Looked quick, came up empty. What are the rules regarding position changes/eligibility in ottoneu football? In regard to Juwan Johnson of the Saints. Would be a nice pickup as a TE, but he’s only eligible as a WR seeing as he made a position change this off-season. How many games till he becomes TE eligible?
I wrote a bit about this in 2016:
We generally defer to our data provider and if they make a position change for a player we will reflect that. We update rosters every other day for team changes, position changes, etc. so if they make the change we should reflect it pretty quickly.
I am sweatily holding Cordarelle Patterson and Juwan Johnson in anticipation.
Jacques Patrick will soon be switching teams from Cin to SF all while be auctioned.
Rotowire’s site now lists Juwan Johnson as a TE. Isn’t that Ottoneu’s data provider for this sort of thing?
Here’s a screenshot from Rotowire that shows Johnson listed as a TE (bottom right):
I would have bid higher on Patterson had he been a running back.
Rotowire also lists Patterson as Running Back, as does the official Atlanta Falcons depth chart. Can we please get him updated to reflect his actual position?
Yeah, most every other site has them listed as RB and TE and if Rotowire does too I would hope it happens soon.
Yeah, count me as another guy hoping to see Patterson listed as a RB any day now.
We do not use Rotowire for position eligibility. If there is a change from our data provider, it will be automatically reflected on the site.
And as I write that, Cordarelle Patterson is now a RB and Juwan Johnson is now a TE.
