I didn't really see a forum section for this kind of thing, or I missed it.
But I'm sure some here are fans of the franchise and the full AFC East Rosters have been released:
Video Games - Madden 12 Ratings for the New England Patriots - ESPN
Some ratings are surprising to me, like our WR/TE's seem low. The secondary looks great and I have a feeling it might get better with roster updates every week.
Running back's are about what I expected, small improvements every week I'd say.
Can't argue with the QB's obviously and the line looks solid.
Defense Overall looks very good, and will only get better with the first roster update.
Tips for those who don't play the franchise all that seriously:
When you are looking at your DE's on the depth chart, take notice of your outside linebackers, oftentimes a low to mid 70's or 80's OLB can get a 10-15 point increase playing DE. Cunningham for example, looks like a second string OLB (will be 1st string once they remove TBC w/ first roster update) at the moment, with a 75 overall, will probably have ~85-90 overall if you move him to DE (which he'll probably be this season anyways if the defense does indeed take a 4-3 form). Might be an important move to make once Warren and Stroud are removed from the Depth Chart. Guyton will also probably be mid 80's at end.
Moving to DT rarely has the same effect but with VW and AH we obviously won't need DT help.
