Electronic Arts has released their launch ratings for every NFL rookie in “Madden NFL 20.”

Keep in mind these are just the ratings to start the NFL season and the developers have a system by which they assign these ratings. These aren’t meant as fan service or to make players happy right away. The goal is that they’ll adjust ratings to reflect growth accordingly during the NFL season.

The last several seasons haven’t been great for Chiefs rookies in Madden NFL. Not having a first-round draft pick for two consecutive seasons has hurt the ratings. Even when Patrick Mahomes was drafted, he didn’t start fpr the Chiefs. That was reflected in his rating early on.

Now the latest batch of Chiefs rookies get to see their ratings and I guarantee you they won’t be happy about them.

WR Mecole Hardman

At least they’re respecting Hardman’s speed by giving him a 95 OVR, that’s a pretty good number for a rookie. Tyreek Hill’s speed was not that high during his rookie season.

Interestingly enough, Hollywood Brown is the only receiver with a higher speed rating than Hardman. Brown didn’t run a 40-yard dash during the pre-draft process due to injury, but was expected to be the fastest player in the class.

S Juan Thornhill

Thornhill only managed a 69 overall rating, but they did respect his 44-inch vertical jump from the combine. They awarded him with 95 overall jumping, which is quite good for a rookie.

DT Khalen Saunders

I’m not sure which specific rating reflects a 320 pound defensive tackles ability to do a backflip, but I guarantee you that it isn’t high enough for Saunders.

Other rookies have the following overall ratings:

65 overall

P Jack Fox

RB Darwin Thompson

63 overall

WR Jamal Custis

RB Boobie Williams

62 overall

CB Rashad Fenton

59 overall

CB Mark Fields

58 overall

C Nick Allegretti

57 overall

LB Gary Johnson

52 overall

QB Kyle Shurmur

You can check out the rest of the Chiefs’ rookie ratings in full here. They have two players on the list, Boobie Williams and Gary Johnson, that the Chiefs have already released. Perhaps we’ll get a few new rookie UDFA’s in there at the start of the season.
