With the global release of Madden NFL 26 approaching, a wave of new players will be joining the game to discover their favorite players.

As a classic sports video game, Madden NFL 26 offers more than just winning on the field, but another core element of its fun is collecting the best players with MUT 26 coins.

All players have been announced. If you're aiming to build an unbeatable team on the first release day, you'll need to know which players are the strongest. Below are the top ten players at each position.

Offensive Line Players

Offense is a bit more challenging than defense in Madden NFL 26, and offensive players are often the stars of the game. You can prioritize your Madden NFL 26 coins towards quarterbacks and wide receivers.

Defensive Line Players

The defense must adapt to the offense's actions, and every position plays a crucial role. If you're unsure where to start building your defense, consider investing in a cornerback with your NFL 26 coins. A cornerback who can effectively cover a wide receiver can negate many opposing plays.

The above are the top ten players at each position in Madden NFL 26, along with their ratings. Given similar OVRs, the difference between players is actually quite small. You also need to tailor your plays to each player's archetype and determine which players are most effective for you. Otherwise, you're just wasting your Madden 26 coins.

Madden NFL 26 will launch its early access trial on August 11th, but many players reported encountering issues accessing the game. We hope this issue will be fully resolved by August 14th.

The ratings for each team in the early access trial have been released. Unlike College Football 26's 130-plus teams, Madden NFL 26 only features 32 teams, but these 32 teams represent professionalism, enhanced skill, and more intense competition.

So, which teams are the highest-rated this year? Which teams excel on offense or defense? Which teams are worth rebuilding with your Madden NFL 26 coins?

Top 10 Teams

1. Baltimore Ravens - 93 OVR

Although Ravens are a relatively new team compared to many of the more established franchises, their solid management style complements the city of Baltimore. Baltimore once boasted a glorious history, and its fan base skewed towards the blue-collar crowd, characterized by a relentless, unyielding spirit. If I could use a celebrity to describe this team and its fans, I'd say it's Denzel Washington. “Fall down seven times, get up eight times," “keep moving forward, keep learning, keep pushing forward, never stop"—these are the best descriptions of the team and its people.

2. Philadelphia Eagles - 91 OVR

The team boasts a rich history, with numerous playoff appearances and their first Super Bowl title in 2018. Known for their stout defense and dynamic offense, Eagles are incredibly popular among Philadelphia fans and a vital part of the city's culture.

Philadelphia Eagles achieved a heartwarming revenge against Kansas City Chiefs this year, with a decisive victory. Jalen Hurts, Eagles' hardest-working quarterback, provided a powerful foundation for the team's strategy.

3. Kansas City Chiefs - 90 OVR

Although Kansas City Chiefs have drawn a little criticism both on and off the field, their power is undeniable. Despite being defeated by Eagles and losing some of their top players, they still hold the third-place ranking.

4. Buffalo Bills - 89 OVR

Buffalo Bills narrowly lost to Kansas City Chiefs this year. They are a strong team on both offense and defense, but their core player, quarterback Josh Allen, seemed to struggle throughout the 2025 season.

5. Minnesota Vikings - 88 OVR

Ranking fifth overall is a challenge for Minnesota Vikings. Despite their strong 2024 season, they replaced their quarterback with rookie J.J. McCarthy. Consequently, their offense received a relatively low rating. Whether they can maintain this position remains to be seen.

6. Detroit Lions - 88 OVR

Despite their ups and downs, Detroit Lions have always been a highly competitive team, consistently meeting the expectations of their fans. Their offensive prowess is incredibly ferocious, which is one reason their players are often injured.

They lost some key players this year, which may have a negative impact on the team's strength. If you like this team, you can use Madden 26 coins to rebuild it or collect players from it.

7. Houston Texans - 87 OVR

Houston Texans are a relatively young team in National Football League (NFL), founded in 2002.

Despite their youth, they have already established themselves as a contender in NFL. They had a strong offseason. Despite the departure of left tackle Laremy Tunsil, they remain the favorites to win AFC South.

