A beloved tight end, and a rating that towers over the truth
Chris Cooley was a sure-handed, popular receiving tight end who spent his whole nine-year career in Washington, a quarterback's friend who moved the chains and became one of the most beloved players of the franchise's modern era.
His Madden card carries one of the game's stranger numbers, a 98 in the 2007 edition that towers absurdly over the rest of his career, most of it in the high 70s to low 90s. It followed a solid but hardly elite 2006 season and reads as a rating quirk, not a sign he was ever a top-three player. The real Cooley was a two-time Pro Bowler with more than 400 catches, better read as the steady high-70s-to-90s player.
