Madden NFL 26 overall ratings for every Patriots rookie draft pick
With the official release of EA's Madden NFL 26 right around the corner, the popular video game franchise is trickling out player ratings. They recently revealed the ratings for all of the New England Patriots' rookie 2025 NFL draft picks. Patriots offensive tackle Will Campbell made the top 10 as the fifth-highest rated rookie in the game. The former LSU standout was the No. 4 overall draft pick and arguably the best offensive lineman in the country last season. However, the Patriots have multiple rookies on their roster who should have popped a decent overall rating, including running back TreVeyon Henderson, wide receiver Kyle Williams and kicker Andres Borregales. Here are the overall ratings for every Patriots' rookie draft pick: The Patriots are believed to have selected one of their best draft classes in recent memory, at least on paper. Campbell, Wilson, Borregales and Ashby are considered likely starters this season, even though they're still technically competing for jobs at training camp. Henderson, Williams, Woodson, Farmer and even Swinson are also expected to be contributors right out of the gate. It's as promising a rookie class as the Patriots have ever had.

Former LSU football tackle Will Campbell learns first Madden rating
Ahead of his first season in the NFL, former LSU football star Will Campbell scored among the best in his draft class for his rating on Madden 26. The former LSU offensive lineman is No. 5 with an 79 overall rating. He is tied with fellow New England Patriots' rookie Jalon Walker at the top 10 list. Campbell was selected with the No. 4 overall pick during the 2025 NFL Draft. The left tackle came off a fruitful three seasons in Baton Rouge, ending as a consensus All-American in 2024. He helped reestablish LSU's dominance in the trenches as part of head coach Brian Kelly's first recruiting class. As a 2022 prospect, Campbell earned a five-star rating and No. 14 overall ranking in the ESPN300. As a sophomore in 2023, Campbell led a unit that was named a finalist for the Joe Moore Award, given annually to college football's best line. Campbell blocked for Jayden Daniels, Malik Nabers, and Brian Thomas Jr. as part of the nation's top offense in 2023. He raised his level of play last year, which landed him high on scouts' draft boards. Here is the top 10 list for rookie Madden 26 ratings.

Patriots rookie gets top-10 rating in Madden NFL 26
New England Patriots rookie offensive tackle Will Campbell has landed in the top 10 of EA's Madden NFL 26 rookie rankings. Campbell came in at the fifth spot, sporting an overall rating of 79. Rounding out the top five were Cleveland Browns defensive tackle Mason Graham, New York Giants edge rusher Abdul Carter, Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty and Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Travis Hunter. Hunter was the highest-rated out of all the rookies with a rating of 84. These rookie ratings should excite Patriots fans considering Campbell could be a cornerstone left tackle for years to come. Video game ratings are not the be-all and end-all, of course, but they can tell you the expected returns on a player. Hopefully, Campbell helps solidify the offensive line and serves as a key piece for the Patriots this year. Protecting the quarterback's blindside was something the team struggled to do last season, and it would be a major disappointment if it's more of the same in 2025.
