Okay, this thread is designed to supplement lotusfather's Madden 25 Draft Guide thread.
The purpose of this thread is to identify players who, for one way or another, are rare in the realm of Madden 25.
Players with 99 SPD.
Players with 99 STR.
Oversized players.
Undersized players.
If something has made a player stand out in your mind, post the player's name, his draft class (if he's a drafted player), and what makes him special.
Here are just a few examples:
WR Shady Monroe
6'8" 240 lbs
Algrenon Keooudom Draft Class (QB Pop Warren / HB Hakeem Okonkwo [Nigerian Nightmare])
One of the only 6'8" players on the Offensive side of the ball in Madden 25.
TE Levine Toilolo
6'8"
Atlanta Falcons
One of the only 6'8" players on the Offensive side of the ball in Madden 25.
TE Leonard Pope
6'8"
Free Agent
One of the only 6'8" players on the Offensive side of the ball in Madden 25.
HB Hakeem Okonkwo [The New Nigerian Nightmare]
6'2" 260 lbs
Algrenon Keooudom Draft Class (QB Pop Warren / WR Shady Monroe)
One of the heaviest HB's in the game. [Note: he's kind of slow, so you'll have to boost his SPD quite a bit to make him a better all-around RB]
HB / WR Jaquin Murphy
6'3" 217
Algrenon Keooudom Draft Class (QB Pop Warren / HB Hakeem Okonkwo [Nigerian Nightmare])
One of the tallest players with 98 SPD that I know of. I was making a team where all of my players were like 6'6" and above, and not many of those players even have 90 or above SPD / ACC. I wanted a tall player who would be used strictly for Kick and Punt returning (the returner shouldn't take snaps on offense or defense ideally because of the way Madden 25 uses the Stamina stat during gameplay). I've ran back many TDs with him on Kickoffs, and a couple on Punts too. If you get the HB version of him, you can move him to FB, TE, or even back to WR. Ideally, I keep him at HB, because that allows you to sub him in at WR during the game. However, during the offseason, having him at HB allows you to maximize your XP by moving him temporarily to FB or TE, whichever position costs the least XP to upgrade whichever stat.
[Note1: His ACC is also like 95 or something equally high like that]
[Note2: Murphy frequently gets injured in his original draft class, and usually reappears in the draft class the following season. He usually reappears right at the end of the following season, just before the draft happens.]
TE William Shorter
6'3"
I believe he's in one of the draft classes that Jaquin Murphy above appears in.
He's a 6'3" TE with 99 SPD. I think his ACC is around like 85.
HB Tagasuka Sefo
6'0" 270 lbs
Todd Davis Draft Class
One of the heaviest HB's in Madden 25. Lotusfather's draft guide shows that he has 88 SPD and goes in the 1st Round usually. I'm about to sim through that season and draft him, so I'll update this with his other stats. 2 inches shorter, and 10 lbs heavier than fellow power-back Hakeem Okonkwo, the new Nigerian Nightmare. 99 Personality. I believe Hakeem Okonkwo starts with 85 or less SPD, so not only is this guy heavier, but he's apparently faster. Not sure what his ACC stat is yet.
TE Willie / Willis St. Pierre
I forget which draft class he's in to be honest. I can probably figure it out later.
Whether it was intentional, or a typo when they meant to type 6'5", he's a TE who is 5'6" and like 260-270 lbs. He's slow as molasses, so you'll need to feed him the ball to train his stats up with XP. Probably the shortest, heaviest player in the game. Also likely the highest weight/height ratio in the game.
