MFL Position Changes for True Position Leagues

MyFantasyLeague (MFL) has opened up their 2020 league site, and that means it is time for True Position leagues to review all the custom position players and make sure everything is set up properly for the coming season.

As a quick review, True Position refers to an IDP format which groups players into 5 groups - defensive interior linemen (DI), edge players (EDR), stack or off-ball linebackers (LB), cornerbacks (CB), and safeties (S). NFL teams that designate their players with a 3-4 base list their edge rushers as LBs, and 2/3 of their defensive interior linemen (meaning they line up inside of the offensive tackle for a majority of their snaps), as DE.  True Position leagues correctly group players by their on-field role rather than by what moniker an NFL team uses.

Unfortunately, only ESPN currently allows for the DI and EDR positions.  Other league hosting services have hinted about supporting these positions, but have yet to do so.

MFL at least allows the ability to change a player's position in your league.  I thus change all the 3-4 DEs to DTs to group them properly with the 4-3 DTs; and change the 3-4 OLBs to DEs to group them properly with the other Edge players (or 4-3 DEs). 

So here are the custom position changes necessary to convert your MFL IDP league into one using True Position -
