BALTIMORE, MD – NOVEMBER 10: Fullback Kyle Juszczyk /

Fullbacks

1. Kyle Juszczyk

Juszczyk enters the season with a 91 overall rating, making him not only the top rated fullback in the game but one of the highest rated offensive players in the game at any position. His versatility earns him those high marks.

2. James Develin

Another member of the New England Patriots makes an appearance on this list, and for good reason. There are few “battering ram” type fullbacks with or without the ball left in the NFL, and Develin is the best. His 84 overall rating is proof.

3. Patrick DiMarco

One of the best run blockers at his position in the league, the Madden DiMarco begins the season with an overall rating of 84. Players who are able to get him out in front of LeSean McCoy should see plenty of open field.

4. Aaron Ripkowski

Players who find themselves in short-yardage situations or ones in which they are expecting the opponent to send a blitz will be happy with Ripkowski’s skills that shine in those circumstances, leading to his 83 overall rating.

5. Andy Janovich

Janovich is another of the backs here who excel at blowing holes in opposing defenses. His 82 overall rating doesn’t include him being much of a receiving option in the passing game, but he’s still one of the best at blocking.
