Allow round-by-round pre-draft strategy for auto draft
It would be helpful if we could set up a pre-draft strategy for auto draft, specifically regarding which position we want to draft in each round of the draft. For example, if I want to draft a RB in round 1, a WR in round 2, a QB in round 3, a TE in round 4, etc., I would like to be able to arrange my auto draft strategy to make sure that the auto-draft chooses my desired position for each round.

Scoring - Position specific scoring categories
This scoring setting change would allow commissioners to change the scoring value for common scoring categories for each position (QB/RB/WR/TE) individually. For example, a commissioner could make receptions 1 point for WRs and RBs but 2 points for TEs. Currently you can only change the scoring value for all positions at once.

Rosters/Lineups - Roster limits for positions.
This feature would allow commissioners to set the maximum and minimum number of players a team can roster at each position at a given time. For example, teams can have a maximum of 3 QBs on their roster or a team can have a minimum of 1 kicker. Currently there is no way to set the maximum or minimum number of players a team can roster at each position.

initial waiver wire rank for rolling list too valuable to base on nominating order
In standard draft leagues, it is the case that most players agree that an early pick in the draft is an advantage. Awarding places in the waiver queue in reverse draft order seems appropriate to provide some compensation to players who pick later in the first round.
For salary cap leagues, there is almost zero advantage to an early nomination. Awarding the valuable first waiver priority position just for nominating last is unbalanced.
For salary cap leagues, nominating and bidding on the top waiver slots would be a way of making it fair.

Drafts - Allow commissioner to make selections for other teams during a live draft.
This draft feature would allow commissioners to make selections for other teams when enabled. For example, if someone were to lose connection to the draft but was able to contact the commissioner, they could have the commissioner make the selection for them. Currently the commissioner can not make selections for other teams.

Scoring - Team Position Points
This scoring setting credits all points scored by a specific position on an NFL team to the manager who rosters them. Most commonly, team QBs are used in this scenario. For example, if Russell Wilson gets hurt, the team that started him would get the points from Geno Smith for the rest of the game. Currently we don't offer this setting.

Draft Grades
The draft grades are based on projected scoring. Some teams decide to only draft one QB, TE, K and DEF at the time of the draft - than fill in as needed during bye weeks. Yahoo's draft grades penalizes those teams - and assumes that team will score zero points during those bye weeks.
A better way to grade drafts is to fix that issue. Teams with no qb on a bye week will pick one up - but maybe by having an extra RB on the squad in the early weeks of the season will benefit the team…

Auto-substitute for Injured Players During a Game
Add an option to allow players on your bench to be automatically inserted into a lineup if the starter gets injured in a game if they are eligible for that position.
This can be done through a pregame selection about who you want auto-subbed if multiple bench players are eligible for the same position . Or it can be done on some sort of rankings or the best season stats.

I would like to see the draft order set at least a week or two ahead of the draft.
If you set the draft order a couple of weeks or more ahead of the draft, we wouldn't have to waste time mock drafting from every position to get an idea of who is going where. In the real world teams know months in advance what their draft position is. Why not set the order as soon as the league is full?
Hi Donna,
Thanks for your feedback.
We will pass along your feedback to our product team.
If you create a Private League, you will have the ability as the commissioner to randomize the draft weeks ahead of time or set a custom draft order.
Thanks,

Draft analysis
I’ve enjoyed in the past, unless it’s still planned, the draft grades for each team, projected W/L record , and place in standings. Rosters change, but I try to prove the experts wrong , in a fun way
This feature will be making a return, it just hasn't been launched yet for this year.
