Taysom Hill and ESPN eligibility at TE

Budmonsan · Posted Fri 11.20.2020, 14:33 **#31**

I stopped playing in espn lgs years ago but I don’t get it either. Everyone knew the position he is listed at regardless of where he plays.

There was a similar situation years ago but I can’t remember who the player was.

Thats what I was thinking, doesn’t make sense to start hill here.

What I meant to say is it doesn’t make sense to announce hill here.

pick him up and stash him on the bench. then 30 minutes before the game, they should announce it and act accordingly.

Once the season has begun, ESPN cannot change the primary position. However, a player can gain additional eligibility for other positions (done by ESPN) during the season if circumstances warrant it.

LMBO!

I don't know, but I tend to think where there's smoke there's fire. Could Peyton just be upset that his decision was leaked to the media and trying to control the narrative?

Dare start Tyson over Lamar this week?

Don’t remember who it was but someone from ESPN was talking about this very thing. He said that if Hill was named the starter for this week he would keep his TE title until the week after and then he would lose it. No worries unless your going up against him this week.

The only value Hill has is if you can play him at TE or WR. . He is a low-end QB2 otherwise.

Don't get cute. Start LJ.

All this and Sean Peyton wont confirm who the starter is. lol! Also not fun for fantasy football as Im about to roll out Andy Dalton this week and likely until Brees is back as if one of Hill/Winston does in fact emerge as the starter Ill be too far in waiver priority to snag either.

The only way I’d start him is in deep starting roster leagues, and that would be at either TE(ESPN) or WR(MFL)
I guess if you are in a. Bind in a super flex league, he could go for you.

If that Saints defense kicks butt this week, we could see a lot more Taysom than we expect.
If Tebow can do it, so can Taysom.

He’s going to be better for fantasy than irl. Could have some good rushing stats and I wouldn’t be surprised if he is a low end QB1 (or high end wr/te1).

You might be thinking of Marques Colston. He was listed as a TE instead of WR for his first season.
