With the switch to 4.6, playing WR at RB is happening again in many leagues. Our rules currently don't allow this, but should we scrap this rule for next season?

I'm not counting my vote yet, I had to pick something to see the results. If you've already voted, subtract 1 from the yes column.

Personally I'm 50/50 about this. I'm hoping 1 option has a clear margin over the other, if not, we may need further discussion.

When I do this, they are switched to RB position, I just don't like out of position play!

I'll probably close this poll Monday so please vote if you haven't yet.

There are good points to both sides of this. Personally, I like it the way it is but I'm not against using WR.

I don't think it's overpowered using a WR at RB, but I personally prefer only having RB's at RB

I personally don't care one way or the other but there is nothing that suggests wrs are better than rbs at running the ball. See the out of position data: https://bigdata.myfootballnow.com/forums/1/61?page=1#275

If anyone wants to use WR @ RB, you better get your votes in. Right now it's 10-5 against it, so it looks like the RB only rule won't change.
