I completely understand where you're coming from, but I'm just saying that AT LEAST for core attributes (speed, strength, agility, awareness, jumping, acceleration, injury and toughness), we should rate them all as if they are just players, not positionally. Just because I'm a safety doesn't mean my 90 rating is any slower than a 90 speed WR...two different positions, same rating..should be the same speed... See what I mean? Those ratings, in my opinion, do not give themselves to different positional weights, if you will...

Yeah your right, I get where you are coming from now. I also agree now that it makes sense.

Fully complete with all OVRs and attributes for 20000 players for next year (Madden 12 or NFL 2011 season).

So this site is more for Offline Franchise players, right? This site doesn't keep track of the weekly ratings released by EA during the season.

It keeps track of weekly ratings based on the FBG system, but is more for offline franchise, yes.

Just wanted to point out, there are ratings attributes I saw lower than 12 in Madden 11.

It's the same way in Madden 10. On the spreadsheets from last season they show some ratings lower than 12. However, when you go into the player editor in the game it will only allow you to go as far down as 12.

Can anyone else verify this please?

There are under 100 guys in the 90s in this system, so they are rare, but amazing on the field. Your average player? About a 70. This is how it is supposed to work. Thank you for your comments...I am glad someone gets it!

i get it too...but as a beloved bills fan..how can i possibly run a franchise with those ratings...eric wood a 47?

side note....i've noticed when u play teams in play now mode they have TEAM OVR in the 60s/70s but when u launch a franchise all the TEAM OVR get bunched closer together...why is this?
