EA Sports is releasing their Madden 26 ratings this week — here is how the Miami Dolphins rookies will play in this year’s game!
Madden NFL 26 is ready to officially release on August 14th, which means it’s that time of the year for EA Sports to reveal their latest set of player ratings.
I’ll break down the offensive and defensive ratings once Miami’s roster is complete, but for now, I want to focus on the Dolphins’ 2025 draft class. As I’ve said in the past, these ratings really don’t mean anything. After all, EA updates the rosters nearly every week in-season, which sees an array of roster changes throughout each NFL week.
It’s also just a video game, and yet, every year, diehard fans – and sometimes players – gripe about their favorite team’s player ratings. This year will be no different, but one player you won’t hear any gripes from me about is Miami’s first-round pick, Kenneth Grant, who is one of the top-rated rookies in this year’s game.
Earlier this week, EA Sports released the ratings of all the players from the 2025 NFL Draft class, but focused primarily on the top-10 rookies in this year’s game, which, to the surprise of no one, had Miami’s 13th overall pick, Kenneth Grant, among the top-10 rookies in this year’s game. But how does he rank among his peers? I’m glad you asked.
Here are the top 10 rookies in Madden 26.
Kenneth Grant | Defensive Tackle | 78 Overall
Jonah Savaiinaea | Right Guard | 73 Overall
Jordan Phillips | Defensive Tackle | 71 Overall
Ollie Gordon II | Running Back | 71 Overall
Jason Marshall Jr. | Cornerback | 69 Overall
