Can we get a max players position like we have in other fantasy games?
ex: a team can't exceed 2 QB's
4th ranked -
there should be a way to have Team QB's in yahoo fantasy rather than just individual QB's.
when your quarterback goes down in the first quarter you should be able to get your backup qb's points. this doesnt change the dynamic of drafting a cam newton. its the same thing just gives everyone a fair chance week to week when a qb goes down.

Ability to Customize the IR Eligibility Designation
Right now the IR designation is Yahoo default only where players eligible are IR, PUP or Out. I would like the ability to customize who is eligible for this designation. In our league do not include players listed as "Out" and we do include players that are listed as "SUSP". We now have to manually police this. If the commissioner can customize the IR designation then we could do this systemically. Please add this functionality for 2017!

Punters
Please add Punters! There are many interesting statistics that we can add to having a punter as an option for a private league that would make it a lot more fun to play! I would be happy to give it a test run for our league and give feedback!

Taysom Hill should have a broad positional eligibility (WR, TE, etc)
Taysom Hill of the New Orleans Saints is being lined up all over the place, like the college "athlete" position. He's taking snaps each game at QB, WR, and TE (and ST) but his only positional eligibility right now is QB. He's running routes, blocking, returning kicks, playing holder, covering kicks, and more. He should have WR and TE eligibility.

Allow any player affected by Covid to be put on IR
All players affected by Covid should have a designation that allows them to be put on IR. For example this week the Titans and Steelers game is PPD and no scoring will count in week 4. Everyone on those teams should be available to be put on IR for the week.

Duke Johnson should be WR eligible
Duke Johnson should be WR eligible. Prior to the start of the season the coach said they were going to use him primarily in the passing game. Then week 1 plays all 50 of his snaps at receiver with 0 carries. He should be a WR, they clearly don't view him as an RB since he didn't even take the backup RB snaps. Should make the change.

Change Players Status Postponed to Out (Covid-19 Related)
We need to change the status of all players related to Covid-19 as "Out" Status so that manager can move those players to IR spot.
209th rankedThank you for reaching out with this suggestion. We’re exploring options to help accommodate this situation and apologize for the hassle this may be causing.

Customize IR Slot
Please allow us to customize IR slot.
As commissioner, I'd like to be able to only allow IR (Injured Reserve), O (Out) and PUP (Physically Unable to Perform) designations for that slot.
Personally, I don't think NA (Not Active), P (Probable), Q (Questionable) and Suspended (SUSP) should be used, but make that customizable so folks can allow it if they prefer.

Idp leagues
I would like for there to be flex idp spots just like there are for offense. I understand there is a d, for everything, but why can't there be hybrids? Dl/db lb/dl db/lb? To make idp good, it has to be like offense

Teddy Bridgewater was just switched from "Out" to "Inactive" despite being placed on PUP.
There is evidently an error in the way you update your injury status. Teddy Bridgewater had been listed as "Out" through the entire off-season until he was put on PUP, and then his status changed to "Inactive" which is normally saved for players not on an active roster.
137th rankedThanks for reporting this, guys. Our engineering team is working to resolve.

Tyreek Hill
Tyreek Hill should be listed as a RB/WR. Last season he had 24 rushing attempts for $250+ yards and 3 touchdowns. He was the third down running back for Kansas City and should be featured more in the backfield this year.

Theo Riddick has taken over the slot Wr position with the trade of Golden Tate
Riddick should be able to list at WR

Out players stay Out until the NFL injury updates
There should be a presumption that an injured player out in Week X will still be out in Week X+1 unless and until the team issues a Game Status report (Friday before a Sunday game) clarifying whether the player is something other than Out.

For your defaul league create a flex position and drop the number of Wr's to 2 from 3.
Yahoo really needs to drop the 3rd WR position and make it a flex. Players would be free to utilize a WR, RB or TE for this role. This would bring the Yahoo experience close to the ESPN format which has been so popular over the years.

Vic Beasley should have DE eligibility
Vic Beasley should have DE eligibility. The Falcons announced he was moving back to DE this season and he's listed as a DE on their depth chart.
153rd ranked -
Ty Montgomery should have WR eligibility
Ty Montgomery should have WR eligibility for 2017. Against the Seahawks, he wore jersey number 88, a number reserved for WRs or TEs and ineligible for RBs. Though he may be taking snaps out of the backfield, Yahoo cannot deny that he is a WR as indicated by his jersey eligibility.

NA roster spot to cover IR, SUSP., INJ, PUP, inactive etc.
NA spot would cover ALL misc reasons of unavailability. IR, PUP, etc. etc. Replace it as the icon or make the NA spot able to accept all the listed attachments.

Make Tarik Cohen a RB/WR
I believe Tarik Cohen should be listed as a RB/WR based on how he is used in the new Bears offense.
https://www.4for4.com/fantasy-football/news/bears-beat-tarik-cohen-more-rbwr
200th rankedHey Allen, we’ll monitor this over the course of the season to see if Cohen should gain WR eligibility.
Good luck this season!
