Madden 10 Roster Update #4 Details
by 
After taking a week off the Madden 10 roster updates have returned with the fourth of the year which came out this morning. This update includes a slight upgrade for Darrelle Revis to 93, a 10 point upgrade to 85 for Antwan Odom, a five point decrease for Jake Delhomme, an11 point increase for Mario Manningham while Drew Brees has become a 99. Those were all players that I thought would see adjustments based on their performance early this season so it is encouraging to see that the ratings are being actively adjusted for the players that need it.
The update also includes several transactions and depth chart changes. Chief among them are Brian Urlacher, Jamal Williams, Randy Thomas, and Jermaine Phillips to the IR and the complete removal of Michael Crabtree from the 49ers as he has yet to sign.

Yeah thats crazy Antwan Odom has 5 sack game he goes up 10 pts Doom has 4 sack game goes up 4 pts.
September 25, 2009 at 11:17 pm
what is going on with ea not giving any respect to the D who has allowed the lowest points in the league thus far(Broncos), I believe Alphonso Smith 76ovr(should be a 78ovr), Brian Dawkins 88ovr(should be a 91ovr), Elvis Dumervil 74ovr(should be a 76ovr), Wesley Woodyard 54ovr(should be a 60 ovr), and Darcel Mccbath 76ovr(should be a 78ovr), all need some upgrades. Also Kyle Orton should get an uprade from his 73ovr to a 76 ovr here is my reason he has not thrown an interception! also Correll Buckhalter 78ovr should be a 82ovr like Moreno is. well thats it but they should have had something done.
September 26, 2009 at 6:26 am
It has to be said again, Warner set a PASS COMPLETION PERCENTAGE RECORD, AND YOU GUYS DROPPED HIS RATING?
What the hell?
September 25, 2009 at 11:30 pm
where is the addition to mario haggan for the broncos the dang guy is a captain for the team?
September 26, 2009 at 11:53 am
I swear the people at EA must be Steelers fans, Ravens get shited on when it comes to ratings every year. And the Steelers stay over rated, Im glad they got Gay Willie Parker right this year though. Keep up the great work EA, I love killing fake steelers fans with my underrated Ravens online.
p.s. Maybe during downtime after madden comes out the folks at EA should actually WATCH a football game, its very apperant that they do not.
September 26, 2009 at 1:49 pm
yep thats why finally after weeks of bitching and many one handed picks later troy finally moved from 35 in catching to 75. Still behind ed overrated reeds 82. YEs reed used both hands, so troys should be a 150. Maybe when the ravens can win a couple superbowls, and domintate year after year, they to can be overrated. UNfortunatly that isnt gonna happen, So I guess I can look forward to you bitching like all the seahawks fans for years to come. Goodday
September 26, 2009 at 1:44 pm
Some of the ratings changes are insane. I hope the ratings are based on game film and not just game stats. Don't think Warner should of gone down and I also don't think Aqib Talib should be as low as 45. There should be no starting corners that low.
September 26, 2009 at 7:41 am
As a New York Giants fan I still don’t know how EA can lower Tom Brady and not Lower Tony Romo? Maybe someone can answer this for me?
September 26, 2009 at 4:35 pm
tom brady down? week 1 he was terrific…the O line should go down!
September 26, 2009 at 5:53 pm
No love for the bills outside of fred jackson….there O-line needs an increase and so does Edwards
September 26, 2009 at 6:04 pm
wow ATL Needs More respect , Mike Peterson had 2 interceptions why didnt he go up , actually ATL 's Defense should go up a bit more there pretty good right now come on . Chris Houston had and interceotion , Brian williams had a block punt
September 26, 2009 at 6:29 pm
just update the ratings for your teams yourself people! its not that hard
September 26, 2009 at 6:29 pm
I LOVE How everyone is saying EA must be a bunch of Cowboys Fans LMAO @ THAT!!! We didn't even get a SINGLE UPGRADE EXCEPT FOR JAY RATLIFF WHO HAS EARNED HIS CURRENT 91 RATING everything else has been a Downgrade hense Ken Hamlin down too an 82 from an 84. As for Romo The ONLY Cowboy that maybe should've went Down HE HAD A GREAT GAME (Career Highs) in week 1 and came out week 2 and had a Bad game, I've used Romo alot on this game and some games I'll throw 3 picks sometimes I'll throw 4 touchdowns my Point being it accurately Displays the True Romo at his Current Rating that's why they kept it there.
and RVG_Spear or whatever your Stupid Fucking Name is I HATE YOU I WANNA RIP YOUR DUMB IGNORANT EAGLES FAN FACE OF AND SKULL FUCK YOUR EYE OUT, I'M GROWING TIRED OF SEEING YOU STUPID AND UNETHICAL COMMENTS YOU POST ON THIS WEBSITE! I WILL FIND YOU AND I WILL DO AS POSTED ABOVE YOU STUPID FUCKING FAGIT EAGLES FAN!!! I FUCKING HATE YOU YOU FAGIT PUSSY FUCK!!!!
September 26, 2009 at 7:00 pm

