Two big transactions took place in the NFL today that will have an impact on the season and on Madden 10. Braylon Edwards has been traded from the Browns to the Jets and Michael Crabtree has finally been signed by the 49ers.

Edwards, who made the Pro Bowl in 2007, has been slumping ever since. Dropped passes have been his main problem but he has also been dealing with a lack of talent around him especially at QB. He becomes the Jets highest rated WR at an 85 which is one point above Jerricho Cotchery. Crabtree started as an 84 in Madden before being removed from the roster. His rating should be moved down into the 70s due to missing training camp, preseason, four games of the regular season, and all the practices in between.

Considering the magnitude of these two developments it seems likely they will be included in this week’s roster update but that has not yet been confirmed. Leave your thoughts in the comments on what you think these moves will mean for the teams and for Madden 10!

    49ers OC says that in college Crabtree ran 2 routes: hitch and go. Hopes to eventually make him into a quality X but they'll start by playing him in the slot.

    It's going to be ugly for quite awhile. I'd be amazed to see him play this year. Pretty obvious from his actions that he could care less as long as he gets paid.

    Edwards rating should drop he is the leader in drops in the past 2 years is he not ?
  • Crabtree should go down a couple points.

    drop crabtree he's a scum bag

    I fully dont expect Crabtree to have anyimpact this year. He is mostly going to spend the season catching up and playing on the scout team in practice. It will be good work for him and his ego could sure use a little work too. But I like what singletary has done out there and I am hoping they keep improving. They still need a legit QB but that could take a few seasons. Maybe next year Crabtree. Maybe next year

  • Rel
    Umm, Limas is still on the team and Redman is back to the practice squad.

    I agree on Kemo and a SLIGHT inrease for mendenhall in regards to speed, he is faster than people think.

    Ward needs a slight increase.

    Roethlisberger needs a major increase in short and medium accuracy though.
  • Shawn
    Yeah, and downgrade everybody else

    Cotchery should get a raiting of 85 and Edwards 83
    Crabtree should be a 80
  • Ganggreen
    The Jets are looking good ...not so much for the division though Patriots are going downhill (oh how I hate the patriots), bills choking at every given chance, dolphins ??, and Mangini might as well hand over Joe Thomas now...as for people playing with the Jets all the time now we can consider that as respect from people because our team is so good...so play away buds but just know cross MR_NIKE_7 on psn and i probably will hand ya the buisness with the Jets...have a good day.

  • ogkush007
    He should've never been an 84 to begin with
  • Zcore
    Crabtree will not be in the low to mid 70's he will be around a 82 to 84. Edwards will be 84, the same as Cotchery..watch on Friday you will see
  • Zcore
    Both Crabtree & Edwards will both be in the latest Roster Update come this Friday Oct 9th garanteed.
  • i still don't kown about crabtree.
  • Pasta! How's your online franchise coming along?

    Mo Diddley the inquisitive mind!
  • Tommy
    Mo Diddley the ass kisser!
  • Ravens coaching does suck all u got is a head coach, there is more to coaching then a head coach.

    J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS!!!
  • Chris
    if people strt using the jets now the same reason y everyone used the pats 2 years ago just because of braylon ur an idiot... im a die hard jets fan and honestly i dont want no idiots using my team to throw 70 yard bombs to edwards just so he can jump all over everybody... if ur gunna use the jets make sure u use them because u want to not just so u can throw bombs... just dont be gay about it like ppl were with the pats!!! J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS!!!
  • 5150
    dont worry most people that play online are pussies and dont throw the ball more than 15 yards downfield
  • Ovr23
    It's not like Braylon is anywhere near Moss's level though. Hell Cotchery is only an inch or two shorter and has the same overall now (84).
  • ill admit i was kinda hopin crabtree wouldnt sign just to see wat happened with him in next years draft
  • MY BIGGEST GRIPE THUS FAR, ARE NOT THE PLAYERS' RATINGS, IT'S THE COACHING RATINGS. SUCH AS MY BMORE RAVENS ONLY GETTING ONE SPECK IN THE COACHING CATEGORY. I UNDERSTAND THAT WE LOST OLD REXY, BUT DAMN THE HEAD COACH IS STILL IN TACT, AND WENT 11-5 WITH 2 PLAYOFFS WINS LAST YEAR, WHILE STARTING THIS YEAR 3-1 WHICH SHOULD BE 4-0 IF NOT FOR THE LEAGUE BEING PATSYS FOR THE PATS.
  • knowitall
    amen brotha I just dont understand why the league sucks the Pats nuts!
  • Adrian
    when will they put crabtree in the madden update
  • 5150
    in the next update if that makes sense
    there are no stupid questions, just stupid people LOL
  • funbob
    I always thought the term 'wideout' was more applicable to guys like Edwards. You need to catch the ball to be classified as a receiver. If the Jets were looking for a physically gifted problem child wideout with questionable hands and potential legal trouble they should've made a move for Marshall when he was trying to pout his way outt've Denver.
  • crabtree needs to drop
    A he hasnt been to practice since mini camp
    B spread offense wide receivers normally dont do well in tell their 2nd season
  • knowitall
    in tell or until
