I like it just the way it is right now.

atm I use WR/RB at KR and accept the loss of an in-game boost from my STeam AC.

However, in the future, I intend to see how well a KR does when assigned as KR. It may well be worth having a designated KR, based on the results we are seeing in the kicking game from Teams without a STeam AC.

So the next KR I pick up will get an extended tryout at KR first.


btw - Admin planned to make some changes to the kick-return game - has anyone seen any long returns so far this season?

I don't agree.

Speed and agility are for KR,WR, and RB important, but a KR need more Vision and RB and WR more positioning.


I'm only basing my comments on the draftees. There wasn't a huge gap between kr and rb/wr for positioning or vision. A couple of points perhaps.

My statement is meant to be more a general statement that the skill sets are pretty darn close, of course it might not be "exact.?

....from the Manual:

Carrying
Carrying helps Running backs, Wide receivers and Tight ends to carry the ball through the defensive lines. It is useful for defenders too, if they are returning an interception or fumble. Of course, it is also important for returning a kick or punt. Carrying avoids fumbling the ball. Carrying is the theoretical aspect - how to - of carrying a ball.

Well if you guys are comparing KR draftees with other positions, then I really don't know how WR and TE got in the picture. And even RB is good as KR for his carrying skills, but a KR has vision as his second best skill instead of positioning.

For WR, I belive its more a reallife asumption. Cause you see players like Hester, Jackson, Ginn return punts and kicks frequently. TE no idea.
