Now that Madden NFL 17 is officially released, lets run through everything you need to know about this years version of the video game, including the top rookies, the fastest players, the best teams and more.PLAYERSThe 99 ClubRob Gronkowski, TE, Patriots Luke Kuechly, LB, Panthers Von Miller, OLB, Broncos J.J. Watt, DE, TexansBiggest takeaway:?No player on this list helped his Madden stock in a shorter time period than Miller. He disrupted just 1.9 percent of opposing quarterbacks dropbacks in the regular season, the second-lowest rate of his career. But the playoffs were a different story (4.7 percent), catapulting Miller into Maddens 99 club.Biggest surprise:?Steelers WR?Antonio Brown?has been the single most unstoppable offensive player of the past two seasons -- 132.5 catches, 1,766 receiving yards and 11.5 TDs on average. And yet, Brown landed a 97 Madden rating for the second consecutive year.Best rookies1. Jalen Ramsey, CB, Jaguars (82) 2. Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Cowboys (80) T-3. Robert Aguayo, K, Buccaneers (79) T-3. Joey Bosa, DE, Chargers (79) T-3. Ronnie Stanley, LT, Ravens (79)Biggest takeaway: Elliott will get more opportunities than any rookie to exceed his rating, which is tied for 31st among all RBs. Running behind the NFLs best offensive line, Elliott has a real chance to finish in the top five in rushing.?Biggest surprise: Texans speedy WR?Will Fuller?is getting rave reviews in training camp, but he didnt even crack the top-10 rookies. Houstons lack of a clear-cut No. 2 receiver could play in Fullers favor as a rookie. ?Best awareness ratingT-1. Tom Brady, QB, Patriots (99) T-1. Antonio Brown, WR, Steelers (99) T-3. Drew Brees, QB, Saints (98) T-3. Larry Fitzgerald, WR, Cardinals (98) T-3. Luke Kuechly, LB, Panthers (98)Biggest takeaway: Just two defenders (Kuechly and Derrick Johnson) had an awareness rating of 95 or higher, compared to 12 offensive players. Kuechly fits right in among this crew: He makes a habit of jumping routes and shooting gaps based on pre-snap reads.?Biggest surprise: Aaron Rodgers?91 awareness rating sounds high, but Brady, Brees, Carson Palmer (94) and Philip Rivers (94) ranked ahead of him among quarterbacks. Watch this video and tell me Rodgers doesnt deserve to be in that group.?Best speed ratingT-1. Brandin Cooks, WR, Saints (96) T-1. Phillip Dorsett, WR, Colts (96) T-1. Jakeem Grant, WR, Dolphins (96) T-1. Corey Grant, RB, Jaguars (96) T-1. J.J. Nelson, WR, Cardinals (96)Biggest takeaway: Pure speed doesnt always translate to on-field success. The average overall Madden rating of the five players above is 69.4, with Cooks (82) being the most established. The Saints WR had 1,138 yards and 9 TDs last season.Biggest surprise: Panthers WR?Ted Ginn Jr.?ran past just about every secondary he played against last season, but mustered only a 92 speed rating in Madden NFL 17. That sound you hear is Ginn challenging the 31 receivers rated faster than him to a foot race.Best agility ratingT-1. Tavon Austin, WR, Rams (98) T-1. Antonio Brown, WR, Steelers (98) T-1. LeSean McCoy, RB, Bills (98)Biggest takeaway:?McCoy was banged up last season, but when healthy, Shady is still as shifty as ever. Just check out how easily he shakes Bengals CB Dre Kirkpatrick on this play.Biggest surprise: Jerick McKinnon and Denard Robinson?(96) both had a better agility rating than Steelers RB?LeVeon Bell (95). Lets poll defenders and see who they think is more terrifying in the open field.Best strength ratingT-1. Stephen Paea, DE, Redskins (98) T-1. Ndamukong Suh, DT, Dolphins (98) T-3. Russell Bodine, C, Bengals (97) T-3. Mike Iupati, G, Cardinals (97) T-3. Dontari Poe, DT, Chiefs (97) T-3. Jared Veldheer, T, Cardinals (97) T-3. J.J. Watt, DE, Texans (97)Biggest takeaway:?Suh makes $3 million more annually?and?has a better strength rating?than Watt??How does J.J. sleep at night? (Answer: With his three Defensive Player of the Year awards snuggled close.) In all seriousness, how much would you pay to watch these two have a bench-pressing contest? Count me in for $20.Biggest surprise: Aaron Donald?--?who?put up 35 reps on the bench press at the 2014 NFL combine and beasts through double-teams with regularity -- could muster only a 94 strength rating. Thats tied for 18th overall. Something aint right.TEAMSBest offenses1. Pittsburgh Steelers (93) T-2. Carolina Panthers (91) T-2. Arizona Cardinals (91)Biggest takeaway: Most NFL pundits would agree that the Steelers have the widest array of offensive weapons -- when at full strength. The problem? The lethal combination of QB Ben Roethlisberger, WR Antonio Brown, RB LeVeon Bell and WR Martavis Bryant has played just 13 percent of the Steelers offensive snaps together the past two seasons. That number will be at 0 percent in 2016 with Bryant slated to miss the entire season because of another suspension.Biggest surprise:?The Oakland Raiders -- the same team that ranked 23rd in points per games from Weeks 10-17 (18.3) -- are tied for fourth in Maddens offense ratings.?Best defenses1. Kansas