sam bradford on madden

[sjacksonrules]

I've hear brafords not going to make it on madden till 11 comes out and he is gonna be rated at 80. Anyone know what his arm strength and accuracy would be? I can't wait till august to get a new qb. I made a player on there but I'm not sure if its completey accurate.

No way Madden is gonna rate a rookie QB above 75.

Re: sam bradford on madden

Yes, he won't be in the game til Madden 11. They cut off the roster updates at the tail end of the 2009 season. Marc Bulger is taking all my snaps.

Donny Moore HAS released his ratings for Sam. However EA is doing a new thing where the ratings he released can be adjusted by fans. His ratings might adjust slightly, but these are a real good indication as to where he'll be, and basically the fans are just inflating his ratings a little bit. Here they are:

Overall: 80

Agility: 63
Awareness: 63
Speed: 66
Throw Power: 87
Throw Acc Short: 95
Throw Acc Mid: 87
Throw Acc Deep: 72
Throw on the Run: 85
Play Action: 75

You can see them for yourself, and every other rookie's ratings from the first three rounds here: Madden NFL 11 Draft Experience : Live NFL Draft Coverage : EA SPORTS

I actually made a very authentic Sam Bradford in Madden 10 for a Superstar mode career. Fun stuff, I cannot wait for the real Sam in Madden 11

Re: sam bradford on madden

I think that's a fair assessment, especially since he's yet to take a snap in an NFL game. I like the rating a lot. The "GameFlow" aspect of the game and the new controls for running is a really nice touch.

Thats not true, I disagree.

I am not sure of the exact ratings, but I am sure if you check Madden 09 ( or madden 10, whichever game that Ryan, Sanchez and Flacco are on) you will see that all of their ratings are at least above 75. The game does not seem to lie when it comes to rating a player whether or not he has played in the NFL yet.

Proof of that is this : Almost the entire OL of the Pats is rated at 90 or above ( Matt Light, Dan Koppen, etc. ) with some being like 85.

ALmost the entire Giants and Colts O-lines are rated at 85 or higher ( with one or two 90's and maybe a 75 guy) with big names like Jeff Saturday, Tony Ugoh, and for the giants, Shaun O; Hara, David Diehl, etc.

The rams offensive line is overall rated at 75 or so. Jacob Bell is a 83 or so, Jason Brown is a 90, Jason Smith is a 80 ( 82 at RT and 75 at LT) meaning he probably should stay at RT. But ALex Barron is a 77 and Incognito is a 78, so that brings it down dramatically. Defensive players -James Laurinaitis was at least a 80 I think his first year, and Chris Long was a 77. But Leonard Little at his age is only a 83 or so, AND THAT GOES TO SHOW YOU HOW GOOD LONG SHOULD BE.

You can actually use the game as sort of a "crystal ball" in a way for rookies. But as funny as it sounds, the video game's stats dont lie! Its so amazing.

SO that means, if Bradford is gonna be a 80, that means he should be special.....

Re: sam bradford on madden

Don't think that a rookie has been rated so high on Madden before!

Re: sam bradford on madden

In terms of Donny's ratings on the Madden site, Bradford is actually tied for seventh highest in this class. The top ratings are...

Suh: 85 OVR
Berry: 85 OVR
McCoy: 84 OVR
Iupati: 84 OVR
Okung: 82 OVR
E. Thomas: 81 OVR
Bradford: 80 OVR
D. Bryant: 80 OVR

Really surprised about the ratings this year. Last years I think the highest rating were for Curry and Jason Smith, tied with 84 I think there was only one other person in the 80's and Sanchez and Stafford both had 77 if I remember correctly.

Re: sam bradford on madden

I bet anything that Sam's injury rating will be 20. ;)

Re: sam bradford on madden

I've made Sam already too, can't help myself lol
I also made gilyard, saffold and Murphy but the annoying thing is hair. Gilyard and Murphy have long hair like sjax and the best you can do for them is a small ponytail. Looks like crap!

Re: sam bradford on madden

Kinda hijacking the thread, but the questions been answered, but I am curious...

do any of you guys play madden online on 360? And if so do you use the Rams at all?

[sjacksonrules]

Re: sam bradford on madden

I don't play online cause I don't have live right now but if I did I would still play with the rams. I play against my buddies and win a lot against them everytime with the rams. They are my team no matter what just means u gotta step up your madden game to play through the roughness of being rated so low.

Re: sam bradford on madden

I'm strictly the Rams.
