tevin coleman has been moved to IR but you have not made that option available for owners and still have him listed as doubtful.

Hi Doug,
Thanks for reaching out.
A player’s injury designation is determined by out data provider. Once a team officially rules the player out for the game week or moves them to the IR, our data provider will update the status which will then update in our game.
At this time, Coleman has been updated to a designation of Out and is eligible for the IR roster spot in leagues.
Thanks,

Our errant commissioner?
In our Yahoo league, our league commissioner is denying teams the right to place NFL IR listed players into our two IR roster spots as indicated in our "settings". What can be done to allow us to play this fantasy game as Yahoo has intended?

Waivers
Why are the waivers performed at different times in different leagues? Can't there be a set time for all league waivers to be done?
Hi Larry,
Thanks for the feedback.
Waivers begin processing in leagues at 12AM PT. Due to the large number of waivers processed across our platform, there can be a delay in leagues before these waivers are posted so you will see waivers listed in the league transactions at different times for leagues.
Thanks,

Chris Godwin was out this week but you've taken away the out designation. Leave it there until after the waiver period!
If a player is listed as out for the week, he should stay that way until the following Thursday when they update the injury reports. If a player was out on Sunday he shouldn't be not listed as out after the games start which is what happened with Chris Godwin.
Hi Matthew,
Thanks for the feedback.
Player injury designations are determined by our data provider and update at the beginning of each week for player’s who are not listed on the IR.
The player will need to be officially ruled out for that week by their respective team. At that time our data provider will update the player’s designation which will then update in our game.
Thanks,

League I joined #847737
I have entered the draft, the draft was paused and reset numerous times by the comissioner. I beleive this is a scam or way to make people quit and be set on autodraft due to leaving and/or just giving up.
League number #847737.Even into the chat for the draft, 2 players who didnt pay and resonsible for the resets continue to mock everyone else as we all witness this mayham. The league needs to be refunded completely and disbanded. it is unfair to those of us who are available and held up on our time. having the draft paused…

League Roster - Grid View
Look how CBS has a Grid View for rosters. You can see almost the entire league in one big page on the website. This makes it way easier to plan out trade opportunities, and quickly see the needs of another team. Actually, you can see the needs of multiple teams at the same time. Should be quick and easy to make on the site, and would be a huge quality of life improvement for people trying to plan a trade. Left axis is team name, top axis is position, and then players fill in like a spreadsheet. And you can…
Thank you for reaching out with this feedback, we appreciate it! I’ve relayed this to our product and design team to look into.

y is Antoine Winfield rated so high on the projections as a Safety? It makes no sense is
There is something wierd about the Antoine Winfield projections
in FF IDP league for play for a DB. Its messing up the Drafts and Waiver activity.
How can a safety be projected to score more than a qb?Hi Taylor,
Thanks for the feedback.
We will bring this player to the attention of our product team so they can reach out to our data provider to look into his projections.
You can also check your league’s scoring settings for IDP players as high point values can lead to inflated projected points.
Thanks,

It's pointless to not allow me to update keepers less than an hour before the draft.
Why is it so hard to give commissioners full autonomy?
This is because the league goes into draft state. You can reset the draft during it this year, make your changes and reschedule.

we need an option to allow keeper leagues to follow the pre draft sequence before defaulting to your autodraft logic to balance teams.
I have an all keeper league. We need an option to allow keeper leagues to follow the pre draft sequence before defaulting to your autodraft logic to balance teams. The way it is now when we autodraft Yahoo overrides the predraft sequence and owners are not getting the players they want and were avaible at the time in the draft. We want an option for Yahoo to follow the pre draft list first and pick the available players regardless of position. Then when the list exhausted Yahoo can default to its autodraft logic. The current method makes it impossible to…
Thanks for your feedback, I will pass that along to our engineering team for review.

Predraft doesn't work correctly. It keeps putting my loaded players back to default even after I have saved them.
First off. I have not been able to get anybody to help me with my problem! On numerous occasions I have loaded my players from you Default Player Rankings into my Preferred Players list, only to have to periodically jump back into the Default Player Rankings even after I have saved. You need more ways of asking the right questions in your sports fantasy help.

New Kicker Scoring - add ability to set a 'floor' of 3 pts for any field goal less than 30 yards
New Kicker Scoring (fractional points per yard) - add ability to set a 'floor' of 3 pts for any field goal less than 30 yards.
3 pts is still 3 pts, so if a kicker gets a 17 yard field goal, I would like to be able to ensure they get a minimum 3 pts. BUT, I like the scaled scoring for a 49 yard field goal vs a 41 yard field goal.
IF you could marry the two scoring forms with the addition of a 3pt floor, it would be perfect.

Decimal scoring for recieving/rushing yards
Like ESPN, you can have 0.9 points if you're guy has 9 yards receiving or rushing. Instead of having to get a whole 10 yards. To get one point. Also QBs should have decimal points as well like 0.04 points per yard and say you had 20 passing yards you would have 0.8 points. I would switch to your site if you had those simple things that another huge platform uses. You guys have a lot of other great features but a true decimal scoring system is what's truly lacking. Hope to see these changes soon.
Hello Robert,
Thank you for providing your feedback.
The decimal scoring option you have noted is available in Yahoo Fantasy as this is the default scoring system. If you are in a Private League and don’t see this type of scoring, you just have to ensure your settings are enabled to use fractional scoring.
Thanks,

Allow commissioners to retroactively edit W-L-T records and/or matchups
Allow commissioners to retroactively edit W-L-T records or change matchups. I'm in a league where some weeks, we like to do traditional H2H, and some weeks we like to award Ws to the top six scoring teams and Ls to the bottom six scoring teams. This would give commissioners more flexibility with different formats and the ability to introduce fun twists.
Hi Zachary,
Thank you for your feedback.
Your suggestion has been provided to our product team.
Since a commissioner can only edit the schedule until 11:59PM PT the night before the first game of the week, if you do want to have the schedule updated so the top 6 scoring teams get wins over the lowest 6 scoring teams, you can reach out at help.yahoo.com and we can edit the schedule retroactively for you.
Thanks,
