Some players I am categorizing as both, which may affect position rankings. *Note: there is some overlap between EDGEs and LBs. Trey Flowers just cracks the top 20, while Jamie Collins Sr.-listed as an outside linebacker by Madden-just misses out on the top 30. Rating: 83 - EDGE ranking: t-31st Romeo Okwara - Rating: 71 - EDGE ranking: t-155th Defensive end (EDGE)* Trey Flowers - Rating: 86 - EDGE ranking: t-19th Jamie Collins Sr. Meanwhile, one successful season isn’t enough to impress Madden rating adjusters. Defensive tackle Danny Shelton - Rating: 81 - DT ranking: 20th Da’Shawn Hand - Rating: 78 - DT ranking: t-29th Nick Williams - Rating: 68 - DT ranking: t-76thĭanny Shelton may be a little higher than some expected, and Da’Shawn Hand isn’t far behind. Everyone else is just muddled in the 63-64 rating range. Interesting to see that Madden thinks Joe Dahl is far and away the best guard on the team. Guard Joe Dahl - Rating: 68 - G ranking: t-53rd Kenny Wiggins - Rating: 64 - G ranking - t-84th Jonah Jackson - Rating: 63 - G ranking: t-93rd Joshua Garnett - Rating: 63 - G ranking: t-93rd Oday Aboushi - Rating: 63 - G ranking: t-9rd Ragnow is one of just two Lions players ranking in the top 10 at his position. Center Frank Ragnow - Rating: 83 - C ranking: 8th Vaitai clearly has a lot of skeptics, but he has a chance to change the narrative as a full-time starter for the first time in his career. Right tackle Halapoulivaati Vaitai - Rating: 67 - RT ranking: t-29th Left tackle Taylor Decker - Rating: 74 - LT ranking: t-17thĭecker ranks as an average left tackle, which is just about right. Not a lot of respect for the Lions’ tight ends, but that’s completely understandable given 2019. Hockenson - Rating: 77 - TE ranking: t-25th Jesse James - Rating: 70 - TE ranking: t-71st Perhaps just as surprising is seeing Jones just a single point behind him. After leading the league in touchdowns and coming seventh in receiving yards, Golladay barely cracked the top 20. Here’s, I assume, where the outrage will start with most Lions fans. Rating: 85 - WR ranking: t-23rd Danny Amendola - Rating: 80 - WR ranking: t-68th Wide receiver Kenny Golladay - Rating: 86 - WR ranking: t-20th Marvin Jones Jr. There aren’t many fullbacks left in this league, but Bawden ranks among the worst, according to EA. Fullback Nick Bawden - Rating: 66 - FB ranking: t-18th Believe it or not, Kerryon Johnson is actually up one point from last season. Madden is notoriously careful with rookie, giving them very low ratings until they “earn” it on the field. Running back Kerryon Johnson - Rating: 82 - RB ranking: t-24th D’Andre Swift - Rating: 74 - RB ranking t-60th Stafford falls just outside the top 10, but his rating increased from 79 last year. Quarterback Matthew Stafford - Rating: 83 - QB ranking: t-11th So to help get you worked up for no really good reason, here are the Madden 21 ratings for all of the Detroit Lions starters for the 2020 season. Personally, I couldn’t care less, but I am here in servitude to you, the reader. For whatever reason, people work themselves into a frenzy over Player A being disrespected by Electronic Arts, or Player B continuing to be overrated. Every year, people threaten to not buy the game, but ultimately do, because there’s no alternate choice to make.Ĭhief among the complaints-especially from NFL players themselves-are the player ratings. Every year around the release of the next version of the game, people complain about the franchise’s lack of changes year to year. Madden 21 remains one of the most successful sports video game franchises in the history of gaming, but you wouldn’t know it from the public perception of the game.
