Christian McCaffrey tops the RB spot this year despite dropping two rating points. He still has the top speed rating shared with Dalvin Cook at 92. McCaffrey also has the highest agility at 97, followed by Saquon Barkley at 96. The highest Break Tackle rating is Nick Chubb with a 98 rating, followed by Dalvin Cook at 96 and Derrick Henry at 95.

Individual move stats can also be important for RBs. The ability to pull off jukes, trucks, spins, and stiff arms are determined by these ratings. The highest truck rating is held by Josh Jacobs at 92. Derrick Henry has the highest stiff-arm rating at a whopping 99, which comes at no surprise. McCaffrey holds the highest spin move rating at 91, Alvin Kamara and Dalvin Cook are tied at 94 with the highest juke move rating.

Madden seems to be a little harsh on RBs this year, but the updated gameplay may give the RBs a little edge with dynamic controls and deeper change-of-direction mechanics. Ratings are adjusted throughout the year, so it will be interesting what changes happen based on season performance.
