Continuous waivers with free agency period Sunday through Monday
Continuous waivers with free agency period Sunday through Monday. There's just so much information regarding injuries that comes out on Sunday, some of which is impossible to prepare for. This would be the perfect solution!

continuous waivers - players who have played shouldn't run until Tuesday
We used to do it with the game-time to Tuesday option with free agency during the week. We found that it ended up being a race to your phone midweek if there was news of injury, so we decided to switch it to continuous waivers this year. It would be nice to have players who played to process waivers on tuesday night while those who haven't played stay on the daily waiver routine. Is this a feature Yahoo would be willing to add? I know Sleeper has this capability.

Give kickers points for successful onside kicks!
Kickers should be awarded for their clutch onside kicking abilities, if recovered of course ;)

Be able to trade amongst IR spots
Allow trades between players who are in the designated IR spot. If I want to trade my injury reserve player for another I shouldn't have to make any cuts or further management to my team to be able to do so.
Example:
Current system- Trade IR Paris Campbell for IR Sterling Shepherd. Requires both managers to cut a bench player. OR trade IR Campbell and starting player for IR Shepherd and starting player. STILL requires both players to cut a bench spot.Should be IR for IR and done.

Mock draft
We wait 2:30 for Mock Managers to fill, then we wait another 2:30 for Mock draft to start. When participants are full, we should start :30 seconds after NOT 2:30...tnx

fantasy football widget
With the new IOS update, I think a yahoo fantasy football widget would be really cool. Having your weekly score for a smaller widget, and you matchup score for a bigger one would be awesome. Being able to see my score on my hone screen would be a great improvement. I hope you can make this idea happen!

Hire IDP-specific experts/score projectors
Defensive player projections and rankings need a lot of work. Hire some people who know what they're doing in that area. If your product were better, maybe more people would want to play in IDP leagues

Player profile pop-up window sometimes glitches when trying to close it on roster and player search pages
When I try to close the player profile pop-up window (which needs a redesign/added info) within the roster and player search pages, it sometimes sends me to the top of the page and the window remains open. This glitch has existed for years

Ability to pause/rewind Fearless Forecast videos
I go to read a player’s overview for the week and what do I get? I end up missing part of the Fearless Forecast video (which automatically plays) and can’t rewatch it without sitting through the rest of it, only to watch it again. Don’t get me wrong, the Fearless Forecast videos are pretty helpful! But it would be nice to be able to pause/rewind them when need be.

Make the defensive yardage scoring setting more precise
Under scoring settings in commish tools> defensive yardage, make the yardage scoring settings less "chunky" for commissioners. I plan to make this scoring setting HEAVILY INFLUENTIAL next year in my league and need the setting to be less "chunky" and more precise, just like the rest of the scoring (like wr, rbs, qb scoring settings).
Additionally, I would like the same to be done for points allowed by defenses. Points allowed by defenses is "doled out" in chunks as well in commish tools. Why not make these settings precise like all the other settings in commish tools? (wrs, rbs, qbs).

Potential Minor Bug/Defect with 'Note To Self' section
Not sure where else to provide this feedback; I did see the note advising: "If you need assistance of any kind, please visit our self-paced help on our help site. This forum is not monitored for any support-related issues."
But the 'Contact Us' Help site appears to cost money/require a subscription to even provide feedback?: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/fantasy-football/contacting-yahoo-customer-support-sln26180.html
I stumbled across what appears to be a bug/defect with 'Note To Self' functionality in https://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/ under 'My Team' tab -> 'Note To Self'
I am using:

Stat Tracker - TOUCHDOWN display
When a team scores, I hate the way it simply says TOUCHDOWN and the team name as, unlike previous years, that stays on the screen until the scoring team kick off. Never mind saying how they scored the touchdown and who scored it which is the most important in fantasy. Then no mention of if they made/missed the extra point, or went for 2.... a huge fail. Same with Field Goals... How long was it etc... I dont like having to dig to find that information when it should be readily available. This needs to be fixed IMMEDIATELY!

More Filters To Find Custom Leagues
It would be helpful to have more filters to search for leagues of interest on this page - https://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/reg/joinleague/private.
Filters such as # of bench players, league fees, payouts, IDPs to name a few.

2019 Draft Results Not Accessible
I posted this yesterday and AH from Yahoo Customer Support recommended writing help.yahoo.com - a function which also doesn't work, despite my numerous attempts. Please contact engineering support to fix this problem...thanks!
Last season's (2019) draft results are no longer accessible. When you go to your league settings and click the drop down menu to view "2019", and then go to DRAFT RESULTS, an error appears. You are unable to view draft results.
However, if you go back in time to 2018...2017, etc., the results are visable.
Having access to the 2019 draft results is vital to our league (19…

Guy in my pay league has two teams. How is that fair?
899th rankedHey Scott,
Thank you for providing feedback.
Could you provide the teams that you are reporting are managed by the same manager? Once this has been provided we can investigate this further for you.

Set up a Reserved/COVID function so that players lost to corona virus can be kept on roster without penalty.
Prepare for corona effects by setting up a specific DL for players sidelined. The idea is to allow teams to maintain rosters without being penalized by the random nature of the disease. Thus, Reserve/COVID players would not count against roster size.
97th rankedThis is something our product and engineering team is investigating for the upcoming season. No determination has been made yet on whether it will be added though.

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.