8. Denver Broncos - 87 OVR

Denver Broncos, founded in 1960, belong to AFC West division. They have a stellar record, winning back-to-back Super Bowl titles in 1997 and 1998 under the leadership of legendary quarterback Aldridge. Aldridge's status in football rivals that of basketball legend Michael Jordan, and he was named MVP of Super Bowl XXXIII.

But they are now clearly far from their peak. They are struggling to rebuild and have just made it back to the playoffs. You can take over this team and use MUT 26 coins to train the team, recruit players, and see how long it takes to get them back to the top.

9. Pittsburgh Steelers - 86 OVR

Steelers will have new offensive coach Arthur Smith (formerly Atlanta Falcons' head coach) in charge of reshaping their offense for the 2024 season. They've signed several key players, and these changes may make Pittsburgh Steelers more competitive.

10. San Francisco 49ers - 86 OVR

San Francisco 49ers missed the playoffs in 2024 due to injuries to key players. Despite a poor season, NFL26 still ranked them 10th, clearly believing they can rebound this year.

11- 32 Teams

• Tampa Bay Buccaneers - 85 OVR
• Washington Commanders - 85 OVR
• Dallas Cowboys - 85 OVR
• Cincinnati Bengals - 85 OVR
• New England Patriots - 84 OVR

• Tennessee Titans - 77 OVR

• Bunt: 35
• Drag Bunt: 25

Dave Parker was inducted into Hall of Fame in 2025, but the venerable Pirates right fielder also passed away on June 28, 2025. He’s a powerful hitter, but his defense is also unmatched.

99 OVR Hall Of Fame CC Sabathia

• BB/9: 100
• HR/9: 90

CC Sabathia, a 2025 Hall of Fame start pitcher for Yankees, has virtually no weaknesses in his statistical profile. He’s the second-best starting pitcher in MLB 25 and is untradeable. The current top-ranked starter is Ubaldo Jiménez, also from Yankees, but you’ll need 100,000 MLB The Show 25 stubs to acquire him.

Wide receivers are a group of people who specialize in catching the ball on a team. They are usually the fastest on a team and have a wide range of stature. Some are over 1.9 meters tall and some are just over 1.7 meters short. Usually short wide receivers use their excellent speed and route running ability to get short yardage, while big wide receivers generally perform deep strikes. Use height and speed to force the opponent’s corner to get big yardage.

The necessary skills for wide receivers are excellent catching ability, speed and accurate route running, and the ability to get rid of defense. Wide receivers need to get rid of defenses through flexible running, change of direction, change of speed and other means. And like running backs, their running speed is also an important indicator to measure whether they can pass. So which wide receivers are the fastest among college students in College Football 26?

10. 83 OVR Kendrick Law Kentucky

• SPD: 97
• STR: 69
• AGI: 89
• ACC: 92
• AWR: 86
• INJ: 85
• TGH: 91
• STA: 88

Kendrick Law is 1.82 meters tall, which is not very tall among wide receivers. Kendrick Law previously played at the University of Alabama, and this year he transferred to Kentucky Wildcats. His catching skills are very sophisticated.

9. 74 OVR Tank Hawkins Florida

• SPD: 97
• STR: 46
• AGI: 94
• ACC: 96
• AWR: 71
• INJ: 82
• TGH: 76
• STA: 87

Tank Hawkins is 5 feet 10 inches tall and is a typical agile wide receiver. This body makes it easier for him to find loopholes in the tall defensive front line, and his sensitive turning and acceleration are also the key to his breakthrough defense.

8. 76 OVR Jaylen Mbakwe Alabama

• SPD: 97
• STR: 51
• AGI: 94
• ACC: 96
• AWR: 70
• INJ: 87
• TGH: 87
• STA: 90

Jaylen Mbakwe and Tank Hawkins are the same type of players. Although their speed and acceleration are basically the same, Jaylen Mbakwe is better in attributes such as stamina and toughness.

7. 75 OVR Dazmin James California

• SPD: 97
• STR: 64
• AGI: 93
• ACC: 97
• AWR: 74
• INJ: 76
• TGH: 83
• STA: 84

Dazmin James has slightly better acceleration than the previous players. Dazmin James did not play enough, which made him a little rusty in catching the ball, but his speed is impeccable. He has received invitations from several college track and field teams, but he finally chose football.

