Finn5033 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) I seriously hope the fantasy sites change is designation to QB only. I run a 12 man std league and about 10 years ago we had a similar situation where the Vikings back up QB Joe Webb was listed as a WR as well. We got to the playoffs and Webb had to start at QB and one of the guys in the league snatched him up and played him at WR. The other guys in the league were up in arms about it, which to be honest I kind of don’t blame them. If a guy starts at QB he should be a QB only. So I snatched up Hill this week in case this happened. And to be honest if ESPN leaves him as a QB/TE I’m not going to play him at TE. I’m glad I got him so nobody else could do it either Edited November 20, 2020 by Finn5033 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Storm Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 an owner in my league has him projected getting 20+ points and is in his TE position. Crazy. ESPN does not have an official statement as to whether or not they will remove the tight end designation. Hopefully it will change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their policy was that whatever designation they started the year at they stayed at the rest of the year regardless of position changes. But I have to admit it would suck pretty bad to play against someone using a QB in a TE spot. Some people will say that's the strategy of drafting him but that just seems a little gimmicky to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a starting QB that you can play as a TE is just flat out wrong.

purplemonster Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Either way it will be nice to see what taysom hill can do with a full game. We know what Jameis Winston is like. I'd like to see how this guy fares with a full game or three Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rajncajn Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Or, Taysom Hill could be taking all the 1st team reps just to get him up to speed & ready to actually be the backup QB vs what he has been. I'm staying away from this from a fantasy football perspective, but I'm excited to see Taysom get the opportunity to show what he can do. I just hope he's ready for it.

I picked up Colston that year. He was solid for half a season. Unfortunately, Cbssports back then changed Colston to a WR only just like they have Taysom listed only as a QB. I believe espn and/or yahoo listed Colston as a hybrid WR/TE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they split the reps he should get at least 12-15 points in the TE position. Hopefully even more, I'll take that all day from a TE. Unfortunately ESPN is the only one of my leagues that have him as a TE anymore. All the others have him listed as a QB only which sucks, for my teams.
