It just came out in the BRFL that Austin Ekeler has a dual designation as a a RB and a WR. The GM gets a RB who averages 4.4 ypc on 206 carries but also gets a 87 rating at WR. Is this really something the league wants ?

Per my off-season post, positional eligibility is something we're looking to clean up prior to free agency.

As always, thanks for everything you do.

This is something Ive brought up in the past as well, tying to figure out what the standard is for getting a player the RB/WR designation.

Personally, we may want to consider a threshhold of receptions on the year that gets the RB to factor into the WR grade, because for the team that player is on, they are obviously a big part of the passing game.

I have Ekeler on two of my teams because of his high value to the team.

Another unicorn out there is Patrick Ricard, counting as a DT and FB, while he has played DT, I dont think he has played much the past couple years...I may just not be able to find the stats but I believe he is very much more FB than DT