As long as you are willing to use College Football 26 coins to improve him, then he may improve his OVR to over than 80 next year.

6. 85 OVR Zachariah Branch Georgia

• SPD: 97
• STR: 53
• AGI: 98
• ACC: 98
• AWR: 83
• INJ: 84
• TGH: 75
• STA: 90

Zachariah Branch has amazing speed, and his sprint is even close to Bolt. Besides speed, Zachariah Branch is also very flexible in turning, which allows him to run more tricky routes.

He is still a freshman. If he is on your team, he will definitely become the best wide receiver in the second or third year.

5. 71 OVR Che Nwabuko Pittsburgh

• SPD: 98
• STR: 57
• AGI: 90
• ACC: 96
• AWR: 71
• INJ: 72
• TGH: 86
• STA: 92

Che Nwabuko has great speed, which is one of his most powerful weapons, but his turn is not as agile as Zachariah Branch. Che Nwabuko has announced his departure from Pittsburgh. Whether his next step will continue to return as a wide receiver or become a running back, we don’t know yet.

4. 73 OVR Jelani Watkins LSU

• SPD: 98
• STR: 47
• AGI: 93
• ACC: 98
• AWR: 65
• INJ: 75
• TGH: 87
• STA: 82

Jelani Watkins was selected by LSU as a four-star rookie last year. He was famous for his speed in high school. He won the state championship in the 200-meter race in his sophomore and junior years. His speed and acceleration are great, and his turning is also very sensitive. Although his rating is relatively low now, it is because he has played fewer games. Give him some time to train, and his potential will be released.

3. 82 OVR Nyck Harbor South Carolina

• SPD: 99
• STR: 79
• AGI: 92
• ACC: 97
• AWR: 79
• INJ: 91
• TGH: 88
• STA: 87

Nyck Harbo joins South Carolina in 2023. He is a very tall wide receiver. He is 6-foot-5, which means he can break through the opponent’s block.

His speed is 99 and his acceleration is 97, which is also one of his strongest weapons. They make Nyck Harbo unable to catch up after breaking out of the encirclement. He is now a sophomore, and as long as you are willing to use NCAA 26 coins to improve him, he can become the best wide receiver in South Carolina.

2. 86 OVR Barion Brown LSU

• SPD: 99
• STR: 49
• AGI: 93
• ACC: 98
• AWR: 87
• INJ: 88
• TGH: 85
• STA: 91

LSU uses speed as its trump card, and Barion Brown is another example. Barion Brown transferred to LSU in late 2024. This star receiver has incredible proficiency in catching skills, and his skills also provide him with strong mobility.

Considering the speed and skills, Barion Brown is undoubtedly the best wide receiver. But he is not a freshman, so he will not serve your team for too long. If you can use EA CFB 26 coins to improve Jelani Watkins, maybe he will become the next Barion Brown.

1. 76 OVR Jordan Anthony Arkansas

• SPD: 99
• STR: 43
• AGI: 95
• ACC: 99
• AWR: 77
• INJ: 84
• TGH: 84
• STA: 90

Jordan Anthony’s speed, acceleration and flexibility are undoubtedly good, but his catching skills are not outstanding and his strength is very weak, which may be the reason he is now a full-time track and field athlete.

The above are the top ten fastest wide receivers in College Football 26. If you plan to use running tactics, then you need such a wide receiver to cooperate with you. Barion Brown and Zachariah Branch are both very good candidates.

In the dynasty mode of College Football 26, there are 136 teams, and players can train one of them as a coach, compete with other teams and win all the way to the championship. The difficulty of this depends on the team you choose, because just like in real life, these 136 teams are not of the same level.

Teams are divided into different star levels according to strength and reputation in CFB 26. The higher the star level, the stronger the team is, and they are all strong contenders for the championship. The strength and reputation of low-star teams are not high, and the number of victories each season is very few.

However, it is not difficult to win with a high-star team. A comeback with a low-star team can show how high your game level and understanding of football are, and this method will get the most XP and CFB 26 coins rewards.

