Old Madden Ratings Site Reborn Under New Management

So does that mean you will be providing ncaa draft classes to prevent cpu/imported classes from being ridiculously over-rated?

If it is possible for us to create our own draft classes then we can most certainly try. However, if we are to get the players rated for Madden correctly (ie: best rookies being around 70 OVR in stead of 80) we would have to adjust the draft classes which I am not even sure is possible. With the old PC versions you could but I doubt you can on the consoles.

I would just like to inform anyone who has been looking at the site that it is currently down. We are moving to some new servers in Texas, LA, and Chicago so it will be down for most of the day. It should be up again tonight or tomorrow.

I have also been working on updating some of the ratings for every player on current NFL rosters so you can have a look at how some of your players are rated in comparison to the ratings provided by EA.

Please note that these ratings were current as of late March, so many ratings in the 40s are for players who were just getting off of injuries. Rookies will also be very low for now, but will rise during training camps.

Ummm...whenever I click the link in the first post it sends me to the old website that says ratings were stopped in 2007...can you point me in the right direction?

If you would have read my last post you would see that the site is down as we are moving to new servers. I don't have a timetable yet, but it should be up within a week.

The site should be up tonight guys. You will notice that I am now going team by team for the training camps. Right now AZ-CAR is complete along with GB. The rest will be filled out in the coming week. I will post again when the site is up so you all can check it out.

not to be a ***** but...how are you planning to handle the man-made draft classes by EA?

all the re-rating in the world won't mean anything if year #2 of someone's franchise has EA's 'inflated' ratings in the mix with yours

I am not planning on doing anything about it because there is nothing that can be done. The only thing that can happen is if the site garners enough attention that EA recognizes it and makes changes as a result. It was a lot easier back in the day of PC gaming where you could edit your own draft classes, but we are stuck with their draft classes for now...unless someone knows how to edit them.
