Madden 10 Roster Update #8 Details
by 
The eighth roster update for Madden 10 is set to be out later today or tomorrow. After taking a week off this is a significant update in terms of ratings and player movement.
Some notable changes include Matt Schaub boosted to 88, Terrell Owens down to an 85, Cedric Benson gains three and moves to 89, Sidney Rice gets moved up to an 82, Elvis Dumervil all the way to an 89, Brandon Mebane to an 86, and Jarius Byrd up to a 78. Mark Sanchez dropped to a 78 despite his impressive hot dog eating skills while JaMarcus Russell somehow only lost one point and sits at 67.
Once again the changes have been presented in image form. Continue on to check them out and leave your thoughts in the comments.

October 30, 2009 at 3:26 pm
Couldn't have said it better amen !!!! Everybody hates to love the broncos !!!!!! Best D in years!!!!

Intelilligent use of vocabulary in this post. How about next time instead of whining you simply lay the facts out and let the info speak for itself instead of cursing and yelling. I really wish Pasta would just delete the rediculous comments like this one and leave the forum for people who wish to discuss and comment rather than spouting garbage and insulting everyone looking through these comments.

THIS IS STUPID!!!!
i love how chargers keeps going down and philip rivers doesnt go up. Philip Rivers averages 3 touchdowns a game and nothing. LT or darren shouldnt be going down cause the shitty linemans are the reasons. CHARGERS LINE- PASS BLOCKING UP! AND RUN BLOCKING DOWN. on defence everyone should be going down. but offece their the only reason why we still win games.
October 29, 2009 at 9:16 pm
u beeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaatchs take thwse increases and decreases in players way to fucking serious
October 30, 2009 at 4:25 am
Hey there folks unlike 3/4 of Madden players out there who uses other teams than the one that they actually pull for I realize that the Madden team really do a good job for the most part with the ratings system. I know that there are some teams that almost upset their over Rated opponents and had um by the Balls (cough Miami!) Its easy to say who should go up an who should go down but if your team didn't win we can't blame the madden team for not boosting every one who should. So we just gotta hope that your team plays well and your favorite players have great games. Other wise we cant blame no one but your team when they dont win the REAL GAME. Keep up the good work E.A. P.s Make it fiar accross the board and stop Dick riding your own personal fav teams. Peace!!!
October 30, 2009 at 4:50 am
What about Joe Flaco he should have got a least 2 more points…………………..
October 30, 2009 at 4:51 am
Didn't see Clinton Hart getting released by Chargers on there… Is he off the Chargers in the game?
October 30, 2009 at 4:07 pm
LOL, when he was on the team it sure didnt seem like it by the way he played. The guy was the worst safety on the team.
October 30, 2009 at 4:53 am
As of right now, who is the starting Patriots RB? As if Morris is healthy I am speaking. Morris,Mauroney or Taylor. (I know Taylor is out now but I'm just saying if all three were healthy right now.) Also who lines up as the FB for the Patriots when the run the I-formation and goalline. Can anyone please tell me who knows out there????
I'd appreciate it a lot. Thanks.
October 30, 2009 at 11:51 am
Anyone?!
October 30, 2009 at 4:55 am
man honestly some of you guys are the biggest babies. "why doesnt this guy get boosted why doesnt my team get better ratings. stop complaining and realize that there is probably a reason they dont get rated any higher or lower. let the guy do his job and stop complaining or do what the other half of what you people think is the solution and stop playing the game. plain pure and simple. stop being babies.
October 30, 2009 at 3:59 pm
amen
October 30, 2009 at 5:00 pm
only because you said so.
October 30, 2009 at 6:05 am
Ratings don't even matter! Here's proof

