A blown-out knee sent him undrafted, then to 15 sacks

Adewale Ogunleye left Indiana with 34.5 sacks, a school record, and a projection as a first- or second-round pick. A torn knee before the 2000 draft erased all of it, and he went unselected, signing with Miami and spending his first NFL year on injured reserve. He built the whole thing back from nothing. By 2003 he led the AFC with 15 sacks, made the Pro Bowl, and won the Dolphins' Dan Marino MVP award.

Miami traded him to Chicago in 2004 for receiver Marty Booker and a third-round pick, and he became a captain on the Bears defense that reached Super Bowl XLI. He retired with 67.5 sacks across 11 seasons split among Miami, Chicago, and Houston, the grandson of a Yoruba oba who earned everything the hard way. In Madden he entered as an 82 in the 2003 edition, and after his production in Chicago he climbed to a peak of 91 in the 2006 game before easing back to the high 80s over his final Bears years.

How to read these: Each row is the player’s rating in that year’s Madden, listed by the NFL season it covers (Madden NFL 2001 = the 2000 season). Madden sets its ratings before the season is played, so they reflect the previous season’s performance - a player’s breakout year tends to show up as a jump in the following year’s game.
Note: Some Madden releases tracked fewer attributes than others. Cells shown as - were not published by EA that year.