Low-Star Teams

If you are going to take on this challenge, then you have to see which teams are ranked the lowest. If you are not a crazy football fan, then you may not have heard of the following teams at all.

1 Star Teams

• 72 OVR: Georgia Southern
• 69 OVR: Arkansas State
• 69 OVR: Buffalo
• 69 OVR: Charlotte
• 69 OVR: FIU
• 69 OVR: Rice
• 68 OVR: Hawaii
• 67 OVR: Delaware
• 67 OVR: Jacksonville State
• 67 OVR: New Mexico
• 67 OVR: New Mexico State
• 66 OVR: Kennesaw State
• 65 OVR: Georgia State
• 65 OVR: Missouri State
• 64 OVR: Old Dominion
• 62 OVR: Ball State

0.5 Star Teams

• 64 OVR: Kent State
• 61 OVR: Akron

The conditions at the above schools are similar. Some schools may have one or two talented players, but the level of most of the players is quite amateur. If you want your start a little more easily, you can choose Georgia Southern.

First Year

After you confirm the team, the first year is crucial for you, and it can almost be said to determine your success or failure. The harsh reality for a one-star team is that they have no advantage in recruiting, so you must pin your hopes on your team and tactical arrangements.

Try To Win

Most of the players on a low-star team can be regarded as the team’s weaknesses. Compared with professional teams, they are full of loopholes, but you will not encounter strong teams in the first year. You need to use NCAA 26 coins to unlock tactical perks, and then combine several good players on your team to specify tactics, and strive to win as many games as possible in the first year.

You can actively choose to play against some teams. You should try to choose a worse team than yours as your opponent, such as Kent State or Ball State. There is nothing shameful about such a victory, and after all, you are also a weak team.

Recruiting Players

You need to make changes to your team as soon as possible, because the good players on your team may graduate before this season, so the team needs strong fresh blood.

Rookie players are also divided into different star levels. Five-star rookies are almost impossible to be interested in your team, even if you have defeated some weak teams. You can try your luck with a four-star rookie. If he is close to your school, he may consider your team. Otherwise, don’t expect too much. Three-star rookies are your major targets. They may be the backbone of your second season.

Your recruitment strategy is not entirely based on the star rating of the players. You also need to look at the personnel turnover on your team. If the offensive linemen who performed well on your team transferred to other schools, you must quickly fill this gap.

Coach Upgrade

As the team level increases, don’t forget to use coins to upgrade the coach’s skills. You can continue to invest in tactics. Your tactics should be adjusted according to the players you recruit. If your quarterback or cornerback is strong, you should adjust your tactics accordingly.

Second And Third Years

When you come to the second year, your team’s star rating will improve a little, which is not entirely a good thing. It means that you have to challenge stronger teams. However, since many of your team are freshmen, it is recommended that you still start with some weak teams to familiarize yourself with your team. Just give them some time, and they can perform better than your initial players.

By the third year, you have accumulated enough wins for the team, and it is time to recruit more four-star rookies for the team. Your team has enough appeal to these four-star rookies. After recruiting these powerful players, you can arrange tactics for them more freely.

Your team has freshmen and seniors. If their levels are similar, try to let the freshmen play more.

Five-Star Rookies

If you have successfully passed three seasons according to the above steps, then your team is at least three stars at this moment. At this time, you can allocate more of your EA CFB 26 coins to the recruitment part, and use more players to find five-star players every week, because your current team is attractive enough to them.

After you successfully recruit one or two five-star players, you will develop your tactics around them, and soon you will complete the counterattack from low stars to top stars.

Although the above content is simply to say, when you are playing, you must always pay attention to the data of each player and understand the strengths and weaknesses of your team. You can take some notes to help you remember this information, and as long as you are patient, you will achieve this goal.

College Football 26 is now officially online, and many players have already entered the game. So which team or player do you support the most in the game?

In such a game, using EA CFB 6 coins to collect players and build a dream team is one of the ultimate goals of many players. In short, players need to win.

With the anticipation of players and football fans around the world, EA College Football 26 was officially released on July 10th. Players can experience this new classic on both Xbox Series and PS5 platforms. At the same time, Season 1 was launched simultaneously.