October 30, 2009 at 4:06 pm
THERE ARE NO 99 SPEED PLAYERS IN FOOTBALL. That is like saying he is as fast as Usain Bolt. He is more than fast enough in the game as is. And he isnt so fast that guys cant cover him. Too many players are still too fast in madden. Sorry but even without his pads on DeSean still doesnt have 99 speed.
October 30, 2009 at 10:26 am
Aqib talib, Tarnard Jackson, and sammy stroughter should go up some for the bucs. Also the pic for styles white, he is now a starter and clifton smith pic is def not him. Also maurice stovall is not a 75 on speed if you ever see him on special teams he is def a 80 at least.
October 30, 2009 at 11:08 am
wow ur kiddin me cardinals beat the giants… and get no love? mcfadden should at least be 82 the cardinals line is so f'n backwards. Gandy is horrible and is the best o lineman? wtf??! seriouslY!
October 30, 2009 at 11:29 am
devin thomas should go higher up in the 'skins depth chart… hes gonna play a lot this season
October 30, 2009 at 12:24 pm
Downloaded new roster today and started an offline franchise. It seems that now the career records don't work for recieving yards and receptions. Anyone else notice this problem? I went back and reset the roster to see if it was always like this and the records work fine with the original roster.
October 30, 2009 at 2:55 pm
please post when the rosters drop.
October 30, 2009 at 2:58 pm
Per Donny Moore's twiitter, the rosters are live.
October 30, 2009 at 4:00 pm
Acting like women.
October 30, 2009 at 4:20 pm
Im getting pretty sick of the "F- you"s and other disrepectful comments that people show to others in their posts. Please do somthing about this pasta.
October 30, 2009 at 4:59 pm
I have not seen that here, it mostly happens in the nba live vs 2k 10 post. i think everbody here has a favorite team or player that they would like to see a ratings boost or missing players needed. i say the madden post are usually free of the bs.
October 30, 2009 at 4:30 pm
EAGLES ratings that didnt show in this details!
TE B. Celek went up 1 point!
S Q. Mikell went up 1 point! speed is now 88..
LT J. Peters lost 2 points from 95-93!
QB M. Vick speed -1
im hoping DT Antonio Dixon will be on the next update..
October 30, 2009 at 5:47 pm
Zach Miller – 1600 career yards (3 years) – 370 yards in 2009 – 87 overall
Vernon Davis – 1487 career yards (4 years)- 355 yards in 2009 – 90 overall
+ Zach Miller is more complete TE with excelent blocking skills, and not a big WR like Davis
I think this rating are not fair, I think Davis is better because he was drafted as a top-10. Zach Miller has beeb an excellent player every year in his career and is a Pro Bowl caliber TE. He has been underrated
October 30, 2009 at 1:35 pm
HAHAHa YOU ARE THE DUMBEST PIECE EVER… WHAT HAS ZACH MILLER DONE THIS YEAR…. VD LEADS LEAGUE IN TD RECEPTIONS DUMB ASS. HE IS CONSIDERED THE BEST BLOCKING TE IN THE LEAGUE LOL YOUR A COMPLETE IDIOT.
October 31, 2009 at 10:02 am
What has Miller done this year? Miller has more yards than Davis in 2009 and is a better blocker, but not only this year he is better, he has been better every year in the league. The only reason Davis is better in Madden is because he was a top-10 drafted player. Davis is a good player, but Miller is better. He has been a very good blocker from day 1 and catches everything near him
Who consider Davis the best blocking TE in the NFL, you and how many more?
Try to get your head out of your asshole so you can see reality like it is and not like you want it to be.
October 30, 2009 at 6:24 pm
What's the deal the 49ers have a INT in EVERY GAME this year yet when I play Madden nobody on the team can catch shit!!!! What's the deal?!?!?
October 30, 2009 at 7:47 pm
Wow this guy is actually doing a good job at the roster updates… keep it up man
October 30, 2009 at 8:46 pm
this just in…EA has trouble acquiring NFL players pictures for Madden 10 because NFL players are so humble they do not want to be pictured in the game…
October 30, 2009 at 8:55 pm
one thing not noted for the 49ers….. WR BRANDON JONES.. our fastest reciever, got a SPD boost to a 91 from an 87… well deserving… he is returning punts now maybe…. ALSO RB MICHAEL ROBINSON will be our kick returner for probally the rest of the season… it would be nice for him to have the KR abilities….. he has absolutly none….
October 31, 2009 at 10:09 am
Why Brandon Jones speed should go up and is well deserving?
