This past week, the folks at EA Sports steadily unveiled this year’s player ratings for Madden 24, as the game is now three weeks away from its August 15 release date. Player ratings are always a source of debate, but they do provide at least a decent look at each team’s strengths and weaknesses, with the understanding that preseason ratings can never account for any major leaps players could potentially make in an offseason.
As the New Orleans Saints enter the 2023 season, they’ll be looking at a wide open division thinking they have a very good chance to snap a two-year playoff drought. Derek Carr (78 OVR) comes to town looking to capitalize on a fresh start after almost a decade with the Raiders, and has some real weapons to enjoy in New Orleans. Chris Olave (84 OVR) broke out last year and Michael Thomas (84 OVR) is back, while Alvin Kamara (86 OVR) will miss the start of the season on a suspension but will eventually give Carr a dynamic pass-catcher out of the backfield. On defense, there are some stalwarts like Cam Jordan (87 OVR), Demarrio Davis (90 OVR), Tyrann Mathieu (91 OVR), and Marshon Lattimore (90 OVR) throughout all three levels, but success on that end will be dependent on how the others fill the gaps between them.
