Trade Value

overall 106.44 × star 1.35 × age 24 1.04 × HB 0.75 × contract 0.91

An overpay: $8.3M against the $6.5M a player this good usually costs. 4 years left, which is what gives it weight.

This league's own model, not Madden's — EA publishes no trade value. It prices the contract as well as the player, because a team trading for him takes the number on too. How it works.

Going rate drawn from same position, any rating, what is paid from same position, ±5 OVR. Each group widens until it holds at least five players, so a small count means this profile is rare in the league and the figure deserves less weight. Annual value is total salary plus bonus over the length of the deal — not the cap hit, which Madden back-loads.

  • Vol. 2, Issue 10 · Three teams are still unbeaten through ten weeks, De'Von Achane runs for 248 yards and four touchdowns, and a Buccaneers tight end delivers the two touchdowns that hold off Cleveland.
  • Vol. 2, Issue 9 · A rookie quarterback ends Washington's perfect season, Green Bay and Denver both push to 9-0, and a kicker in Los Angeles breaks a record that has stood since the league's first season.
  • Vol. 2, Issue 8 · Green Bay and Denver both push to 8-0, Cincinnati and Washington join them at 7-0, and San Francisco's perfect season ends in New York as the league's unbeaten group narrows to exactly four.
  • Vol. 2, Issue 7 · Two teams are still perfect after seven weeks, a fourth team joins the winless column, and Washington's quarterback still hasn't thrown a single interception.
  • Vol. 2, Issue 5 · Five teams still perfect, two shutouts on the same afternoon, and a running back in Chicago nobody could bring down.
