Madden 16: 10 Overrated Players Who Need Downgrading

5. Matt Forte - 95

Matt Forte had a stellar 2013 campaign and EA responded with an immediate boost for the Chicago Bears star. But after tallying up the 12th highest rushing yard total in the league this year, is he really the fourth best running back in the entire NFL? Doubtful. Madden 15 ranks Adrian Peterson, LeSean McCoy and Jamaal Charles ahead of Forte, with none other than the mighty Marshawn Lynch sitting in fifth place. That's not even taking into consideration the likes of DeMarco Murray and Le'Veon Bell who topped the charts in 2014. Forte is obviously a great player in a poor team, but 93 seems a fair rating, though his receiving stats were very impressive last time around.
