Madden NFL 25 will be available worldwide on August 16, with early access starting on August 13 for those who pre-ordered the game. With the full ratings of Packers' players now revealed, what can we take away from them?

Jordan Love is rated 81 overall in Madden NFL 25, which is low. He finished second in passing touchdowns and seventh in passing yards. Love also led all quarterbacks in big-time throws against the blitz and ranked among the top four QBs in big-time throws under pressure, tying with Josh Allen and trailing only MVP Lamar Jackson and Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes. Notably, Love was PFF's highest-graded quarterback from Week 12 until the postseason. Despite being tied with CJ Stroud for the 14th highest quarterback rating, it's arguable that there aren't thirteen quarterbacks better than him. Meanwhile, Michael Pratt is rated 59 and Sean Clifford 58, which was a surprise for some Green Bay fans. 

Josh Jacobs is the seventh highest-graded running back in Madden NFL 25. Despite coming off his worst statistical year, it's fair to cut him some slack since the Las Vegas Raiders' offense was nearly nonexistent last year. With instability at quarterback, most teams loaded the box against him, leading the Raiders to a bottom-six rushing unit. A.J. Dillon is rated 78, and Lloyd is 73, which is reasonable. Emanuel Wilson is a 63. Overall, it feels like a fair projection for the running back room.

Not a single Packers receiver achieved an 80+ rating, which feels wrong. Jayden Reed broke the Packers' rookie record for receptions and had the third most receiving yards by a rookie in Green Bay history, the most since 1978. Romeo Doubs led the Packers in targets, tied with Jayden Reed for receiving touchdowns, and was a top-10 wideout in contested catches. The last time we saw a healthy Christian Watson, he torched the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs and NFC finalist Detroit Lions, totaling 12 catches for 165 yards and 3 touchdowns. Dontayvion Wicks ranked among the top three rookie receivers in first downs per route run versus receiving yards per game. Moreover, out of 118 ranked receivers, he was the best at being charted as open vs. man coverage. Furthermore, Bo Melton is rated 73, and Malik Heath is rated 66.

Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft come in at 73 and 69 ratings, respectively. Musgrave missed some time last year, but if he stays healthy, they both can help each other on the field. Personally, Kraft should be at least a 70; he was a reliable weapon for Jordan Love last year and a good blocker in the running game. Ben Sims and Tyler Davis are rated 62 and 60 overall, respectively. It's a fair projection for the tight ends, but it feels like Kraft could have gotten more recognition.

Elgton Jenkins and Zach Tom are the only two Packers offensive linemen to reach an 80+ overall, which makes sense as they are the two best linemen on the team by a good margin. Last season, Jenkins allowed 0 sacks in 544 pass-blocking snaps. Additionally, Tom allowed only 9 quarterback pressures over 125 pass-blocking snaps against T.J. Watt, Aidan Hutchinson, and Cameron Jordan. Among 19 offensive tackles with at least 650 pass-blocking snaps last year, Tom allowed the second fewest sacks and QB hits and the fifth fewest pressures. Rasheed Walker is rated 76, and besides Trent Williams, he had the best tackle pass-block win rate last year. Jordan Morgan is rated 74, and Josh Myers 72. This could be the starting offensive line for Week 1 in Brazil.

Royce Newman is rated 70, Andre Dillard and Rhyan are both 69, Jacob Monk is 65, Donovan Jennings and YTravis are 64, Kadeem Telfort and Luke Tenuta are 61, Caleb Jones is 60, and Lecitus Smith is 59. Most of these players will be backups, so there isn't too much to get upset about, although it's quite surprising to see Royce Newman reach 70.

On the defensive line, Kenny Clark and Rashan Gary reached 85+ overall ratings. An 85 feels low for Gary, but EA probably wants to see more consistency from him—7.5 of his 9 total sacks in 2023 came in three games. Preston Smith is a 79, which perfectly reflects his role for Green Bay: He may not stand out every week, but he remains a reliable defender. Van Ness and Wyatt are rated 74, and the rest of the group reached 70 at best. Special mention to Karl Brooks, who is rated 68, which is absolutely low. He had 4 batted passes last year, the 4th most among all defensive linemen in the league, and was a top-five rookie defensive lineman in pressures, QB hits, sacks, and hurries.

Quay Walker and Edgerrin Cooper will be the starting linebackers in the 4-2-5 defense. Walker is rated 79, while Cooper is rated 73. Green Bay's third-round pick, Ty'Ron Hooper, is rated 69, alongside Isaiah McDuffie and Eric Wilson. Kristian Welch is rated 63. This is a very athletic group, and Jeff Hafley will let them be aggressive. This unit has one of the biggest potentials to achieve a higher overall rating by the end of 2024.

Jaire Alexander is by far the highest-rated cornerback on the team, with a rating of 93. Eric Stokes, the second highest, is rated 76. Keisean Nixon is rated 73, while Carrington Valentine and Corey Ballentine are both rated 71. Robert Rochell is rated 69 and Kalen King 65. King has significant potential to become a steal for the Packers. Moreover, Valentine is another name to watch; playing alongside Jaire Alexander and Xavier McKinney will likely aid his development and could lead to a rating boost by the end of the year.

Javon Bullard will likely start at safety alongside Xavier McKinney, who is rated 85—a low rating considering his top-five ranking in overall defensive grade and tackling last year among safeties with at least 100 snaps. McKinney also led the NFL in coverage grade and played 100% of defensive snaps for the New York Giants. Additionally, rookies Evan Williams and Kitan Oladapo are rated 69 and 67, respectively. Anthony Johnson Jr. is rated 66, Tyler Coyle and Zayne Anderson are rated 62, and Benny Sapp III is rated 60. Williams and Oladapo could significantly develop by learning from one of the best safeties in the league and will likely have opportunities for playing time on defense this year.

On special teams, Greg Joseph and Anders Carlson are rated 73 and 69, respectively. Joseph has a lead over Carlson after two weeks of training camp, although it's plausible Green Bay will not move on from Carlson so soon. Daniel Whelan is rated 70 and has had no competition for his job in the offseason.

Jaire Alexander is the only Packers player rated above 90. Additionally, I’d expect players like Jordan Love, Zach Tom, Xavier McKinney, and all of the Packers wide receivers to receive upgrades throughout the year.
