Does it bother anyone else that every has the same dirt mark on their left shoulder. Lol I don't know how I noticed it, but now it sticks out to me haha.

The only thing that bothers me is they grouped the lineman together as one group. Which would explain Ryan Clady missing from that list, as he would be a top five LT if they broke it down by position.

To be honest though, it would be nice to see them group the Tackles together, have the Guards/Centers together. Then when you go to sign them to a contract, you would choose his position he would play, which would add strategy since that player may be offered to play RT with you, but he could play LT for another team and get more money since Left Tackles, get paid more.

Wow, they scanned Joe Thomas' face into the game. Never thought I'd see the day. Very cool.

I like that the uniforms get marks on them and the player gets dirty. They should mix it up though so the players don't all have the same dirt mark.

Looking at that Sitton pic, nice to see Madden still doesn't know how to replicate long hair.

Sitton is really good, but not the 3rd best lineman. Can't wait to see hawk be a 90.

He's at least a top 5 guard. I hope the Hawk bit was sarcasm.

It was. But with all these crazy ratings (Kuhn, Wilson, Sitton) you never know.

Haha true. Although I've paid for premium at pro football focus for a few years now and I've seen some of Donny's ratings align with them. I mean it's debatable how credible they really are but I trust them and football outsiders more than espn or any other site.

Doesn't matter...OL ratings do not matter at all in the game....

Nice to see Evan Mathis getting well deserved love. Was expecting Jason Peters to be on this list ...

[seanhazz1]

As an Eagles fan, I'm glad to see Mathis on the list, but I thought Peters was our BEST, and one of the most dominant lineman in the league and he isn't listed?

"To me, it's the key to being a good pass blocker," Smith said. "Everybody talks about the feet. It's not always about the feet. It's about the ability to set based on where the quarterback is going to be. And you also have to factor in where the defensive end is aligned. I think it does take an understanding of angles. It also takes an understanding of hand placement when you meet the rusher at the intersection point.

"I think it's very, very critical. I think it's often overlooked. ... The technical part of pass blocking is probably more important than anything. Sometimes, guys who are lesser athletes have been outstanding pass blockers because they understand angles and they understand hand placement."
