How is it that they add pictures for them but guys like Paul Oliver and Mike Tolbert still do not have them (and other guys without them)? I'm just curious and interested not complaining.

I suspect that those player were in the database but were hidden - good example is Adam Jones. They would have put him in there but hid him until he got the all clear to play for the Cowboys and now his picture is there.

That's my guess anyway.

They can't use the current year's headshots in game for some reason. If you notice, every picture is from last year's headshots, save the rookies, which are taken from the combine, as you can tell from the gray sweats they all wear. If a rookie had no combine invite, and in turn no photo, they cannot have a photo because their current season's headshot is for some reason not allowed.

Sucks, right?

I don't know about that. I watched the Bills-Rams game yesterday and the headshots CBS was using for Buffalo were the same ones used in Madden.
