The roster update for Madden 10 may have been skipped last week but assurances have been made that there will be one out this week. Along with the first patch which is expected within the next few days and the AFL downloadable content coming on Thursday it will be an eventful week for Madden.

After the first few games one standout has been Jets CB Darrelle Revis who has shut down two of the best receivers in the league, Andre Johnson and Randy Moss, in consecutive weeks. His 91 overall should see an increase of at least five points. Drew Brees still seems destined for a 99 rating after now having tied the record for most TD passes after two games. Bengals DE Antwan Odom leads the league with seven sacks after racking up five in Sunday’s game against the Packers. Along with having given up four sacks to the Bears, the Packers have now allowed 10 sacks so a drop to their offensive line would be warranted. Mario Manningham appears to have stepped up to become the Giants #1 receiver and deserves a ratings increase to match.

Other transactions that will be made include Brian Urlacher, Jamal Williams, and Randy Thomas to the IR. The signings of free agents such as Jeff Garcia to the Eagles will also be reflected.

As with the ratings suggestions posting last week, leave your thoughts in the comments on what players are deserving of a boost or drop in their ratings based on early season performance.

    Bills increases:

    HB – F. Jackson – Needs a bretty substantial boost after his first 2 weeks filling in for the suspended Marshawn Lynch.

    QB – Trent Edwards – Currently the highest QB rating in the AFC, show him a tiny bit of love.

    O-line – The entire Bills offensive line has been outstanding, especcially concidering they have 3 players who havent started a game in the NFL until the monday night opener at New England.

    Why are so much guys on the game with Dreads that don't have dreads? Its ridiculous. A lot of the guys don't even have long hair at all. I don't understand it. You clearly see their Pictures and they have regular Short Cuts but they have them wearing dreads. C'mon EA get it together.

    Darelle Revis – CB – New York Jets. He has been a shutdown corner on two of the leagues best WR's
    Geno Hayes – OLB – Tampa Bay Buccaneers – This guy has been everywhere, he deserves a tackling, pursuit, and speed rating boost
    Cadillac Williams – RB – Tampa Bay Buccaneers- The return of Caddy was a great one, he deserves a +1 speed boost and increases to trucking and acceleration
    Fred Jackson – RB – Buffalo Bills. He has been absolutely phenomenal replacing Marshawn Lynch. He should get a overall boost to 85 rating.
    Cedric Benson – RB – Cincinatti Bengals. He deserves a 83 rating after his hard fought gains the past two weeks.
    Chris Johnson- RB- Tennessee Titans. What can I say? He has been amazing.
    Byron Leftwich- QB – Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Awarness increase along with throw power
    Joe Flacco- QB- Baltimore Ravens. Increase in awarness and deep accuracy
    M. Manningham- WR – New York Giants. Deserves a ratings boost after Sunday Nights performance against the Cowboys
    Aqib Talib- CB- Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He has been playing very well against two really great receivers in Terrell Owens and Roy Williams. His awareness and man coverage ratings should be increased
    Elvis Dumervil- OLB- Denver Broncos. He should have an increase in acceleration, power moves, and finesse moves.
    Thomas Davis- OLB- Carolina Panthers. He has been absolutely everywhere, leading the league in tackles. Awarness, tackle, play recognition, and pursuit boosts.

    Micheal Oher and Jared Gaither should be in the low 90 high 80's. Fabian washington should be at least an 80. Ray Rice should be faster along with mcgahee.Both tavares gooden and antwan barnes is faster than boss bailey.Ed Reed should be a 94 speed cause he has more Int td's that troy polamalu is his career. Plus Qb's throw is rto troy's side more thatn they do Reed. Make reed zone coverage a 99.

    Fred Jackson + a lot.

  • Tommy

    I think charles woodson needs to be at about 94-96, 11 tackles(4 for a loss) 2 pics and a td against the bengals. Grant down, Collins down, Most of the o-line down, but Driver needs to be bumped up a point or 2, hes very good but hes in the shadow of greg jennings

    USA TODAY looks at five players who may be primed for breakthrough seasons:

    Quote:
    G JAHRI EVANS, NEW ORLEANS SAINTS

    • Background: Made steady climb after being fourth-round draft choice from Division II Bloomsburg State. Fell in draft because teams were concerned about his ability to handle higher a level of competition.

    • Breakthrough potential: Evans (6-4, 318), in fourth season, may be ready to secure elusive Pro Bowl berth, especially if high-powered Saints keep marching. Has it all, including rare agility for his size.

    • What they're saying: "I think Jahri is a guy that's going to play in a lot of Pro Bowls before his career is over." —Saints coach Sean Payton
    http://www.usatoday.com/sports/footb…harticle_N…

    Saints o-line is severely underrated and has been for quite some time. You aren't the #1 #3 #1 and current #1 offense 4 years running with a bad o-line. Thank you have a nice day

    Colts
    Jerraud Powers has taken over the #2 corner spot and should be rated at least higher than Tim Jennings who is a 63 (Powers should at least be in the 67-72 range). He had a solid game 1 but missed the Miami game due to groin issues and Jennings got killed by Ginn.

    Pierre Garcon should be higher than a 65 also from that game winning TD catch he had his spd should be higher than the 87 he has. At least a 90 he ran away from the Dolphins 2ndary.

    Dallas Clark needs a rte run and spd boost.

    Donald Brown needs to have a higher spd and brk tak than Joe Addai.

    Playaction needs to actually work in this game vs. zone coverage so you can take advantage of Mannings 99 play act rating.

    Charlie Johnson needs a boost at LT. He played a brilliant game vs. Joey Peezy Porter and Jason Taylor. His 78 ovr is way too low he's atleast an 82 LT. His pass block footwork and run block strength need boosting.

    And get Roy Hall off the Colts. He was cut early in the preseason and is still on the roster.
