Madden NFL 20 Ratings & Top Rated QB, HB, WR
Hey Madden fans!
For years, my Play Now team selection process in Madden has been to take the best OVR team of three randomizations, with the caveat that my buddy on the couch next to me has to have landed an OVR within three points via the same process. Once we match up, kickoff is imminent. And the Madden NFL 20 release is imminent too, available worldwide on August 2, 2019.
We’ve already released the rookie ratings, unveiled the 99 Club, and now it’s finally time to reveal the full suite of NFL team ratings. Let the debate begin!
HIGHEST-RATED OVR TEAM
Philadelphia Eagles | 89 OVR
HIGHEST-RATED OFFENSE
New Orleans Saints | 92 Offense
HIGHEST-RATED DEFENSE(S)
Chicago Bears | 88 Defense
Houston Texans | 88 Defense

As NFL teams ready up for training camp, see which quarterbacks are tops at their position according to Madden.

For some quarterbacks, a top-five rating in Madden is the result of years of proven and consistent success on the NFL field. For others, like Patrick Mahomes, it took just one off-the-charts season to skyrocket to the top of his position in terms of Madden 20 ratings. Plus, he’s the cover athlete, so that helps. Either way, with the introduction of Superstar X-Factors in Madden 20, the QB position will never be the same. Without further ado, here are your top-five rated quarterbacks in Madden NFL 20.

As NFL teams ready up for training camp, see which running backs are tops at their position according to Madden.

The HB position in Madden is unique. The running backs you are and are not successful with really depends on your playstyle. There are power backs for the truck-stick masters, elusive backs better for stick-work specialists, and receiving backs that are almost like an extra WR out of the backfield. But to be considered a top-five rated HB in Madden, a player must be versatile, with a well-rounded skillset that separates them from the pack. And with Superstar X-Factors in Madden 20, there are a select few at the position that will rise to that challenge. So let’s get into the top-five rated running backs in Madden NFL 20.
