He has experienced something of a career renai sance with the 49ers after he skipped the 2019 season while searching for a trade away from Washington. The former No. 4 overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft Myles Garrett Jersey has been a rock-solid blocker and has made the Pro Bowl during each of the last nine seasons in which he has played.That Christian Kirksey Jersey said, it is somewhat hard to believe that Madden hasn't put a 99-overall offensive lineman into its game before. What is the closest that they have gotten? Here's a breakdown of Madden's top-rated offensive linemen over the last decade.MORE: Madden offensive linemen haven't gotten a lot of love over the years, but a select handful of them have been rated highly by Madden's ratings adjustors. Williams is currently the only lineman to ever receive a natural 99 grade, but several players have rated 96 or higher in recent years.Before Williams' elevation, he and Zack Martin rated as the league's best overall blockers with a rating of 98. There have been six total 98 ratings for offensive linemen since Madden 25, which was released in advance of the 2013 NFL season.During that span, only 10 players have initially graded at 96 or higher on the offensive line. That said, there have been 23 ratings of 96 or higher, so the offensive linemen that stay highly rated David Njoku Jersey tend to keep those high-end grades long-term.MORE: Below is the full list of offensive linemen with 96 or better ratings since the release of Madden NFL 25.PlayerTeamRatingGameTrent Williams49ers99Madden 23Trent Williams49ers98Madden 22Zack MartinCowboys98Madden 22, 21Tyron SmithCowboys98Madden 17Marshal YandaRavens98Madden 16Joe ThomasBrowns98Madden15Evan MathisEagles98Madden 25David BakhtiariPackers97Madden 20, 19Marshal YandaRavens97Madden 17, 25Josh SittonPackers97Madden 16, 15Evan MathisEagles97Madden 15Joe ThomasBrowns97Madden 25Zack MartinCowboys96Madden 20, 19Marshal YandaRavens96Madden 18Joe ThomasBrowns96Madden 17Jason PetersEagles96Madden 16Josh SittonPackers96Madden 25Joe Staley49ers96Madeen 25It's worth noting that this list will probably expand shortly. The full ratings for Madden 23 have yet to drop and once they do, a couple of blockers may be tacked onto this list. In particular, Tristan Wirfs and Quenton Nelson Joel Bitonio Jersey should be monitored as those young, dynamic linemen inch closer toward their prime.But it would be a surprise to see another 99-overall lineman join Williams atop the list any time soon. That honor is reserved only for the best of the best.
