Re: Madden NFL 16 Player Ratings: Top 5 Cornerbacks

Patrick Peterson or Haden should be in the top 5. Brent Grimes and Trufant have a good case also.

Interesting that all top 5 CBs are under 90 SPD...that's probably a first.

Re: Madden NFL 16 Player Ratings: Top 5 Cornerbacks

I like that Sean Smith finally got some recognition. He doesn't have elite CB speed, but plays to his strength, which is his height. He will be clutch to stop those aggressive catches.

I expect both Haden and Peterson to be 88-90 still.

Re: Madden NFL 16 Player Ratings: Top 5 Cornerbacks

PP had a bit of a rough year. Haden probably has a better case.

Regardless......

I'm concerned.

The speed rating re-scaling seems to only be in effect for vets. I don't mind the speed ratings being lowered across the board. I do mind that rookies and draft classes might not have the new speed rating parameter.

Melvin Gordon and Gurley faster than the top 5 cbs. Beasley and Fowler as fast or faster than top 5 CBs

If we are drafting 30+ guys a year with 94+ speed/accel what's the point?

Re: Madden NFL 16 Player Ratings: Top 5 Cornerbacks

Harris Jr is hands down the best corner, bar none. Gave up ZERO touchdowns last season with a .57 yards per catch on passes his way.. In almost 600 snaps

They better have toned down all incoming rookie's speed or it's going to be a useless maneuver 3 or 4 years into CFM.

He wasn't really guarding number 1s tho

Re: Madden NFL 16 Player Ratings: Top 5 Cornerbacks

He wasn't really guarding number 1st tho

Neither was Sherman.. I'd bet money that Harris followed the #1 or #2 as much as, if not more than what Revis did

Sherman stayed strictly to one side and never moved or followed a top WR

Re: Madden NFL 16 Player Ratings: Top 5 Cornerbacks

Harris is phenomenal. Every football metric analyser that I saw ranked him in the top 5 of cbs last season. He's more quick than fast, based on why I've seen on tv, hope his agility and acceleration are higher than then the 89 speed

I won't say he's the best, but he belongs in the top 5

Re: Madden NFL 16 Player Ratings: Top 5 Cornerbacks

Nice surprise to see Sean Smith on the list. I didn't think there'd be any way he would make it but he had a really nice season last year.

It's going to be interesting to see how this whole SPD thing works out. I wish they'd go more into it. It almost seems like they just dropped everyone but in a way where pretty much everyone will be bunched in the 80's and low 90's. Jamaal Charles got knocked 6 points from 98 to 92 but Sherman only went from 91 to 87. And then there's the rookies who don't seem to have been adjusted yet. I'd assume draft classes have been tweaked but with CFM the way it is, it's hard to say. A lot of questions left unanswered.

I'm just trying to figure out what they're using to determine the new speed ratings. I haven't found a stat yet that points to Melvin Gordon being faster than Chris Harris. It might exist, I just haven't seen it yet.

The altered speeds won't be a problem as long as they apply to everybody in the game.

I still think, for whatever reason, whatever adjustment they made wasn't or hadn't been applied to the rookies when they released the ratings but it's hard to say until they release the full spread sheets to see if anything has changed. I don't know how that possibly would or could be the case but the rookie SPD ratings seem too off compared to everything else released so far.

Re: Madden NFL 16 Player Ratings: Top 5 Cornerbacks

Im very surprised Patrick Peterson didn't make it or Haden. Happy about Sherman tho

[VdaStampede]

Re: Madden NFL 16 Player Ratings - Top Cornerbacks

These ratings are again too high imo especially Sherman.

Sort of topic, is new info about the game coming or have we heard everything were going to hear until the early release happens?
