Optional "Bye-Week" Roster Slot
Proposing a "bye week" roster slot that works like an IR slot.
Players would only be eligible for this slot when they're on a bye week and would have to come off upon completion of the bye week. This frees up a roster spot for the user.
Reason: Having to burn a roster or potentially even drop someone because they're on a bye isn't an objectively good thing and should be optional - bye weeks can penalize you for having too many good bench players and cause an unpleasant experience. There should be an option to stash bye week players…

Commissioner button not working
Renewed my League today, yay! BUT.... I click on the Commissioner button to change some settings, and it never loads and opens up, the blue circle just spins and spins.

Trading Auction Budget Money
Can there be a feature added to trade auction budget money for future seasons in auction keeper leagues. If you can trade picks in standard league I don't see why you can't trade draft budget money also.
117th rankedThank you for this feedback. We will look into this further.

IR spot
Why can you put anyone who is "OUT" in the IR spot??? You should have to be on the IR to be put in there. Like it used to be. Pretty simple concept. Why it changed to this is beyond me. Fix it please

Message Board degradation of functionality
The inability to post GIFs or images on the message board this year will force me to move my league to ESPN unless it is urgently addressed.

Exportable draft/team rosters
I realize that Yahoo cannot anticipate/account for all possible league setups. However, giving us a one-click setting to export (as csv and/or Excel format)
1) the previous year's draft
2) end-of-year rosters
Would cut down on a good bit of manual work that I (and surely other commissioners) have to undertake every season.For example, many keeper leagues have a cost associated with each keeper. While there some variations that are automated within the Yahoo management system, there are several that are not:
1) keepers are kept in the round they were originally drafted
2) keepers are kept in the…93rd ranked -
Bring back the "if you played everyone each week" stat in the weekly recaps
Bring back the "if you played everyone each week" stat in the weekly recaps. They were a good way to judge how well your team is doing and better than most stats in the "StatSmack"

Every Team Plays Every Team Every Week
n Yahoo's review of each week's game, Yahoo reports "If this team had played every team each week, its record would be ..."
That's interesting to read.
It would also be fun to play.
Just move it from the weekly review to the league's standings.
Then sit back and think about how much CPU and data storage is saved by not having to generate and store a league schedule for every league.88th ranked -
Option to commission/manage leagues you don't play in
Background - I have been managing my league using Yahoo for the past 6 years. In that time, the demand to be in my league became so popular amongst friends & coworkers (mainly because there's a trophy) that I eventually expanded into 2 12-man leagues (A & B). Unique Rules: You can only win the trophy in League A. The teams to make the playoffs (top 6 teams) in League B move into League A next season. The teams that don't make the playoffs (bottom 6) in League A drop down into League B next season.
Main Point - Since…88th ranked -

The new player note change today is horrible. Go back to the yellow and red for new notes. The blue for everything is bad.
Your players notes were great being yellow for recent, red for new, grey for nothing. The new update today where it is grey or blue is horrible because it is blue whether note was from earlier this week or just updated. Need to have a 3rd color so we don't miss newly updated news.

Can you please create a couple options for CFL football?
Possibly create a pickem CFL Pool involving a spread in some way and or a league head to head Pool involving drafting players the same as the current NFL league pool runs.

Please allow commissioners to link leagues (in same season)
I run the OklahomIraqis League (okiraqi.org), which Yahoo highlighted previously (http://www.okiraqi.org/uploads/3/4/9/2/3492896/yahoo-svg.png). We have three 14-team "conferences" that have their champions compete in Week 17 for an overall championship. There has been a lot of talk recently of moving to MyFantasyLeague.com due to the ability to have all three of our conferences (with separate player pools) under one league banner, with a Week 17 overall championship. Yahoo has been great to us since 2006 though, and I'm very loyal. I at least want the ability to "link" the three leagues under one league link so that everyone could easily…
81st rankedHey Justin, thanks very much for your feedback. We’re here to provide the best fantasy sports experience possible for you and your leaguemates. Linking leagues is not currently on our product roadmap, but I will pass the request to our product team.
Thanks for playing Yahoo Fantasy

Poll
Please add back the option to post polls on the website. It makes it very hard when trying to incorporate changes moving forward. I want to convert my league to a keeper league... but may have to switch to ESPN or another format if polls aren't enabled. This makes it extremely difficult for people with busy lives to coordinate.

Add Snaps Played to Stats
It would be great to get the Snaps Played on Offense / Defense. I get the info from the NFL Gamebooks but it would be a great way to use it with the stats to evaluate NFL players for future fantasy projections.

I do what's called Manager Efficiency Rating -- a percentage of points scored versus the points you could have scored with the right players
I do what's called Manager Efficiency Rating -- a percentage of points scored versus the points you could have scored if you had the "right" players in your lineup (the optimal). I also do what's called Strength of Team, which is simply a sum of a team's optimal points. With these two measures, you can analyze who has been good at inserting the right players into their lineups and whose team has had potential, but the manager can't get it right in terms of their lineup. It can identify who has been doing well despite not having the pieces on…

Make the Weather Forcast feature clickable instead of hover-over
I like the weather forecast available on each player... but could you make the feature clickable instead of hover-over? It's a small thing but when passing over the feature it will activate and sometimes becomes annoying.
