Rising Stars: Madden 25's Best Young Players

When looking at all the talent in the NFL, the young stars are starting to take over the show. There are certain names fans think of when talking about the best young players in Madden 25 but just how good are they is the question. Longevity and the wear and tear of these younger players is something to consider if they will still be good in 5 years.

The last 2 year's draft classes saw the Quarterbacks take over, notably CJ Stroud who led a bottom-tier Texans team to a playoff win, Stroud is currently an 81 overall. The previous two number 1 overall picks are both Quarterbacks Caleb Williams and Bryce Young, Williams is sitting at 76 overall and Young at 70 overall. The best young Quarterback would be Brock Purdy at 85 overall, some argue QBs like Tua or Josh Allen are still young, but Purdy in his 3rd year is a good cutoff.

Running backs and receivers have just as much if not more talent among young players, Kenneth Walker at 88 overall is a 3rd year Running back with lots of potential. Chris Olave at 86 overall and Zay Flowers at 85 overall are young star Wide receivers who have already become the number one option on their team. Sam LaPorta at 86 overall and Kyle Pitts rated 83, are among not just the best young Tight Ends but the best Tight Ends in the league.

On the defensive end of the ball, there is a lot of potential and talent as well. Aidan Hitchinson at 88 overall and Jalen Carter at 82 overall are a dominating presence on the defensive line. In the secondary players like Sauce Gardner, at 97 overall, and Budda Baker at 90 overall have made veteran receivers think twice before lining up against them.

Conclusion

As sports fans know there comes a time when the old veterans are on the decline and the new stars are on the rise, looking at the recent playoff results it is a new era in football. Many young stars like Tank Dell have reinvigorated the fan base of the Houston Texans, the NFL is always fun to watch but with these new stars taking over the league, it has never been more exciting.

Madden 25 is one of my favorite installments of the series and if your goal is to build a franchise the players listed would be a valuable asset to your team. With the season going into week 2, there will no doubt be changes in ratings throughout the season, especially in younger stars. There are other young stars who are not mentioned and could end up having a breakout season and become top players in the NFL.
