Waiver - Allow commissioner to use continuous waivers with custom free agent periods
This waiver setting would allow the commissioner to use 'Continuous' waivers but also be able to select days that all players are free agents. For example, the league uses continuous waivers (players always on waivers) and the waivers process each night but on Thursdays, Sundays, and Mondays all players will be free agents and be eligible to be picked up in the event a team needs a substitute.

Waivers taking too long to process through the week
After the initial waiver wire period that ends Wednesday morning, waivers take too long to process. Players that are released on Tuesday and picked up through waivers don't process until Friday. That means you can't pick up players or a team defense that plays Thursday night. When a player is released he should be processed in 24 hours.

All waivers should be by silent auction...
All leagues should have silent auction for free agency. The rolling waiver style can end up screwing the same team over and over. Let's say I'm 9th in waivers. So I'm getting the bottom of the barrel for that weeks waiver pickups. But then what happens is that I still end up with someone and then get sent right back to the bottom of the list so the following week I'm STILL getting my last selection. By using a silent auction system you allow EVERYONE to get any player they want so long as they are willing to pay for…

Should be able to randomize the waiver order before the season starts.
Waiver order currently goes in the reverse order that teams sign up for the league. As commissioner, I get the last waiver every year and with the auto renew system it’s the same waiver order every year to start. Waiver priority is too important to not be able to customize the order. I would either randomize it at the beginning of every season, or do reverse order of last years standings.

Award waiver claims first, then release all remaining players to free agents! Players locked with no claims..
Players are being locked in the waiver system even when they are not claimed by anyone. At 1am, most players that are not claimed move to free agents. This morning it kept several players, including Matt Bryant and Cameron Brate locked in the waiver system, even though no one claimed them. Then, apparently after waivers were awarded at 2:21am, they became free agents. It would be beneficial for all fantasy team owners if Yahoo would lock all players until waiver claims are awarded and then release all unclaimed players to free agency at the same time. Doing it in different…

Dez is a free agent not Dallas member
Dez Byrant is listed as a Dallas Cowboy even tho he is a free agant making him unavailable for pick up once Dallas game starts.

FAAB Transaction Bid Waiver Priority
Weekly waiver FAAB bids should not be automatically prioritized based on the bid amount. This has been posted before and addressed, yet the issue is unresolved. Please...allow the team managers to customize their priority preference in any order, regardless of the bid amount. This is a massive discrepancy that should be easily fixed.

No Waivers, For Monday night games in No Waivers league it does not let you add drop after Sunday night. We have no waiver for a reason
No Waivers, For Monday night games in No Waivers league it does not let you add drop after Sunday night. We have no waiver for a reason only time we have to wait and can't add drop right away is Monday? Not in the spirit of No Wivers

Drag and Drop Waiver Priority
The current use of drop down lists to order the waiver priority is cumbersome. A drag and drop interface would be much easier and faster.

Please make adding players for a Monday night game reflect in the current week, not next week.
I have a no waivers league. I want to add a player for tonight's MNF game, but when I try to add a player it is reflected on next week's schedule. I'm not trying to exchange a player that already played this week. I'm trying to exchange a player that was on my bench all week.
What if I have a questionable player going into Monday's game? What if I would like to trade him out on Monday before the game starts? Why do I need to exchange him on Sunday, before I know whether he's playing or not?

Reduced Waiver Period for TNF players
The rigid two-day waiver period for dropped players is annoying on the best days and a HUGE leak when it comes to TNF players.
Players dropped on Waiver Wire Wednesday should be addable if they are playing Thursday Night Football. Instead they are stuck on the waiver wire until Saturday which really means they can't be added until the following week.
Not sure if the best solution is reducing the Waiver window across the board or segregating TNF players, but this is a pretty silly restriction.

Allow Commissioner to change between weekly & FAAB waivers
Short version: Allow the commissioner to change between weekly & FAAB waiver formats.
Currently, Commissioners can change the weekly waiver options between continuous rolling waivers, reverse order of standings, and a reverse order of standings weekly rolling list that resets after each week. In order to change to a FAAB waiver format, the commissioner has to contact Yahoo support.
Then the commissioner can change between the different tie-break methods for FAAB. If the league wants to go back to weekly waivers, they have to contact Yahoo again.

Prioritize FAAB Transactions (not completed!)
This issue was already reported and marked as COMPLETED but is still a problem. Thank you user Mike (https://yahoo.uservoice.com/users/38597922-mike) for the excellent description of the issue.
"Yahoo, you need to enable owners to prioritize their FAAB transactions. Your current setup of processing an owner's highest bid over their lowest bid is an egregious mistake.
Take the following example:
Owner A wants to drop Adrian Peterson for Matt Asiata with a bid of $8.
Owner A also wants to drop Adrian Peterson for Jerick McKinnon with a bid of $2.Let's say Owner A would actually prefer the…
