Madden 20 is set to release in August per usual, and today the first round pick of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Devin White had his overall released today. Much to the chagrin of White and the Buccaneers, his overall is set at a measly 74 overall, lower than third round wide receiver D.K. Metcalf and overrated running back Josh Jacobs.
Last year’s first round pick Vita Vea was set at a 79 overall at the start of his rookie year despite being selected in the seven positions later than White was a year later. Madden may be improving their game, including harder judging of rookies; after all, number one overall pick is set at a 73 overall to begin his madden career.
