Jonathan Ogden had a 99 rating for several years, back when he was in his prime.

If I remember properly, those were all pre 2006? could be wrong though. Either way I don't think anybody should be rated 99. That goes for any position. The best two or three players in the ENTIRE league should be 97 or 98 tops and other than that maybe have a handful of players or so over 90. That would make the game play out more realistically, and also, probably have each players strengths and weaknesses stand out MUCH more than this current system, where every player plays like a juggernaut.

In my opinion, ONLY the elite tier players, i.e. Manning, Calvin, AP, Brady, Rodgers, etc, should be 90+. The second tier players should be 80-89, and the middle of the pack starters should be in the 65-79 range. Madden currently puts at least 5-10 players at 90+ at each position, which is absurd.

Exactly, how he doesnt make the list baffles me...

I believe Walter Jones was a 99 in Madden 07, the other two were 99s from 01-06? or something.

I think Ogden was 05 and Pace was 03 or 04.

The only thing that bothers me is they grouped the lineman together as one group. Which would explain Ryan Clady missing from that list, as he would be a top five LT if they broke it down by position.

To be honest though, it would be nice to see them group the Tackles together, have the Guards/Centers together. Then when you go to sign them to a contract, you would choose his position he would play, which would add strategy since that player may be offered to play RT with you, but he could play LT for another team and get more money since Left Tackles, get paid more.
