Year after year EA Sports pumps out a new Madden game. The game faces the scrutiny of inconsistencies, but one thing stays constant: rookies. The newcomers to the NFL always find themselves as some of the most used players in the game.

Whether you’re a St. Louis Rams fan and want to see if Sam Bradford will lead you to the promised land, or if you just questioned why exactly your Houston Texans drafted Mario Williams over Reggie Bush and Vince Young, all gamers share in their excitement to try out the new rookie class. So here is a list of the top five rookies to debut in Madden during this generation.

Best rookie in Madden 12: A.J Green. If not him, Julio Jones. Marcell Dareus would be the third best, and Von Miller probably has an outside shot at being in the top 3.

In Madden, any rookie with a 98+ speed was a god send. I didn't care about their AWR or anything else, usually. If the RB/WR/CB/LB/Safety had speed, I was good to go. Fumbling was a bit of an issue, but I usually turned Tatum Bell into a 1400 yard rusher because he was quick enough.

That being said, I've seen some wicked videos of Tim Tebow from M11 going 60 yards on a scramble after breaking 6 tackles, etc. (Don't look at my avatar!)

Cam Newton obviously should be a pretty studly QB for the game. A.J. Green, Patrick Peterson (will probably have the biggest impact defensively for a rookie). I also wouldn't count out Mark Ingram as possibly being beastly as a HB.

yea i knew from the get go that Megatron was gonna own because he is a Jump ball nightmare at 6'4-6'5 and weighs 235-240 pounds and runs a 4.3

and has mad hops and YAC abiltity

but Alex Smith idk i didnt expect much outta a Utah QB since this is waaay before the Spread was in the NFL

What about the jump from MJD? They didn't even get his name right when he was a rookie and he had like a 70 OVR rating. Now he's one of the top RB's in the game.

I believe Reggie Bush was the highest rated runningback and tied for highest at 87, and I would put him #2 on this list.

I disagree. IMO Patrick Peterson should be the best rated rookie, then AJ, then Dareus.
