I Love Flexibility...You Should Too

If you have been reading my site over the last couple of years you know my love of players with multi-position eligibility. They provide great flexibility to your roster. Whether you're making trades, working the waiver wire or playing the matchups in leagues that allow daily moves, having roster flexibility can go a long way in helping you maximize your team's production. You shouldn't reach for players based on their ability to play multiple positions, as talent and opportunity should ultimately win out, but it's something to be mindful of when planning and executing your draft-day strategy. With leagues ranging anywhere from 5-20 games played to be eligible at a position I went with 10 on this list.
