It's ok to change players positions I think. Remember Billy Ocean changed from full back to a good striker. And Robbie turner did the opposite. Who in your opinion could play up front and be better than what we have already.
Two names only.

GK Nichols - Nothing goes in the net when he's in the box
RB A can of Red Bull, brings energy and can also play as a RWB coz it gives you wings.
CB Broadbent coz it's the only way to keep his family quiet.
CB Craig coz he's from London and London is the most important (and loudest, and dirtiest to be fair) centre.
LB Martin, should have been left back in Stevenage.
RM Bennett. He flatters to deceive, apparently, so when he's running past the East Stand he can tell my wife she looks good in that.
CM Lines. For Pens.
CM Sincs. Coz we play better with ten men.
LM Rodman. Coz I haven't seen him do anything yet.
9 Leads. So he can find out what it's like trying to get on the end of a load of sh** crosses.
10 OC. If you can't get the strikers in the box, then pick a striker who's in range when he gets it in his own half.
Edit: looks like I didn't read the question properly.

It's a myth that Saunders was a full-back before joining us.... He actually scored around 20 goals one season for Stoke In the second tier, but towards the end of his time there he was deemed surplus and did make some full-back appearances....

His goal record for Stoke was ok. He was sidelined and in the reserves and did play sometimes as a RB, but like you said, most of his career he was a striker. There is a point in there though... Finding talent that is out of favour or can be adapted. A better example might be jocky going from a winger to a full back (and playing like a wing back) and Gareth Taylor from centre back to centre forward. |

I can't argue with those examples mate, all I can think of are the bad examples: Virgo-striker, Anthony-left mid, Regan-right mid, riordan-not quite sure as It didn't really seem all that clear at the time.... |

Riordan was painful, utterly painful. Especially for someone who is (something like...) the third highest ever scorer in the Scottish top division. |

Gareth Taylor started as CB, John Ward put him along side Marcus Stewart, really effective striker, of course Rovers sold him.

Surely DC should take Penalties at least he would chop and change with each one. |

Keith Curle started off as a winger! I saw Keith as a 17 year old for the youth team as a winger -- Problem for him is we had a certain Micky Barrett in the first team at the time. |

Keith Curle started off as a winger! Yes my first visit to the Den, and I went in to the home end by mistake, but he was very quick out on the right |
