Today we get the Top 5 OLB ratings from EA continuing their daily release schedule. The Broncos Von Miller and the Chiefs Justin Houston lead the way at 97 overall followed by Terrell Suggs (93), Dont'a Hightower (93) and Deandre Levy (93). Check below for the full release.
VON MILLER (97 OVR)
DENVER BRONCOS LOLB
6’3, 258 POUNDS
Miller returned to form last season with 14 sacks. He grades out as the game’s best outside linebacker with 93 BKS/99 FNM/89 PWM. He also brings 94 Tackle and 98 Pursuit.
JUSTIN HOUSTON (97 OVR)
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS LOLB
6’3, 258 POUNDS
Houston signed the biggest contract for a linebacker in NFL history after posting 22 sacks in 2014. He earns it in Madden NFL 16 with 97 Pursuit, 92 Tackle, 88 Play Recognition, and 93 BKS/98 PWM/89 FNM.
TERRELL SUGGS (93 OVR)
BALTIMORE RAVENS ROLB
6’3, 260 POUNDS
Suggs is heavy for a linebacker, and his 91 Strength is tops for OLBs. He brings a 97 Power Move (one of the best), 92 Tackle, and 95 Pursuit to get into the backfield.
DONT’A HIGHTOWER (93 OVR)
NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS ROLB
6’3, 270 POUNDS
Hightower is an every-down linebacker, and he’s one of the best with 86 Zone Coverage. Add 95 Tackle, 90 Hit Power, and 92 Pursuit, and he’s ready for anything.
DEANDRE LEVY (93 OVR)
DETROIT LIONS ROLB
6’2, 235 POUNDS
Levy’s still waiting for his first Pro Bowl appearance, but he’s already turned plenty of heads around the league. He starts with 95 Play Recognition, and adds 96 Tackle and 96 Pursuit.
----------
The Ravens are well represented here having another LB at 93 OVR. The Chiefs Houston drops from his 99 OVR at the end of last year to 97. Von Miller should continue to be a dominant edge rusher as well. Any surprises here? No Lavonte David after coming in at like 97 last year wasn't he? Who else is missing? I wonder how much the new speed ratings play a role as well...
