Default Zeek, to be honest...

I would not even allow it on kickers or QBs. Lead Tape should suffice.

They are equal players to every other player. If the QB shake in the pocket with lead tape on him, he just got happy feet. If the kicker shakes, he's just a little scary!

But really, this is what has not been discussed for many years with stationary figures with magnets.

On QBs, even if you put him 15 yards behind the line of scrimmage and a defensive team has a bull rusher who is being blocked by an o-lineman right into the QB. Once the O-lineman is forced back into the QB, the DL can not penetrate anymore because of the force of the magnet. That stops a potential "sack situation". Guys hide behind the stationary argument (at least in the DFW) so just having wisdom and knowing when someone trying to run a game on me, I just want to point this out.

Lead tape should be used on every player or even putty. In the CBSMF, we will have a magnet test to ensure that magnets are not being used in any manner.
