Madden NFL 15 - Top Cornerbacks

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Top Cornerbacks

well these overalls are basically the same ones all players ended up with in 25 looking at them and talib was rated only a 88 in 25 with that rating he wont even be sniffing the top 10 if he has same.


in fact in 25 he was rated 14th highest cb. he was tied with 8 other players with the 88 overall.

The only difference is that Haden's acceleration has increased by a whopping one point.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Top Cornerbacks

I saw a lot of Generic faces in that list, unfortunately.
Peterson, Davis, and Haden look like they weren't face scanned.

There is little to no difference between a 80 OVR and a 99 OVR in respect to the same positions.

Other than for some cosmetic point of view, that 80 OVR will play/animate pretty much the same as that 99 OVR.

With so many players rated so high, player rated under 75 OVR have no value in the overall gameplay aspect.

Not one team has players consistently getting play time by the AI, none. (even Hum players do the same)

So the game is reduced to basically a "25 pt" scale between players, which in many ways devalues having a player like R. Sherman vs an unknown/proven corner. (dealing with Madden gameplay)

Just wish ratings would have more substance and weight applied to them dealing with what they mean to actual gameplay.

Talib should have been #5. Davis is not a top 5 CB.

what about peanut tillman?

Not even the best corner on his team.

I want to know what Desmond Trufant and Janoris Jenkins are rated

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Top Cornerbacks

LOL @ Vontae Davis. I think he had a good year but he's only had what? 2 good years in the league. Him and Sean Smith were talking best duo in the league for a while haha...overall not a bad top 5 I guess. I'd give it some leeway because the rest of the ratings have been on point so far.

Re: Madden NFL 15 - Top Cornerbacks

Have found that Man Cover and Press has been the 2 overwhelming factors in Madden the past couple of years. Overall is often inflated by Awareness and Play Recognition which helps but is not essential in actual gameplay

Not a Dolphins fan, but does anyone other than myself think Brent Grimes should've been top 5?

Moore tweeted that Grimes is a 91, so he is just one point lower than fifth spot

I don't know why we as Madden fans get so worked up about ratings. I get wanting ratings to "matter more". But don't be disappointed someone isn't in the top five or is in the top 5. We all know by week 4 a lot of these ratings will have changed for better or worst. Just enjoy the build up to release date with the sneak peaks they're giving us. Their rankings will fluctuate.

Haden is one of the top 5 most overrated players in the league. I live in northeast Ohio so I get to watch all of their games and he gives up a big reception everygame. I don't see what the obsession with him is.

Not to mention most of us, especially on this site, will end up either downloading adjusted rosters or fixing them ourselves. I know I spend the first week adjusting every single rating in the game so there aren't so many 90+ players.

Trumaine Beast'd last season. But you're wrong about the Giants having a bad defense. They started the year off shakey the first five games, cuz of injuries and lack of adjustments. But started improving a lot once Beason, McBride and Hill cracked the line up. They played more of that Man/Cover 2 hybrid. 7-3 once those guys started to start
