Positional Versatility Matters More Than Ever In NFL | The Draft Network

From Cordarrelle Patterson, Alvin Kamara, and Deebo Samuel on the offensive side of the ball, to the Micah Parsons and Derwin James’ of the world aligning opposite, versatility has remained king in the NFL. While prior days of NFL football saw players work at one spot, and one spot only at times, for an entire career, the onus on players to wear multiple hats while maintaining a high level of production has continued to diversify the game as we know it today.

That versatility makes the game uniquely intriguing from a schematic standpoint, but nightmarish for defenses, as guys like Samuel and Patterson have become the poster child for future Weapon Xs set to shoulder an offensive workload. It’s truly become a fascinating sight around the league as just a handful of seasons ago, a wideout in the backfield was considered a decoy, not someone touting the rock for 15 times a game. A running back flexed out to the boundary was a wasted body in space, not in a spot as the hot read on advantageous downs. It just didn’t happen, and these unique alignments and deployment of talent have stemmed, at some capacity, into every position within the hashes.
