Madden NFL 12 Player Ratings - Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Redskins

[khadeemw]

Jason Avant needs a higher catching rating maybe a 90 or 91. Asante Samuel's agility is still overrated. I know hes fluid in his motion, but not 99 fluid. I think Madden is trying to overcompensate for his lack of speed, by exagerrating his agility. I would make his agility a 94, speed a 90, and his acceleration a 93. I would put his catching at a 85 and his zone coverage a 99. He's also not great in man coverage so the 94 man rating his boosted. London Fletcher's acceleration should be 90. He's not the fastest guy, but he gets to his top speed quickly. Lastly, every area of athletic attributes for Fred Davis should be higher than Chris Cooley. Not only is he faster, but hes quicker, and more agile.

This is a common misconception because he always plays off coverage. Asante still mainly plays man to man and excels at it. He played a lot more zone in New England than he does here in Philly.

He just doesn't do press which makes people think he doesn't do well in man coverage, which is not true at all. People think zone when they hear off coverage, but it merely has to do with how close he lines up to the receiver. He uses his great instincts to try and cut off routes but 90% of the time he is sticking with his man throughout the play.

His ratings are fine. As Deon Sanders says, "Asante Samuel is the best off coverage corner in the league".

I was camp yesterday as well, saw that play up close. Asante doesn't look good in one on one drills. Most CBs don't, it favors the WR. Asante stayed with him at first but give DeSean enough time and he will break away with his speed.

On a side story about training camp... I try to go to camp at least once or twice per year. I've never been fortunate enough to get a ticket for the autograph tent. This was my third time at training camp this year and I finally got a winning ticket. Not only that but I was lucky enough to be one of the few that got a ticket for the DeSean line. Not only that but I was wearing my brand new authentic DeSean Jackson jersey for the first time ever. So I got it signed, great day.

Awesome congrats!

Donny Moore rated Alex Henery backwards. He's incredibly accurate, with a moderately powerful leg. He can, and has, hit from beyond 50, but he's not nearly as accurate as he is from within 50. His KPW should be more like 87-90 and KAC should be a 94, or so.

I think the Redskins are going to be tough in Madden '12.

Receivers:
- S. Moss - 96 speed
- A. Armstrong - 95 speed
- L. Hankerson - 92 speed
- B. Banks - 96 speed
- T. Austin - 93 speed
- D. Stallworth -94 speed

Defensive backs:
- L. Landry - 92 speed
- D. Hall -97 speed
- J. Wilson - 95 speed
- P. Buchanon - 96 speed

They have good speed overall. This Should be a fun year in Madden.