September 26, 2009 at 7:00 pm
WHY DID THEY LOWER KELLEN WINSLOW'S CATCHING?!
HE HAD ONE DROP!
September 26, 2009 at 7:15 pm

September 26, 2009 at 8:10 pm

September 26, 2009 at 9:13 pm
Any one else notice Seneca Wallace got a upgrade he is now better than Vince Young, and may be better than Vick. Right on Wallace
September 26, 2009 at 2:30 pm
late the party but has anyone else noticed that Jim Leonard from the Jets KR is 0 lol
September 27, 2009 at 1:28 am
happy wit matt ryan up to an 87 and tony g to a 99 also kroy b to a mid 70 but maaa boy mike jenkins WR needs some love look at the stats hes havin agood season maybe his breakout
September 27, 2009 at 5:45 am
Eli Manning has grown tremendously as a player, just because he has not thrown 8 touchdowns does not mean he needs to be an inaccurate clutz in the game. I'm not pissed, I just can't play with my favorite team against other people because my QB is misrepresented by throwing interceptions every other play.
September 27, 2009 at 3:30 pm
Still think they need to raise troys catch to 85 like ed reed's. I am trying to recall how many left handed, or right handed interceptions he has had. I know if its high and a jump ball in center field he can get it, but not sure about the tight coverage, and anywhere on the field ones like troy. At least they finally moved it from 35. to 72.
September 27, 2009 at 9:02 pm
seahawks lime greens are live. wish i could see em in action, but i don't get that game.
http://prod.static.seahawks.clubs.nfl.com/assets/...
September 27, 2009 at 9:46 pm
Guys are getting bumped up and down based on one play sometimes. Seriously lowering McKelvin's return because of one fumble? Stupid.
September 27, 2009 at 5:45 pm
i think the niners deffence should be upgraded to a higher level based on the
past weeks nfl games and hills ratings also should go up a little with only one interception for 3 games so far seems to be good enoff to have some what of a better rating.
September 28, 2009 at 3:02 am
the rating system suckz this year!!!!!!!!!!
September 28, 2009 at 8:37 am
who is the best offenisve tackle in the NFL??? hmmm well ill tell you its Ryan Clady 6″6 320lb+ whos only gave up .5 sacks in his first 19 games!!!!!!! One more game without a sack he sets a recorded you think you boys over at Ea would be up on this kind of information conisdering Madden make the most stupid money! Maybe you guys should make a rating department or something the last couple of years Ea just hates on the Teams that dont play night games! Ryan Clady is just a huge example of how Ea has the head up there ass!!!! p.s. nothing makes me happier than a raiders beat down and richard seymor who?
September 28, 2009 at 5:22 pm
Mike Wallace of the Steelers should get an upgrade he is catching everything!!!!!
September 29, 2009 at 5:49 am
cowboys run game upgrade 2 games with 200 plus yards
