(draft at) http://sdopending.appspot.com/namedPosition

... this allows URL, which might be from some more specialised
sporting standards, or from generic large datasets like
Wikipedia/Wikidata/DBpedia/Freebase.

e.g. http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q622747  "position in gridiron football"
instance of  http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q694589 "American football
position" (which has Freebase IDs etc)

Whereas URLs as values for 'name' aren't generally encouraged...
