good in anything other than All Madden. I have a tough time playing with Tebow because he's inaccurate, maybe a little too inaccurate on that setting. It's possible to do well with a low rated QB though, but it's tough. Gotta lead pass a lot.

Re: Your Underrated Player

Danny Amendola catches almost everything. He is short though, so he is best like on curls and slants.

Re: Your Underrated Player

Some OSers here told me to take a look at Wisconsin's RB, John Clay. He's a big bruiser that you can almost always find in the Free Agency in the first season of your franchise. Plays beyond his rating and has good potential.


Eric Decker is boss as well.
