Id day the biggest snubs would be Long and Feliciano who are rated 5+ lower than our 7th rd pick this year. Knox only being 1 higher than Sweeney is terrible.

I haven't looked yet, but I'm willing to bet that Mitch Morse dropped a bunch of rating points from last year simply for signing with the Bills. Not everybody can be 85-90 Hyde is 86 and a better all around player. Poyer should be right around 80-83 And ratings change weekly so he just needs to turn up to get a boost Edited July 16, 2019 by Buffalo716 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey 716, I always have problems finding this...didtey give an overall team ranking, or are they just teasing you with the players? It seems like that do that every year and i don't believe it is as simple as adding up the 53 ratings and dividing by 53.

You are correct that they did not release overalls team ratings and I would say you are correct that we will not be an 80 Madden Overalls are NOT perfectly dividable . They are weighted by certain criteria A QB with a high overall will significantly boost team overall . You can be a 79 overall with a 74 QB .. keep the same roster but insert a 91 QB and your team overall will be a 84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Allen should be around 78 I feel. Last year it started to click for him at the end and we were seeing rapid progress. I think by the end of the year he'll be around an 85. Im expecting continued progress, far from from elite but very adequate and acceptable progress. Enough where McDermott keeps his job and we all feel good. 11 wins and a wildcard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen is a hell of a scrambler in the game, and throwing bullet passes and long bombs with his arm strength can be lethal. Coupling that with a diverse zone defense and manually controlling Tremaine Edmunds and prowling the field for picks will equal wins. As much as I was able to find success with the Bills in '19, they should be downright deadly in '20, what with Smokey Brown on one side and Foster and the other and Beasley in the slot, not to mention the improved o-line.

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 ......bulletin board time........ Tre’Davious White: Bills will use Madden ratings as “extra motivation” Posted by Josh Alper on July 16, 2019, 12:14 PM EDT The release of this year’s Madden ratings has generated responses around the football world, including many players who feel their digital counterparts have been underrated by the game’s designers. According to cornerback Tre'Davious White, that group includes him and his teammates with the Bills. Safety Micah Hyde got the team’s highest ranking at 86, White is an 85 and two players — linebacker Lorenzo Alexander and running back LeSean McCoy — are rated as 82s in this year’s game. White said on NFL Network that he felt the Bills were “robbed” and that the team will use it as fuel for the coming season. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2019/07/16/tredavious-white-bills-will-use-madden-ratings-as-extra-motivation/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 .....he FINALLY wakes up and shows up and he's butt hurt?.....um ok....... Eric Ebron salty about his Madden rating Posted by Michael David Smith on July 16, 2019, 5:02 AM EDT Eric Ebron led all tight ends with 14 touchdowns last season, then added another in the playoffs. But his Madden rating doesn’t reflect that. Ebron, who had a breakout year in his first season in Indianapolis in 2018, has an 86 rating in Madden, tying him with Hunter Henry as the 10th-best tight end in the NFL. In a series of tweets, Ebron asked how the hell you can have an 86 rating with 15 touchdowns, described himself as “salty” and said of Madden, “It’s obvious they don’t know me.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDingus Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 21 hours ago, TheyCallMeAndy said: They did say that player overalls would be much lower this year, so 75-77 is your average NFL starter Exactly. I went through and looked at a lot of teams' players, and they look down overall. It's not like they overrated a lot of players this year either. Allen being a 74 is actually pretty generous considering the numbers got lowered overall. Ed Oliver being just 1 point off from being the top rated rookie is pretty favorable too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Tim Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 i love the math used here but sometimes i think they over analyze simple things- like Allen should be faster because he did it in game not just at 40 yard dash. that being said i doubt any player truly cares.
