Well if they are giving EVERY game they release every year to the subscription the following year then wouldn't that hurt EA money wise? For instance why buy the next Fifa, the next BF or Madden when they come out if all I have to do is wait til the following year and get all of them for $30? So EA would essentially be getting $30 as opposed to say $180(not including taxes of course). And of course this will hurt used game sells there is no denying that.
From the games currently available they are not "old" games they are games that are only about a year old. Fifa 14, Madden 25, BF4 heck those are the latest games in their respective series. Heck some of them are not even a year old yet Madden 25 and Fifa 14 for example. So yeah I can see them losing more money than they would gain. Great value for consumers without a doubt though. Because I can save over $150 a year to play these games now.

Sports games devalue super fast and after a year barely anybody buys them. I'm pretty sure EA will introduce them in the program 4-5, 5-6 months after release as they sell a lot.

That makes sense but still wouldn't that be shooting themselves in the foot kind of? I mean again why buy the game if I only have to wait 6 months or so to almost get it for free(even though $30 a year is not "free" but a STEAL would be an understatement). Again GREAT value for consumers and it will save us tons of money!
