Madden 09: Quarterbacks

The return of all-time greats to the Madden franchise will finally allow us to see how the Bradys, Mannings, and (gulp) the Grossmans of today compare with players who defined the position. You can even check out how close the rookies are to becoming NFL ready. Who got inflated ratings and who got the shaft? Let us know what you think!

The list below largely speaks for itself but we will point out a few of the surprises. The first has to be Brady's arm strength (99). His arm strength is now the highest of any player in the game, active or otherwise. Another year of Michael Vick behind bars has resulted in a Vince Young repeat as the fastest quarterback in the game (though Tarvaris Jackson and newcomer Josh Johnson gave him a run for his money).

Check back in over the next few weeks as SportsGamer will be breaking down ratings for every position culminating with the release of the full Madden playbooks. Also be sure to stop by our forums and share your opinions on the quarterback rankings or leave us specific requests and we'll try to get the answers!
