Week 1 is in the books and Madden NFL 17 is taking notes. At the top end of the ratings there are two notable changes to big stars. Antonio Brown twerks his way up to a 98 OVR and Aaron Donald, the monster DT for the Rams will be going down one OVR to a 97.
Additionally, Matt Stafford as well as Cardinals running back David Johnson are each getting a bump of +2 to their OVR. Jimmy Garoppolo also received a bump of +2 to his OVR to move to a 74. If he has another big week, watch out!
Not everyone performed as expected, though. Moving down 3 OVR, Cowboys CB Orlando Scandrick drops to an 84 OVR. Going down two OVR points each are Tamba Hali and Kirk Cousins, though they’ll still be solid options as both are still in the 80’s.
This week’s roster update includes changes to player ratings, depth charts, and injuries for all 32 teams.
