Madden 22 evaluations Top 10 tenderfoots and the top players in new groups

These brand new Legends items will release with Ultimate Team on Monday, the 29th of November as part the promotion Mut 22 coins. Other recent promotions that have launched in Madden have included a Thanksgiving-themed promotion with Blitz as well as Team of the Week which comes out every week.

Based on our model and the latest set of data2 released on Madden's website Madden website, it was possible to identify a handful of players with whom Madden and a more model-based approach seem to be at odds and the results are interesting.

Injecting human judgment into a system of grading isn't always a bad thing. Daniel Sorensen is a good example. He's had a disastrous season at the Kansas City Chiefs, and He's a factor in their defense's loss of 69.5 points over expected this season, which ranks 31st in the league. Sorensen's performance has earned an average coverage score in the range of 42.2 in 100 by Pro Football Focus and an overall score of 35.5.

In spite of his struggles, Sorensen is still extremely fast! Based on his speed on the field as determined by player tracking data, we'd anticipate to see a speed score purely based on model for Sorensen of 89 or so, nearly 7 points more than Madden's week 9 grade of 82. Maybe the people at EA would rather not reward a player who is struggling as badly as Sorensen with a high mark in a vital area like speed score, as it's such a significant influence on gameplay. If this is the case then it's difficult to fault them.

Other notable exceptions include Chiefs Wide receiver Tyreek Hill, who holds the highest speed score in the entire game of Madden at 99. Hill is certainly fast, and perhaps we're splitting our hairs however his maximum career speed of 22.8 mph ranks only fourth place on the list since 2017.3 In addition, his current weekly average speed of 22.8 mph although very impressive buy mut coins, isn't even close to his 50th place in the league.
