EA Sports is scheduled to launch Madden 24 on August 18, 2023. The game will feature 76 former Alabama football players. That might be the most players from a single college team in the entire game.
A lot of that has to do with what head coach Nick Saban has been able to do since joining the program in 2006. Saban has transcended the Crimson Tide into a college football powerhouse. In doing so, NFL organizations have noticed and begun to draft some of Alabama’s very own.
With all of the ratings finally revealed, Roll Tide Wire will taking a look at every positional group that has Alabama players. Today, we feature the quarterback position.

Jalen Hurts’ ranking is reasonable in my opinion. However, I do feel like he did enough for the Eagles organization to elevate his ranking enough to be a 90 overall. Tua Tagovailoa’s ranking is somewhat understandable considering he missed several games to injury. He could also be an 85 or 86, though. As for Mac Jones, he seems underrated as well. 75 is a bit low. Jones has had a lack of skilled players surrounding him resulting in his low ranking. Bryce Young has a fair rating given the fact that he is a rookie. The trend continues for me, however. I feel like Young should have at least been a 76 or 77.
