I doubt this is officially how it is done, but seems to be pretty fair.

I would say just like any rookie he shouldn't be rated any higher than mid to upper 70s. Anything 80 and above is reserved for the Roy Williams (Cowboys) of the NFL. The 84 awareness is definately too high for a rookie. Not sure on the speed either. He was clocked at a 4.61, I have seen rating scales that actually break down how the 40 times translate to speed ratings and I think 82 might be a little high.

80 speed
80 accel
70 strength
85 tackling
78 awareness (very high for a rookie lb in madden)
55 catching
90 toughness (he hits really hard and is INTENSE)

I still think the speed is too high. Ray Lewis is only rated as a 78. Also, toughness is based on more than how hard he hits. I believe it is more related to how well a player avoids injuries. I don't know what Vilma's injury history has been like so I can't really can't comment on that rating. Here's my best stab at the ratings though.

75 speed
77 accel
70 strength
81 tackling
73 awareness
?? toughness

You are so fkin biased man. Obviously, they are 99's across the boards.

Take off your Patriots shirt and see players for what they really are.
