Madden 22: Rookie ratings predictions for Round 1 of the NFL Draft

Picks 6-10

Jaylen Waddle – WR – Miami Dolphins (No. 6)

Tons of speed and Tyreek Hill-like ability, and will provide an explosive weapon for Tua. But can he stay healthy? Prediction: 76 OVR

Penei Sewell – OT – Detroit Lions (No. 7)

Might be the most sure thing in the draft, with best odds to become a pro bowler and hall of famer. He’s given up only one sack in over 1,300 snaps. Prediction: 84 OVR

Jaycee Horn – CB – Carolina Panthers (No. 8)

An explosive athlete who could shut down number one wide receivers with his aggressiveness, but still needs to be coached up a bit. Prediction: 77 OVR

Patrick Surtain II – CB – Denver Broncos (No. 9)

Though I fully expected a QB here, Surtain will fit into the Denver defense nicely. He’s the most polished corner in this draft and can cover anyone, but there are concerns over his change of direction. Prediction: 79 OVR

DeVonta Smith – WR – Philadelphia Eagles (No. 10)

The reigning Heisman Trophy winner lit up the National Title game. He might be the best route runner in the draft, but the 6’1″ receiver is only 166 pounds. Can he hold up in the NFL? Prediction: 75 OVR
