Where did you find that statistic? I was trying to see where all the fumbles were but couldn't find it. I primarily use him as an RB which is why I counted him as an RB. I also did something similar with Carolina's FB where he is positioned FB but listed TE.

Makes sense, I'll keep that in mind for future reference. Thanks.

I was going to comment that the te options are rather bland, but this league does not prohibit small players from playing te, so I know that’s actually where a lot of the big time wr made their money as well.

I don't do that shift, but perhaps in this league if you want to do well, you need to do it right?

I dunno about “need” to…this was the first year I actively did with my slow wr Williams, he scored 3 tds early on, then spent a lot of the season hurt or in the slot elsewhere while my actual te/fb rotated through. Depends on how much run blocking you want to do out of a given formation compared to passing. The other 2 leagues I play/admin do not allow for rb/wr in the te slot and it makes legit big targets very important.
