Courtney Brown #27 FS
Height: 6'1"
Team: Dallas Cowboys
Overall: 65
Key Attribute: Jump (94) - Speed (95)
Note: Brown is GREAT for the player being controlled on Defense. He brings a lot to the table with jump and speed. He is great for the USER PICK and the USER SWAT.

Maurice Stovall #85 WR
Height: 6'4"
Team: Tampa Bay Bucs
Overall: 79
Key Attribute: Jump (95)
Note: At 6'4" and 95 jump, Stovall is a MONSTER when it comes to user catchin and quick passing.

John Broussard #15 WR
Height: 6'1"
Team: Jacksonville Jaguars
Overall: 71
Key Attribute: Jump (94)
Note: With his Jump attribute, he is very dangerous. Put him in the slot, your opponent will forget about him because he isn't very well known and either you get him one on one for a Quickpass or a User Catch. He is a PURE hidden gem.

Aveion Cason #36 HB
Height: 5'10"
Team: Detroit Lions

Overall: 71
Key Attribute: Speed (94)
Note: Never heard of him? Of Course not. He's a rookie HB, but he's very dangerous. Great for Punt/Kick returns, his speed makes him a headache to catch up with.

Legedu Naanee #40 TE
Height: 6'2"
Team: San Diego Chargers
Overall: 79
Key Attribute: Speed (92) - Jump (95)
Note: This hidden gem goes along great with one of the toughest WR core madden has seen in years. Almost all the the WR/TE's on the charges can easily Jetpack or Rocket Catch. While defenses will key on Antonio Gates, look for Naanee to be open in your two tight end sets.

John Bowie #35 CB
Height: 5'11"
Team: Oakland Raiders
Overall: 67
Key Attribute: Speed (95) - Jump (92)
Note: This Gem adds speed to the already speedy CB core of the Raiders, along with Washington Fabion and Stanford Routte, these CB's have speeds of 98/96/95, great for Madden, because we all know, SPEED KILLS.
