I would personally like to see this eliminated all together. If the team has them labeled as a LB, that is what they should be here.

I have a problem with the fact that players like Terrell Suggs, Elvis Dumervil and Tamba Hali have this label. If it is going to be this way for them, it needs to be this way for all of the 3-4 linebackers that play the same way. DeMarcus Ware, James Harrison and even Clay Matthews come to mind as a few linebackers that primarily rush the quarterback. There are a lot more of them but these are just a few examples. With so many NFL teams going to the 3-4 defense, there will be many more in the future.

I am trying to set up a very detailed scoring system here on FleaFlicker, that is set up using different stat multipliers for each position. This DL/LB position really limits what I can do with the stat categories and keep everything balanced.

Basically it seems like it would be an easier fix for FleaFlicker to just eliminate, or at least give the commissioner of the league the option to change this DL/LB labeling. The players position should match whatever the NFL teams call them.
