They put them first last year.
Anyway the problem here is that EA ranks players so highly that there's very little difference in quality between a 3rd liner and a first liner. Everyone's got an overall rating of 80 or higher, so in any given simulation, it's going to be more or less a coin toss. If they went back to a ranking system that meant something, where you'd have the worst players being ranked... even just in the 50's would do it. You wouldn't have to do it like they did in the early 90's where the Sens' defence were ranked a 2 overall. But just make it so there's at least some gap between the good and mediocre players in the league.
