Madden 15 Best Players At Every Position

Every year we get asked who the best players at each position are.  Most people understand that the best players in Madden 15 aren’t simply the highest rated.  They are usually pretty highly rated but have other important things like a good speed rating or above average height.  Below we have compiled a list of the best players  at each position (not in any particular order) for Madden NFL 15.  This is by no means an exhaustive list but it is a pretty good starting point.

This list applies to Madden NFL 15 on the PlayStation 3, XBOX 360, PlayStation 4, and XBOX One.

If you think we left anyone out or if you have a problem with someone that is on the list that you think shouldn’t be, leave a comment below.

Why is Manziel even on this list while guys like Brees or Roethlisberger are left off?

I’m a brees fan but his deep throw is weak and the game doesn’t do a good job portraying his pocket presence.

Best linebackers? Yeah let’s leave out the inaugural winner of the deacon award, which is given to the sack leader. Also one of the best defensive players over the last 10 years. Robert Mathis.

I’ll take kick power over anything cause i can kick a 63 yard fg with an kicker with a rating 9 4 or 96 with an 70 accuracy. So kick power is theonly thing..

madden-school, get your facts right!! Robbie Gould have a 96 KPW on Madden 15! Don’t believe me, check EA Sports yourself.

Where is Vontae Davis, the cornerback for the Colts? He should be rated as a top 5 cornerback in the game as he is a top 5 cornerback in real life.

I wouldn’t replace one guy on that list for that dude. Remember he got cut by the dolphins? I mean come on. You have to have a few GREAT seasons to be considered top 5. And Vince wilfork? Haha. He is so old. It’s a young mans league

Mike Wallace still deserves to be on that list, so does Brent Grimes and Danelle Ellerby. And yes….I’m a Fins fan

And I have a problem with Manziel being on the list. Just goes to show the influence of media hype. Just another rookie until he shows otherwise

I think you should put Vontaze Burfict (Most tackles in NFL since he has been in the League, shoulda won Defensive Rookie of the Year, and would have if he started the first couple weeks his first year for the Bengals) on there under linebackers.. I also think Michael Johnson needs to be considered a top DE. Best Defensive Linemen Available in Free Agency doesn’t make the list? 🙁
