Just thinking...why is it that the overall rating of the vast majority of players in the league is in the B range? When trying to evaluate which players to waive/sign, to draft, to trade...it seems kind of pointless because most players (seems like over 80%) are B to B+. I mean, yeah, there are subtle differences (player A has a slightly better Health, but player B is faster, etc)
Do you guys think this setup accurately depicts real pro football? Honestly, I can't say what my opinion is. But I am used to Madden, where player ratings range from as low as 60 (undrafted rookie free agents) to 99 (Peyton Manning)
Like, for example, I was looking at this one WR I have and noticing that he was playing pretty crappy in the game, so I checked him out and he was a B. So I popped over to the Waivers and, turns out, the top 30 WR are essentially the same quality as my WR, no better no worse.
IMO this all just serves to make the game feel more random, since most of our rosters are roughly the same in strength. But I dunno; I'm a NEWB :)
Thoughts?

Hey guys, Shawn here from Denver Broncos. As some of you know I'm pretty new to this game.Just thinking...why is it that the overall rating of the vast majority of players in the league is in the B range?

hello new comer I am the Brooklyn team the reason that the rating is always B is because those are the players that you have to study to figure out what are their strengths and weaknesses are compared to a A rated player and honestly this setup doesn't really depict real football and how good are you at madden and which ones do you have?

Hey was it you who wanted Rae, my O guard? He's def available but I'd really like to get your TE who is really good. Shoot me another offer.

Been playing Madden since it first came out in the 90s! Pretty good at it...I'd give myself a B rating. ;)Hey was it you who wanted Rae, my O guard? He's def available but I'd really like to get your TE who is really good. Shoot me another offer.
