Agreed, I've never met a more biased homer in my life!! I think Lechler should be the highest rated punter. Don't forget about Koch too!

I think Alex smith needs the clutch trait now and throws balls away. Also aldon smith need the high motor trait to yes.

What about Gronk and Hernandez. Gronk went from 84 to 96 tied for best TE and probably will be 98 on this new update after 3 TDs last week. Hernandez was around 80 and know hes a 88 and probably a 91 this week, after his running and receiving skills get a boost from him doing both last week against Denver.

Jordy Nelson is an 89? That just seems way to high. From all the plays I have seem him make, seems like a 1 catch per game guy with that catch being 60+ yards and for a TD. 89 seems way too high, should be more like a 83.

Jordy Nelson	68	1,263	18.6	93	15
Greg Jennings	67	949	14.2	79	9
Jermichael Finley	55	767	13.9	41	8

thats why hes rated a 89

Mind you, this is coming from a 49er fan, but Andy Lee is definitely in the same league as Lechler. Both deserve to be in the high 90s. If I had to say one outperformed the other this year, it's Lee. Only punter with an average of 50 yards per punt this year, and he also got more inside the 20 than Lechler.

What about Navorro Bowman & Ray McDonald on the 49ers? I can imagine that they must've been huge movers this season, and if they weren't, Madden wasn't paying attention. My copy of Madden is coming in the mail still, so I'll check then. I think Bowman is currently a high 80s overall? I assume he started lower than that. (And if I had my say, he would be in the 90s after outperforming Willis. I'd put McDonald in the high 80s at least as well).

Torrey Smith 69 --> 78. Only a bump of 9, but he plays like a beast, at least for me. Seems to always break at least one tackle, and catch (particularly in traffic) better than he actually does. Oh, and he goes up to an 86 after one year, 92 after two, can go up or down from there depending how you do in the third season (I've seen him go up to 95 and down to 90). Also they make him a 98 rated returner, I'm not sure how accurately that correlates to real life I don't think he had any returns at all this year IRL.
