The ratings of the top five quarterbacks in Madden 16 have been released. Aaaron Rodgers comes in at the top (and possibly the highest rated player overall) at 99. Tom Brady (97), Drew Brees (95), Ben Roethlisberger (95) and Andrew Luck (94) round out the top five. Here is the full breakdown via the Madden 16 website:
AARON RODGERS (99 OVR)
GREEN BAY PACKERS
6’2, 225 POUNDS
The NFL MVP is excellent at many things. Between his 95 Throw Power, 98 Play Action, and 88 Throw on the Run, Rodgers can beat you in or out of the pocket. He’s awfully accurate, too. His 80 TAD is tops in the league, and he also boasts 94 TAS/92 TAM.
TOM BRADY (97 OVR)
NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS
6’4, 225 POUNDS
Brady claims league-best marks with 96 TAS and 97 TAM. Brady threads the needle with 94 Throw Power, but lay off the deep ball with his 70 TAD.
DREW BREES (95 OVR)
NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
6’0, 209 POUNDS
Even without All-Pro Tight End Jimmy Graham, it’s tough to bet against Brees. He starts 2015 with 93 TAS/91 TAM/79 TAD, and also adds 87 Throw Power and 93 Play Action.
BEN ROETHLISBERGER (95 OVR)
PITTSBURGH STEELERS
6’5, 241 POUNDS
Big Ben is tops among all QBs with 85 Strength and 95 Throw on the Run, which makes him tough to bring down. He adds 94 Throw Power to 87 TAS/90 TAM/73 TAD, and deceives with 92 Play Action.
ANDREW LUCK (94 OVR)
INDIANAPOLIS COLTS
6’4, 240 POUNDS
Luck boasts the same league-high 95 Throw on the Run as Big Ben, with comparable accuracy at 88 TAS/89 TAM/75 TAD. He also features 95 Throw Power and 92 Play Action.

What do you guys think? I wonder how far Peyton Manning dropped? Where is Tony Romo (92? 93?)?
Also, its interesting that we still have 99 OVR rated players but they dropped the overall speed ratings. For me, I think if you are going to keep a 0-99 ratings scale, then you have to allow that for all position attributes (and overalls). How is it that Tom Brady has a 97 and 96 throw accuracy but Jamaal Charles is only a 92 speed? Is Brady really that much more accurate the Charles is fast?
I guess we will learn more when we see the wide receivers and cornerbacks speed ratings. It is just hard to draw a realistic parallel when early on it does not appear the number value on the ratings means the same for each attribute.
What say you Madden Nation?
