Is there are reason slower irl players get faster cards in MUT?
I just think it's rather disrespectful to players like Champ Bailey, who held the record for 40 time at the combine for many years.
He also had a season (2006) where he allowed only 4 catches on 35 targets for the year with 10 ints.
In no world was Ty Law faster or a better player than Champ Bailey, except for EA's imaginary world where the Pats fan devs actually believe they make a good game.
I think it’s a means of maintaining the game environment and its progression while keeping some competitive balance. Champ with 92 speed when he dropped on Oct 16th or 17th? would have been disruptive. A Ty law this past Saturday with 90 speed wouldn’t have convinced anyone to buy a pack.
I agree. I would like to see stats and gameplay that more accurately reflects the real world. As long as we are sticking with calling it a simulation football game.
Last year Caleb Jones (6'9" and 370lbs) was 99 speed. Not sure the combine analogy ever holds up...
If you are looking for realistic ratings you are playing the wrong mode lmao. Ty Law is faster because he came out after Champ. That's how progression works. If everything was realistic we'd have 99 speed Randy Moss in August. Thinking of it that way makes zero sense
This is MUT, the release date of the card is the biggest factor on their ratings. The Tyreek we got a few months ago is a lot slower than the recent DEs.
Everyone here is spot on, Champ was just released too early

None of the attributes are 100% realistic. EA starts low and slowly upgrades to keep people buying and chasing after better cards.
Champ was released before Ty in the game. That is why Ty has slightly better stats. To get everyone to go out and spend money to upgrade and have the best team in this game. The next CB in whatever upcoming promotion will probably be a hair faster and have slightly better covering ability, even if it was not the case in real life....that is how this game is structured.
Be grateful it’s like this and not how it used to be. In MUT 13, there were players with 98 speed at launch
92 OVR vs. 90 OVR
You are all falling for the trap.

Wow. That would be great!
I am someone who would prefer everyone be ranked at their best throughout their history of playing in the NFL....And not start with a 68 OVR team and have several releases of the same player with a bunch of different attributes.

Does franchise let us create a team using all of the best players throughout the history of the NFL?
If it does, I would be interested.