One of the core modes in the game, Ultimate Team, also plays a very important role in this season, attracting many players to invest time and effort. So what are the important things you need to do in Ultimate Team in CFB 26 Season 1? This article will give you a detailed introduction and give relevant suggestions!

The Brief Introduction Of Ultimate Team

As one of the most core modes in the game, players can customize their dream team. As long as your choices and matches are correct, you can get your own personal team with the most powerful active players and legendary players in history!

Of course, there are some very important things you need to do when building your team. Next, we will specifically introduce these key points and what you need to do immediately!

CFB 26 Coins: The Core Of Powerful Ultimate Team

Ultimate Team usually includes more than one currency, but College Football 26 Coins are the most important one. Not only can you get top players in the auction house, but you can also use them to get player packs in the store. So if you want to build a strong team, you can't miss them!

If you participate in the early access, you can get a lot of EA CFB 26 Coins through Early Access Field Pass. The challenges of Field Pass are very simple, all based on football itself. You can complete these challenges in single-player mode or online to get coins and player packs. Of course, you can review the best playbook before the challenge.

Other Important Currencies

• Points: can be obtained through coins, and use them to get player packs or bundles.
• Training Points: obtained by selling players quickly, use them to upgrade your players, and also spend your points in the specific interface of the store to get player packs.
• Tropies: obtained by completing Season 1 Field Pass, can be used to obtain specific players in the store or for player upgrades.

Keep Completing Your Field Pass

There are a variety of Field Passes to choose from in NCAA 26, but they all essentially require you to complete different tasks and challenges to give you Field Pass XP. Each level up will give you a variety of rewards, including coins, players, and packs.

Of course, you need to be aware that Field Passes require you to complete specific goals to accumulate Field Pass XP, not just play the game. You can check your daily goals when you log in every day, and complete them to easily get 600 XP rewards.

In addition to daily tasks, players can also choose to complete weekly tasks or milestone challenges, which will also increase or decrease your Field Pass XP accumulation. If you want to maximize your pass rewards, then try not to miss these tasks!

Finally, there is a Login Field Pass. Log in 35 consecutive days within the specified time period of the pass and you will be rewarded with a 87 overall player. This will undoubtedly be a great help in the early stages of Season 1!

Another Tip: Solos

Playing Solos is an easy and quick way to accumulate Field Pass XP and earn rewards. Because this mode is a game where you play against robots, the difficulty is relatively simple, and the duration of each quarter is only three minutes.

Even if your team is weak at the beginning of Season 1, you can quickly win against robots. After winning five games and two playoff games, you will get a lot of XP accumulation and CUT 26 Coins rewards, which is a great way for players who are just starting out.

Summary Of Season 1 Ultimate Team

At the beginning of the season, quickly getting player packs and enough coins through Field Pass rewards is undoubtedly the most important thing you need to do, and there are many important details to consider. There may be more activities and tasks in Season 1. If there is the latest information, we will tell you as soon as possible and give you our professional advice!

The quarterback is a very important position in football. He is responsible for catching, passing, commanding and defending. It can be said that the quarterback is the brain on the court and a position for the stars.

Carson Beck led Georgia Bulldogs to the playoffs last year, and he may be a first-round pick in NFL draft this year.

Even though LSU Tigers didn’t make the playoffs, Garrett Nussmeier still plans to stay and continue to fight for this team. What team wouldn’t like such dedication and loyalty?

Garrett Nussmeier is a quarterback who is better at passing. His accurate short passes make it difficult for opponents to defend. He and Cade Klubnik are the quarterbacks that are most worth your investment with EA CFB 26 coins.

The top ten quarterbacks in College Football 26 are all very strong. You need to choose a strong core quarterback, just like installing a strong heart for your team.

As time comes to mid-2025, the latest work of College Football series, CFB 26, finally opened the early access entrance on July 7, and will be fully launched on the 10th, three days later.

According to the current game performance and related reviews, compared with 25, NCAA 26 not only corrects the shortcomings in the game, but also adds more new modes and content, further expanding the playability of the game.

