Is anyone running all TEs in their WR spots?

all pro h2h hacks do this. heavy run or rpo scheme.

Yeah, that's not me. I'm way more pass heavy and I like the quicker, shifty guys with high route run and BTK. Likely not going to do it.

If youre just throwing in short/medium only yes. Best run blockers and most have 90/90/85

2 WRs and 3 TEs at WR position

I've been running Jordan Reed at Wr and he's played well there

I’ve actally thought about putting pitts and nujoku at wr

I like running quick/smaller WRs in my slot, had OBJ for a while now rocking Clayton before I move to Desean next harvest drop

How does this Clayton play for you? It seems a cheap good slot WR.

I don’t know but I think itd work pretty well if you made the right choices in who to use.  For example 90 Pitts is the best Wr I’ve used all year so far, and id say the free Kelce from season 2 is 2nd best. He’s been an animal in the slot for me

Only just within the past ~week did I finally move on from Pitts as WR1.  He's been absolutely fantastic.  Kept George Kittle at actual TightEnd, although over the long holiday weekend i've been using big John Madden (LT) OOP at TE1 for that blazing fast 99 SPD.  Don't let the ~63 CTH stat scare you away, especially if yer using Gift Wrapped on the QB.

Anyhoo, back to your actual question, i picked up Kincaid and he's got 91 SPD, which is totally viable at WR1, however i'm spoiled having 92 SPD Lightning and Tank Dell, plus Randy Moss at 93 SPD almost certainly remains THE best WR in the entire game.  I do love it when EA actually hands out cards that everyone can utilize.  Good luck, I think there's massive potential here.  You could start in some spread sets and audible down to something creative such as Trips TE, perhaps.  I'd be curious how things actually work out for you.

Even if you don't end up using all TEs, I had wonderful success with Kittle & Pitts running fulltime.

Good question. I kind of abandoned the idea due to various reasons mostly listed above. Didn't pick specific players, but my theory was faster, higher route run guys at WR and better blockers at TE.

I imagine you would need at least 2 good blocking TE (TE and maybe FB or TE 2) then really agile and fluid TE at wr

Yes...Mackey is better than any WR

Then Olsen and Kincaid are still legit

I tend to do this in the endgame when everyone is a 99. Gun split with 3 TEs and the ability to audible into goal line can really irk opponents.

This out of Cinncy Spread PB would be awesome; thanks for the heads up.

Ya I think there are just too many negatives to bother, especially since many people run tts

Agreed. I was doing the same. Was fun for a few days And that 63 catch didn’t matter. Now I’m back to Kelce and the duke at te. And have Randy, Calvin(had him earlier, pulled him again and decided to throw him back on the squad for a little) and the new zay flowers to try out as the new 3. Flowers has been real nice for an 88 And breaks a ton of tackles with such a low btk.

he's been solid, before him had OBJ with +1 boosts, liked OBJ better (both 92 SPD), moving to Desean soon with 25 Jets/Skins

There are some tall/fast TEs that are great receivers. I'm considering running three of them in my WR spots. Is this crazy?

Edit: So far the big issues I can think of are chems (obviously) AGI/COD, BTK, and Route Running.

Not me, but i lost to someone who did this. It was 28-14 after 1 quarter. It's extremely broken if you run it right.