City Chiefs (93) T-2. Denver Broncos (91) T-2. New England Patriots (91)Biggest takeaway: The Chiefs defense finished No. 2 in Football Outsiders DVOA metric?last season -- and that was with OLB Justin Houston (97 overall rating) missing all or most of the final six games. So Kansas City showed enough to be one of the top-three defenses, but ...Biggest surprise:?How didnt the Broncos finish with the best rating?!? When you hold Tom Brady and Cam Newton to a collective Total QBR of 18.9 in the two biggest games of the season, you should probably be the No. 1 defense the next season. Just sayin.?Best overall teamsT-1. Carolina Panthers (87) T-1. New England Patriots (87) T-3. Green Bay Packers (85) T-3. Kansas City Chiefs (85) T-3. Pittsburgh Steelers (85) T-3. Seattle Seahawks (85)Biggest takeaway:?Regression, what regression? Madden has high hopes for the Panthers after they went 15-1 in the 2015 regular season. If Carolina ends up getting the NFCs No. 1 seed again, you have to think QB Cam Newtons overall rating (94) will be on the rise in Madden NFL 18.Biggest surprise: The Dallas Cowboys -- who are banking on brittle QB Tony Romo staying healthy for 16 games -- have the same rating as the Arizona Cardinals (84). Yes, the same Cardinals who went 13-3 last season and made it to the NFC Championship Game.

The Predators Get: D Michael Del Zotto. Sri Lanka 247 for 6 (Karunaratne 110, de Silva 64, Mumba 4-50 ) and 537 lead Zimbabwe 373 by 411 runs Scorecard and ball-by-ball detailsDimuth Karunaratne struck his second fifty-plus score of the match and his first Test century in a year to bump up Sri Lankas lead to 411 before rain wiped out almost all of the third session. His 94-run stand for the fifth wicket with Dhananjaya de Silva, which came at 4.47 runs an over, on a surface with variable bounce, countered debutant fast bowler Carl Mumbas strikes and helped Sri Lanka re-establish their dominance in Harare.With a thunderstorm predicted for Wednesday, Sri Lanka might consider an overnight declaration to force a result.In the absence of Angelo Mathews and Dinesh Chandimal, Karunaratne was the most experienced batsman in the side. Yet, he was under pressure going into the Zimbabwe tour, having bagged eight single-digit scores in his last 12 innings. His slump could have been extended to 10 single-digit scores in 14 innings had Zimbabwe hung onto their chances. He, however, rode his luck, and followed his chancy 56 in the first innings with a more secure century in the second.He was dropped on 5 by Brian Chari, diving to his left at extra cover, on the fourth morning, but other than that Karunaratne seemed in control. He had joined forces with de Silva after Mumba had struck either side of the lunch break. Kusal Mendis skied a leading edge to the right of mid-on where it was pouched, while Upul Tharanga drove away from the body and nicked behind. With Sri Lanka at 117 for 4, Zimbabwe sensed an opening, but the visitors slammed the doors on them.De Silva was fluent from the outset, punching and flicking with typical insouciance. The shot of his knock, however, was the check-driven straight four off a Chris Mpofu offcutter in 39th over. He further upped the scoring rate when he swatted Greme Cremer for two boundaries in the 48tth over.dddddddddddd By then the lead was 345.De Silva brought up his fifty off 65 balls. His fluency probably rubbed off on Karunaratne, who grew comfortable in the second session, after being put through a stern examination in the channel outside off in the morning. Later when the seamers dug the ball short and aimed to cramp him up, he did well to ride the bounce and pull behind square. He reached the three-figure mark by nudging Cremer to square leg, and it was relief rather than raucous celebration for the opener. Karunaratne and De Silva then exited either side of tea before rain allowed only 23 balls. Karunaratne chipped an offcutter back to Mpofu, while de Silva jabbed a rising delivery to point to give Mumba his fourth wicket.At the end of the third days play, Zimbabwes captain Cremer outlined their plan: pin down the flow of runs with tight bowling and in-out fields. Mumba reaped the reward for relentlessly probing away on a fourth-stump line - or occasionally a set of stumps outside off - when Kaushal Silva played away from the body and inside-edged a drive to leg stump for 7 off 20 balls.Kusal Perera, batting at No. 3, then creamed his second delivery to the right of extra cover for four in the 10th over, also the first boundary of the innings. Karunaratne, meanwhile, got into his groove with a brace of late-cut fours. They put on 55 in 12.5 overs, before part-time offspinner Malcolm Waller struck in his second over to have Perera caught at slip for 17. Waller had looped it up on the rough and got it to spin away to find the outside edge, which was snaffled by Hamilton Masakadza diving to his left.Karunaratne and de Silva, however, foiled Cremers plans as the day progressed. Considering the rain threat, Sri Lankas plans could be foiled too. ' ' '
