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.

Tyron Smith allows one sack all season, doesn’t make the list…….seems legit ????
Why are guys like Clay Matthews, Robert Mathis, Drew Brees, Tyron Smith, Jared Allen, and plenty of others, left off the lists even though they are better than those on the lists? And don’t say bc they weren’t as good last year or bc they are older. (D. Ware, T. Polamalu, C. Johnson are on the lists and refute that statement)
Evan Mathis & Jason Peters belong on best OL list. Best left side in Madden.
Maybe throw Jason Kelce in there too. The Eagles have easily the best line in the NFL, I don’t know how none of their O-linemen got on the list.
What about Barkevious Mingo as a linebacker? In M25, he was a beast after a half-season in any Franchise League. Tall, fast, and young… all the physical tools to be great.
Antonio Brown. Y he isn’t on the list
Dri Archer will be one of the most electrifying rookies in madden this year
Dwight Freeney should be on the LB list.
and with the new passing mechanics Manziel may not be as effective as everyone thinks, but, that remains to be seen.
Clay Matthews is better than several of the linebackers on the list. If he was left off due to injury, I can live with that, but he should be there based on talent.
Also, if kick power is all that matters in Madden, why on earth did you leave off Mason Crosby?
This has to be random picks because you don’t even have Bree’s on here and he’s top 4
Where is nick foles
What about Charles Johnson and Greg Hardy???? And yes I am a Panthers fan….
