Each year, EA Sports releases the ratings of the new rookies ahead of the game’s official release, and each year, teams' fanbases get caught up in where their newest players fall in the rankings. Here are the top 10 rookies in this year's game:

You might notice that 10th overall pick, Colston Loveland of the Chicago Bears, is not on this top 10 list. Not only is he not in this top ten, but he isn't even the Bears’ top-rated rookie this season.
- Luther Burden III - 76
- Colston Loveland - 73
- Shemar Turner - 72
- Kyle Monangai - 71
- Ozzy Trapilo - 71
- Zah Frazier - 70
