NFC East Team and Player Ratings Revealed in Madden NFL 10 Season Preview

Philadelphia Eagles|NFC East Rated 88
The Eagles have had arguably the best off-season of any team in football after beefing up the offensive line with LT Jason Peters (95 OVR/98 RBS/97RBF) and Stacy Andrews (87 OVR); they then traded for CB Ellis Hobbs (83 OVR) to bolster the secondary after losing Lito Shepherd to the Jets...not to mention the brand new weapons QB Donovon McNabb (90 OVR) has to play with in rookies WR Jeremy Maclin (78 OVR/96 SPD) and RB LeSean McCoy (75 OVR/92 SPD/91 ELUS). Philadelphia has one of the strongest offenses in Madden NFL 10 this year, ranking 6th in QB, 3rd at RB, 4th in OL, and 15th at WR. The only sore spot on the offensive side of the ball is at TE (ranked 30th), currently Brent Celek (73 OVR) and rookie Cornelius Ingram (63 OVR/84 SPD) are the best the Eagles have at that position. Almost forget to mention studs like Brian Westbrook (94 OVR) and DeSean Jackson (81 OVR/95 SPD/95 ELUS) - Points will not be hard to come by in Madden NFL 10 when you play with Philly...On defense, the biggest loss will be Brian Dawkins at Safety who left for Denver. Filling in for Dawkins will be Quintin Mikell (83 OVR) and former Cleveland Brown Sean Jones (80 OVR). Better not throw on the Eagles unless you have to, they check in with the #1 ranked CB unit in the NFL with ballhawk Asante Samuel (95 OVR), Sheldon Brown (87 OVR), Hobbs, and Joselio Hanson (75 OVR). Helping out this top ranked secondary is the 12th ranked DL unit in football, led by Trent Cole (91 OVR/96 FIN) and DTs Brodrick Bunkley and Mike Patterson. The biggest weakness on defense is at LB. The Eagles have the 31st ranked LB unit in Madden NFL 10 with MLB Stewart Bradley (77 OVR/86 TAK) leading a young and upcoming group.
