 This is the week of the receiver for Madden NFL 13 with EA Sports today revealing the top 10 rated pass catchers. Come Friday the ratings for all receivers including tight ends will be released. Cover athlete Calvin Johnson pulls down the coveted 99 overall rating while Larry Fitzgerald, Andre Johnson, and Rob Gronkowski trail close behind at 97 overall. Early next week will focus on defense with all the remaining players and positions coming out at the end of the week. There is also the opportunity to vote on which player, out of the designated top three, should be the highest rated in a particular category. Today the rating for WRs is “speed” with Mike Wallace, Devin Hester, and Devery Henderson in the competition to get the nod. Vote here on which you think is deserving of being the fastest receiver. 01 Calvin Johnson – 99 02 Rob Gronkowski – 97 03 Larry Fitzgerald – 97 04 Andre Johnson – 97 05 Vernon Davis – 95 06 Jimmy Graham – 95 07 Steve Smith – 95 08 Wes Welker – 95 09 Roddy White – 94 10 Hakeem Nicks – 94 |

Based on last year, Nicks should be no lower than 4th, 96 overall or so. And for those doubting that, he tied Fitz's playoff series for most yards, nfl record. And keep in mind, he hurt his shoulder in the nfc title game and played less than 1/2 the game.
Nicks is better than 3/4 of that list.

Well, if you base it just on stats, then Welker should be the 2nd best receiver.

Scratch my original post ... this list is out of order. It's nothing more than a pop contest.

Like, how does AJ make the 4th slot ... when he was hurt due to a groin/hamstring injury last season. If this list is based on potential, then sure.
HOWEVER, it does say .. pass catchers. :/

Total TE package Gronk > Graham. I agree 100% yea Gronk will have to prove himself again this year but the guy is a freak of nature. With that being said I will gladly trade graham for gronk in fantasy this year just throwing it out there |