Because of his zero catches?, because of his zero receiving yards?, because of his 12 yards per catch career average?, because his zero kick returns attemps? or because of his zero punt return attemps?
This guy can't get on the field. He just sucks
October 31, 2009 at 11:58 pm
He was injured dumb ass!!
November 1, 2009 at 7:35 pm
If injured, why he deserves the ratings up dumb-ass?
October 30, 2009 at 11:52 pm
theres alot of other changes to thats not on that list.
October 31, 2009 at 12:14 am
Shaun Phillips gets 2 sacks and drops 2 points? Not sure I understand the logic there…
October 31, 2009 at 3:24 am
phillip rivers is one of the best and needs to be rated that way, and what did sproles do to deserve a rating drop? if anything he needs a boost, he is currently leading the league in all-purpose yards
October 31, 2009 at 4:49 am
what happened to the 2nd patch for madden 10? anybody realize that it was announced on OCT 17th and its almost november 1st.
October 30, 2009 at 10:24 pm
I’m a die hard Raider fan from the Bay Area who now lives right outside of Denver and I HATE the Broncos, but even I think the Broncos need a defensive boost. Elvis Dumervile definately deserved that boost after the lack of increase the last few weeks. Alphonse Smith has been on fire all year and has played very well in the Nickle, and Andre’ Goodman needs to be in the 80’s at least. And did anyone see Renaldo Hill catch Darrius Heyward-Bey from behind a few weeks ago? I think Hill needs a speed increase from his 83 to more like a 89-91 range.
October 31, 2009 at 4:44 pm
I'm a giants fan too and I wonder why Steve Smith dropped. Top 3 in yards, catches, and touchdowns,. He is still too slow; there are linebackers faster than him. Eli throwing power is too low stll, but he needs to drop though. Jacobs had no business dropping he's 9th in rushing on his way to another 1,000 yards season. Corey Webster hasn't given up a touchdown yet in man coverage and is too slow 87 is too low. Tynes is too low too. He leads the league in points scored he's only missed 2 fieldgoals. His kicking power and accuracy is too low. That's about it Oh yeahs and Pierce awareness is way underrated. He's the QB of the defesnse and he's underrated on there as well.
October 31, 2009 at 5:42 pm
Shaun Phillips has 2 sacks and drops 2 OVR?
Darren Sproles has 151 total yards and a TD and drops 1 OVR?
Chargers win by 30 and get 1 upgrade and 5 downgrades? LOL!
EA Sports, home of the Charger Haters!
October 31, 2009 at 6:13 pm
Alot of the guys for the chargers started overrated. Just because they have one good game doesn't mean squat. What have those guys done all year.
Though rivers could use a slight bump.
October 31, 2009 at 5:49 pm
Why is Chester Taylor still the #1 KR with with Jaymar Johnson the #2. We're 8 weeks in know so how many kick returns for a touchdown does Percy Harvin need to have till EA moves him to the #1 KR spot.
October 31, 2009 at 6:51 pm
hey what happened to chris mcalister
October 31, 2009 at 8:53 pm
He disappeared just like Shaun Alexander and Marvin Harrison did in the last update.

Ratings don't matter…
November 1, 2009 at 12:03 am
why is there still no love for the vikings??? they're 6-1 with their only loss being against pittsburgh and they get 2 increases. The saints get 13 increases for fucks sake. Denver and Indy are both undefeated and they get 3 increases each. What makes the saints worthy of 13 increases when the broncos, colts and vikings get 8 combined?
November 1, 2009 at 3:01 am
The saints were HIGHLY underrated on madden. The vikings not so much. Go back and look at the default rosters and current rosters for both teams.
November 1, 2009 at 12:07 am
Just make the damn patch already. I want to start a franchise. EA….Yall Phuckin up!!
November 1, 2009 at 2:22 am
yo everyone check this new madden glitch out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMl5Zoj7eL8
November 1, 2009 at 3:03 am
That's NOT A GLITCH!
They purposely left that in there as a workaround for the medical team issue.
November 1, 2009 at 3:05 am
And colts were also NOT underrated.
The broncos could use some more increases though. No arguments there.
November 2, 2009 at 12:11 am
Wheres some patch information Pasta? I just really want to know how many weeks till we see it.
November 2, 2009 at 2:55 pm
why should steve smith drop when delhomme is terrible
November 15, 2009 at 7:34 am
