Travis Hunter Position Classification
Greetings, The classification of Travis Hunter, as both a WR and CB, is causing heart ache within our league. A manager had drafted him and will be playing him as a defensive player. However, it is most likely that he will be playing on the offensive side of the ball. It gives that manager that drafted him a competitive advantage where one was not intended. It is an anomaly for certain, I am requesting that since he will be played as a WR, that his classification within the league be changed to WR, only. I am certain that this is…

Expanded Consolation Bracket, 2 Week Champions Bracket
This idea is for a 12 team league, but could work in 1 team leagues. I would like to have an option for a championship bracket with the top 4 teams and 2-week matchups along with a consolation bracket with 1-week matchups for the remaining 8 teams. In a 12 team league, the playoffs would last 4 weeks. The top 4 seeds in the championship bracket play out as usual with the winners of the 1st matchups playing for a championship in the last 2 weeks. Here’s where it gets tricky: I would want the losers of the first championship…

Guillotine League "Playoffs"
We appreciate you launching a guillotine league. We were doing it manually for the 7 prior years. For next year, it would be great if you could add a "playoff" feature. That is, chopped players are not available for the last few weeks. You can still do free agent pickups of non-rostered players, but the chopped team's players are locked. We do this for the last 3 games. So the last team available is the 5th place team, we lock down the 4th and the 3rd place rosters. Thanks for considering.

Total up the weekly points for non-playoff teams, please.
We give a points championship for all weeks, even for teams that did not make the playoffs.
I have to go tally the points for those teams by hand.
By hand!

New scoring bonus tier
New tiers should be added for receivers that go above 200 receiving yards. 100 yards tiggers 3 additional points. So if a receiver hits 200 yards bonus should increase to 6. The same should be considered for QB's that hit above 400 passing yards which should tigger double bonus of 6. At the moment there are no rewards for going above 200 receiving yards or >400 passing yards. This would add more value whether through the regular season or playoff time.
Thank you for reaching out regarding bonuses in fantasy football. Commissioners of private leagues do have the ability to use up to 3 bonuses for each type of yardage (passing, rushing, receiving). They can set a bonus for 100 receiving yards and set a bonus for 200 receiving yards as well like you mentioned. They can set a bonus for 400 passing yards too.

Ranking Display
When we see the results every week, our displayed rankings should reflect the rankings during the week the matchups occur. For example, if my ranking during week 3 was 1st, but my current ranking is 3rd, when I look back at my week 3 results, it should show me at 1st instead of 3rd. That’s how college rankings work when we look back at past results so it makes sense to be that way for fantasy sports.

Draft board pop out
Make a setting so that the draft board (or any specific feature) can be popped out and open on two different windows. Would be able to watch the draft board and the player list at the same time.

Celing / Floor search
I mentioned this for the High Score basketball, where I feel it is a neccessity, but I think you should be able to search for players' ceiling and floor scores under the PLAYERS tab when searching for players to add to your roster. It should be in the drop down tabs as a sort item. For example, its the playoffs in fantasy football and I would like to search for the free agent tight end that has scored the highest in a single week this season, because I am looking for blowup potential in a matchup where I am the…

Get rid of chat in fantasy sports
The chat used in fantasy sports is a joke. A few years ago, you took a notes section away which was a big mistake. Chat is unfriendly and isn't being used much. With a baseball league I am in, following the same path of filters, I have found two different sets of baseball chat. I am not able to consistently find the same one. Please bring back what you took away. And using the email league option, which I have been using instead of chat so that everyone can see it, a reply to such email does not come through.…

Lock non-playoff team rosters
I'm in a Prize League and the non-playoff teams are making transactions this week during the playoffs....this opens the door for cheating and collusion. Allow them to change their lineups but not access Waivers or Free agents.

League Settings
In the league I'm in the waiver setting is set to "rolling list based on standings" and it also locks eliminated teams, so the league I'm in I got into the playoffs as the last seed so I assumed that I would have first priority in waivers each week. However once playoffs start it only goes to a rolling priority, but it doesn't say that anywhere in the settings. It would be great if we could get something in the settings informing users that waiver settings change for the playoffs and it's based on a rolling list instead of standings

Stop changing projections. Make it possible to hide your analysts' projections. They are never right, and they prevent trades.
Thank you for your feedback regarding projections changing. Fantasy football projections are powered by multiple industry-leading data providers. Consensus projections integrate data from each of our providers so projections will change when any of our data providers update their projections.

Separate special teams & defense into two separate roster spots
The only thing I am not a fan of in the scoring system is the concept of a bad defensive performance being potentially boosted by a rare and somewhat random luck punt/kick return touchdown.
My suggestion is why don’t we separate special teams & defense into two different roster spots; for example, if I think Pittsburgh’s defense is really good but their special teams is not so good, I should be able to select Pittsburgh’s defense for only defense and a different team’s special teams unit for only special teams, such as maybe Buffalo.
Here’s an example of what I…

Stat Correction for Eagles Defense Week 14
Eagles DEF should only have 1 Fumble Recovery in week 14. The Jalen Hurts fumble recovery should not count as the Eagles did not finish the play with possession of the ball. A stat correction is needed.
Precedent was set in Week 5 when the Tennessee Titans defense was not awarded a fumble recovery when Tyler Lockett recovered a fumble after the Arizona defensive player fumbled the ball following an interception. It's the same scenario as the Eagles game.
Do the right thing and apply a stat correction to the Eagles defense week 14 to remove 1 fumble recovery from…Hello Ryan,

Add the option for Commissioners of private leagues to designate lineup slots for Return Yards Only.
The NFL has significantly changed the rules and procedures for punt and kick returns, effectively making these ST plays much more exciting and extremely relevant to the outcome of each game. Fun! Except right now, we can only collect return yards if we put returners in our WR/RB/CB slot or related depending on their position. It would be great if we could expand our private league to have a returns slot so that only a player in that slot (of any actual position) can gain return yards.
ST play has become more and more important in actual NFL games so…
