I've been thinking, since the WR market is so ludicrous his offseason, of signing some of the abundant HBs and converting them into receivers.

Would this work?

Yes. My speed HB plays at the WR #4 slot and is awesome from it.

I think the penalty is minimal.

Its likely less than 5%, maybe even less than 2%. I beleive bort announced that the biggest OOP penalty is 10% (which I assume is for playing QB at saftey, or punter at DL). Might be a pain to convince a RB to softcap catching, though if you get a power RB at WR with a bunch power thru...watch out I'd imagine.

I think it would work , we've done it a little as well .

Would be interesting to see a power RB and see if he could knock down some DBs