It is for this reason that College Football 26 is likely to attract more new players, including those who have never played sports video simulation games.

If you are one of them, in addition to understanding the rules of the game, you should also choose the most suitable difficulty of CFB 26 for you, so as not to be hit the game motivation as a novice when playing the game.

Based on this, we will introduce you to the specific requirements of all difficulty settings in EA CFB 26, as well as the criteria for choosing the difficulty that suits you.

All Difficulty Levels And Their Content In CFB 26

If you’ve played MLB 25, you know that there are 10 difficulty levels in this sports game! Fortunately, CFB 26 is not that complicated, with only 4 difficulty levels for you to choose from, namely Freshman, Varsity, All-American and Heisman.

Although higher difficulty levels mean that you may earn more College Football 26 coins by winning games, it is still recommended to make plans after learning the requirements of each difficulty level in detail.

Freshman

As the name suggests, this difficulty setting is suitable for players who have never played similar games or have no knowledge of American football rules. Otherwise, it will only waste time because it is too simple.

In this difficulty, any offensive and defensive actions of your AI opponents are very predictable, and they will give you enough reaction time to dodge the opponent’s attack or pass the ball to your teammates.

Based on this very tolerant game limit, you can take the opportunity to fully familiarize yourself with all the rules of the game, and test and summarize your own CFB 26 tactics so that you can perform better in other difficulties.

Varsity

Compared to Freshman, your AI opponents will become “smarter” and more difficult to deal with after entering Varsity difficulty, so whether it is offense or defense, you need to utilize preliminary tactics and be more focused.

If you have learned all the gameplay and rules through Freshman, or if you are returning as a player of College Football or Madden series, you can choose this difficulty.

All-American

Starting from this difficulty, your CFB 26 game will become really challenging. You need to stay alert and focused at all times during the game, and constantly think about any actions that your opponent may make next.

In addition, you need to properly upgrade and optimize the tactics you have previously formulated to adapt them to All-American difficulty, otherwise it is likely to cause additional mistakes and cause the game to fail.

Heisman

As the most difficult difficulty, only real hardcore CUT 26 players can handle Heisman. It not only requires you to be familiar with all the content of the game, but also requires you to have some understanding of real football games.

Therefore, it is generally not recommended that you challenge this mode rashly in the short time after you come into contact with the game, because it is likely that your enthusiasm for the game will be hit by frequent failures.

How To Choose The Difficulty That Suits You?

If you are a complete novice, please do not hesitate to choose Freshman. Only it will allow you to slowly explore all the gameplay and rules, unless you find it too simple for you-then it is time to enter Varsity.

In comparison, Varsity will allow you to continue to familiarize yourself with the game in a slightly challenging but overall friendly way, and gradually grow into a qualified CFB 26 player until you can handle All-American level.

Generally, shortly after the game starts, most NCAA 26 players should be at this level for a long time. It can maintain enough challenges and fun for a long time, allowing you to continuously upgrade your tactics and win more victories.

As for when you can experience Heisman, it is difficult to say, because there is no fixed standard. You can only judge it by yourself after countless practice.

It is worth mentioning that there is a Dynamic difficulty level in MLB The Show 25. Its function is to automatically select the most suitable difficulty for your current level based on your performance in the intelligent testing system.

From the perspective of game integrity, EA CFB 26 can also learn from and add similar settings. However, since CFB 26 has far fewer difficulty levels, it is completely feasible to test and choose by yourself.

How To Change The Difficulty?

When you find that you have selected a difficulty level that does not match your game level, or when you have grown to the point where you can enter the next difficulty, you need to change the game difficulty in time.

The specific steps are as follows:

• 1. Find and open the Settings menu.
• 2. Find the Game Options tab.
• 3. Find the Skill Level option.
• 4. Switch and select between the four difficulty options as needed.

Once you have determined the difficulty you want to change, please make sure that all changes you have made are saved and applied before exiting the menu to avoid wasting time.

The above information should be enough to help you experience the primary game mode after completing the difficulty selection of EA Sports College Football 26. I wish you a happy game!

Hello players, the early access to College Football 26 has been unlocked, and all pre-ordered players can enter the game.
