EA Sports has started to reveal the player ratings for Madden NFL 15, starting with this year's rookie class. Yesterday, you may recall EA releasing a video in which several rookies predicted what they'd be rated in this year's game, only to be shocked with what they are actually going to be rated.
Below are the top rookies in Madden NFL 15. Not surprisingly, Houston Texans' Jadeveon Clowney, the overall number one pick in the draft, is the top-rated rookie with an 83 overall. The second overall pick, Greg Robinson (OL for the St. Louis Rams) has the second highest overall with 83 as well. As for quarterbacks, Blake Bortles is top of the class with a 78 overall. Johnny Manziel and Teddy Bridgewater aren't even in the top 13.
Check out the overall player ratings below, along with a few specific ratings for each player. It's worth noting that these ratings could change throughout the year with weekly roster updates depending on how the players perform.
