After identifying the players who saw their ratings improve the most last season in "Madden NFL 17," we now look at those who regressed the most.

Players tend to have the ability to move up in ratings at a faster rate than they fall, given that they receive some benefit of the doubt based on past performance and factors outside their control.

Receivers, for example, rarely fall heavily in ratings as blame for decreased production may be placed on poor quarterbacking or play-calling.
