Dak Prescott, Cowboys – 86
We really shouldn’t be surprised that the QB of the Dallas Cowboys would get a very healthy bump in his rating for Madden 18 after last year. The Cowboys are “America’s Team” and Dak Prescott, their leader, had a fantastic rookie season. That said, all the way up to an 86 after just one season? A season where he had a TREMENDOUS amount of help from arguably one of the best offensive lines in the NFL and the leading rusher, Ezekiel Elliot.
An 86 puts Prescott just three points lower than a more established young talent such as Derrick Carr, and only one point behind proven veteran Matthew Stafford. Listen, I get it, Prescott was awesome in his first year, but can we at least wait to see him play another season before throwing him in among the best in the league?
