STOP critiquing draft results of us players at the start of the season
It's not as if you know what you're talking about. I had 12 teams last season and they all received an F or D after my draft. 6 of those teams were 3rd or better. With 1 champion and 1 second place. I had similar results the year before. You were just as insulting and wrong about those drafts. You being first insulting, then being wrong, is getting old. I never even use the services you peddle. Why would I when you are so wrong? I look forward to taking advantage of your poor rankings. You guys take too many…

Draft dates & times ?
Why must I pick my draft date and time when I pay, when drafting does not start until almost June and runs thru July ? I planning on buying 4 or 5 fantasy football teams, can the dates be changed before the picked date ? And why are there only 1 or 2 times available for each date..........looking forward to playing, I am switching from Fantrax,,,it takes me time to get used to new sites......
Hello,
When joining a Public Prize League on Yahoo, you must pick a league by the draft date/time and entry fee. Dates are not changed for the available leagues.
Additional dates/times will be added, but if there is a specific date/time that you are looking for that you don't see, you can reach out through the sports tab at help.yahoo.com to provide that information.

Fix Draft Board View during on-line drafts with pick trades and 3rd round reversal.
Our drafting managers have complained that the DRAFT BOARD view does not present a clear, linear view of how the draft picks are displaying in the order they're being made.
This happens during the real-time draft, not necessarily looking at the screen after draft ends.
Hey Steve,
Thanks for your feedback. We will pass along your feedback to our draft team to look into this further.

THIRD ROUND REVERSAL should be a standard option for snake draft orders
Leagues should be able to randomize their draft order, including reversing the order at the start of the third round and then snaking until the last pick.
Hi Steve,
A commissioner can use their tools to randomize the draft order now, after the team list has been finalized. Once randomized, you can copy down the order and use the tools to create a custom draft order to set up a 3rd round reversal.

Offer balanced schedule options for leagues with divisions
It's more fair to organize schedules the same for all teams in two and three division leagues.
10 team league, two 5-team divisions...Play other division 1X, same division 2X = 5 + 8 = 13 week season.
12 team league, three 4-team divisions...Play other divisions 1X, same division 2X = 8 + 6 = 14 week season.
These balanced schedules should be default options.
BETTER STILL, how about offering the option to play every team in the league EVERY week? This is just a variation of the idea of playing versus the Median score from that week's games. But it's…
Hey Steve,
In Yahoo Fantasy Head-to-Head Categories, Points or One Win leagues, the schedule for each team to compete against each other is set automatically. It does try to take into account if the league uses divisions to create an even schedule. As commissioner, you're able to adjust the schedule to suit your league's needs; https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN6320.html.

Positional limits throughout the season
Last season in our fantasy football season for league 4556 (which I'm the commissioner) and league 3608 (which I'm a participant but the commissioner agrees with what I'm talking to you about) both league suffered from hoarding of players on the rosters (QB's-RB's-WR's and TE's) which made the league difficult when it cam to trying to improve ones team through the waiver process. Both myself and the commissioner of league 3608 set positional limits this season only to find out they will only apply to the drafting process, thus, hoarding can occur once again.
This really defeats the purpose of…Hi Frank,

OFFER 12 TEAM PRIZE LEAGUES
Good evening,
I'm reaching out to ask if you can please start offering 12 team prize leagues for fantasy football season.
Keep everything else the same, but please allow the option to join a 12 team league.
10 team leagues are fun, but it puts WAY less emphasis on drafting and roster management. Everyone has stacked rosters, on paper, after the draft is over.
If we truly want a competitive experience, 12 teams has been the sweet spot for years now. I'm finally reaching out to see if this can be implemented for the upcoming season.
Thank you,

Bring back the Draft Pick Grid in The Pop-Down Menu
A few years ago there was an easily accessible tab under the draft pop down menu that showed the draft pick grid and the owners of the draft picks for leagues that trade picks. You removed that tab, the only way I have been able to find it is during the commissioner settings in settings up the draft before the season. Will you please bring back the draft pick grid for fantasy hockey.
Hi Addison,
On the desktop or mobile website, you can hover of the Draft tab and then select the option for Draft Picks.
The Draft Picks page will allow you to see the draft picks for teams for the current season and next season.

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…

Increase max buy in for custom leagues
It’s been capped at $250 buy in for 12 man league for like half a decade. Between inflation and just it generally being limiting anyway, an increase is long overdue. Any increase is appreciated, but going up to $500 would be great. Over the last few years I’ve been commissioner on multiple leagues and every year it gets harder to stick with yahoo simply because of this hard cap. Please don’t make me leave yahoo.

Scoring and Scheduling Format
Please consider going back to the previous format for the basketball schedules. It was a much better in the format showing the overall season record for each team as well as the rankings. It just seemed to be a more user friendly and an appealing look with good information.

Add new "Two NFL Teams only league format -It is fun
I don't know if you have access to one of my league titled "2 NFL teams" (ID 87656), but if you do, check it out. I/We self-manage the use of add-on rules to where each manager owns the rights to the players from just two NFL teams. Here is how it works - A) works best with 10 managers, but can use 12 B) Off-line snake draft, just two rounds C) Each round consists of drafting a Team DEF D) Commissioner manually puts each managers drafted Team DEF on the respective rosters E) Managers then can ONLY select players for…
