Madden 24 ratings: Top 5 players in NFC East at each position
- NFC East Madden 24 ratings at each position
- Dak Prescott closing in on top-five of QBs
- Cowboys score multiple wins on defense
By Jerry Trotta
Running backs
- Saquon Barkley, Giants (93)
- Tony Pollard, Cowboys (88)
- D’Andre Swift, Eagles (81)
- Brian Robinson Jr., Commanders (79)
- Rashaad Penny, Eagles (79)
This order shouldn’t surprise anyone. Barkley was the lifeblood of the Giants offense last season, which makes it all the more shocking they lowballed him during negotiations. He’s not expected to report to training camp and has threatened to extend his holdout into the regular season.
Pollard ranked tied for eighth at the position after his breakout 2022, while Swift's 81 overall is warranted after an injury-plagued year. It's a bit surprising Brian Robinson is a 79 overall after he averaged 3.9 yards per carry as a rookie, while Penny's promising 2022 ended after five games due to injury.
Wide Receivers
- Terry McLaurin, Commanders (92)
- A.J. Brown, Eagles (91)
- CeeDee Lamb, Cowboys (90)
- DeVonta Smith, Eagles (87)
- Brandin Cooks, Cowboys (83)
This might cause some contention.
While McLaurin and Brown are top-10 talents, it's hard to stomach Lamb being the third-best receiver in the division. It's essentially splitting hairs as very little separates the WRs, but it's still shocking Lamb fell outside the top-10 after he was one of six players at the position to be named an All-Pro last year.
