Takeaways from 49ers’ overall ratings in ‘Madden 21’

The 49ers have some really good players on Madden 21, but the ratings sold some of their key players short.

Tight ends

George Kittle: 98
Ross Dwelley: 65
Charlie Woerner: 63
Daniel Helm: 57
Kyle Nelson: 32

The top-heavy TE group in ‘Madden’ reflects the real-life situation for the 49ers. Kittle is the best player in the league at his position, but the depth behind him from a pass-catching perspective isn’t great. Long snapper Kyle Nelson is better than a 32 rating at snapping, but he gets rated as a TE.

Offensive line

Trent Williams: 92
Mike McGlinchey: 85
Weston Richburg: 79
Laken Tomlinson: 75
Ben Garland: 68
Tom Compton: 67
Justin Skule: 65
Daniel Brunskill: 62
Colton McKivitz: 61
Kofi Amichia: 59
Shon Coleman: 59
Jake Brendel: 56
Leonard Wester: 54
Jaryd Jones-Smith: 53

The 49ers’ offensive line depth is probably better than the game gives them credit for. Coleman was in line to snag the swing tackle job had he stayed healthy last year, and Brunskill might wind up getting the starting right guard spot.
