stevegrab Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Yep should have went with my gut and took Ty, Jackson was too appealing and had more need in the RB slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squirrelmastr21 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 So when does Montgomery get RB eligibility? Next year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelredd9 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 So when does Montgomery get RB eligibility? Next year? My guess is that he'll get dual eligibility tomorrow or a week from tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 My guess is that he'll get dual eligibility tomorrow or a week from tomorrow. Curious why you think that happens? Would a fantasy site do that while the team still has him listed only as WR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rileyrott Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I doubt that fantasy sites will change his designation, as a lot of leagues have roster limits and this could make for an illegal roster. IMO, it is something that should be done before the season starts, not during. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelredd9 Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Curious why you think that happens? Would a fantasy site do that while the team still has him listed only as WR? ESPn is considering it: https://www.reddit.com/r/fantasyfootball/comments/58pi7u/espn_is_considering_making_ty_montgomery_a_rbwr/ Here is Yahoo's criteria for adding dual eligibility: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/fantasy-football/SLN6318.html?impressions=true In-season changes to position eligibilityAll position eligibility requests are reviewed, compiled, and forwarded to our data provider, which makes the final decision on position eligibility. Yahoo isn't responsible for modifying position eligibility. As such, we can't speculate on future changes or comment on decisions concerning about individual players. There is no set criteria (minimum number of games, minutes at a new position, etc.) for position eligibility. A new position will be added when our data provider determines that a player's primary position has changed, or he is logging sufficient playing time at a secondary position to warrant adding that position to their eligibility. Good to know - If the position change is considered temporary or situational, position eligibilityWON'T be adjusted. For example, a defensive lineman who lines up at tight end or in the backfield during goal line situations WON'T earn eligibility at a new position. It isn't possible to have both defensive and offensive position eligibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do sites currently deal with players like Dexter McCluster? Does he count as both a running back and a wide receiver for roster limits purposes?

Does he count as both a running back and a wide receiver for roster limits purposes? This year on both ESPN and MFL, McCluster is listed as an RB, and, as such, counts as an RB for roster limits.

stevegrab Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Sounds like Yahoo has no control over what happens but lots of info on how the process works, but in the end not their call. I just don't see a lot of players listed with dual eligibility anymore, so I'd be surprised to see sites doing it. Not surprised I guess that Yahoo and ESPN talk about it, but then there are thousands of public leagues there where there is no real commish or person responsible for the rules. I'd be more surprised to see places like MFL or CBS (where people pay to host, and most leagues are not free public leagues with on league control).
