Dynasty/Keepers - Leave league open to allow trading, adds, and drops during the offseason.
This would allow managers to make all league transactions within the platform, including adds, drops, and trades, throughout the year.

I have been with Yahoo! for a long time and love the fantasy football experience, but it is not a great platform for dynasty leagues. I have been forced to look into other sites/apps because Yahoo! does not allow year long roster management. We would like to host our rookie draft closer to the completion of the NFL draft but are forced to wait until June 1 for rosters to load and begin managing our teams. This is sadly becoming a deal breaker for staying with Yahoo! long term. Even if it were part of the premium upgrade it would be better.

Totally agree that there should be a Dynasty option available in Yahoo. Like other Dynasty websites, be open all year round. Three rounds for three years of draft picks available to trade. You guys would blow websites like Sleeper and Fantrax out of the water guaranteed.

Could we have an update on the viability of this item, please?

This is a CRUCIAL feature for Dynasty and Keepers. I have to keep a google drive and manually keep track of trades involving picks, players and FAAB.
I don't know the exact numbers but based on public perception you guys seems to be losing a hefty amount of players to sleeper. You're still above ESPN, CBS and those random platforms due to loyalty and league history feature but at some point yall have to evolve with the competition.
Fantasy football is becoming bigger every single year and yall dont want to become an afterthought to sleeper as the new generation gets into fantasy.

Since you guys offer keeper/dynasty you should keep the app open all off season. Trades are still made in the off season. It would be much easier to do them on the app rather then having to record them offline.

agreed. more like when season rounds up again you are only able to make trades and draft picks. This is for those that only play keeper/dynasty leagues like me. it will solve everything instead of writing it out on message board or league chat. i think this is a greatt idea. hats off to you my friend.

How is dynasty not a format option in 2022?? Our league makes it work with off the site book keepings for trades and pickups. It is a nightmare for me, the commish. Several league mates have said to switch to sleeper to alleviate this problem. I don't want to do that. HELP

year round access is needed for dyansty leagues along with the ability to trade future draft picks. without these features i'll have to move my league to Sleeper. Sleeper is a far better platform for dynasty.

How is this not already an option??!! This is a must for keeper leagues. Also, show our last season's rosters!

Do you realize that people have been asking Yahoo to do this for the last decade? 10 year si and they are still "gathering information". Stop and think how funny that is. This is why my 3 keeper leagues left Yahoo years ago. Just checking in to see if there are changes. Obviously not. And to think of the market share gain Yahoo would get with this simple fix for Keeper and Dynasty leagues. How absurdly stupid of Yahoo. Still.

After administrating all off-season activities off-line for the last four years, I'll be shifting my dynasty leagues to Sleeper after the 2022 season. I'd love to stay on Yahoo's platform, but it's too much work to keep up the spreadsheets myself. Please, Yahoo - this should have been done YEARS ago - make your dynasty leagues available and online year-round so we can run actual, proper dynasty leagues.

This is something that Yahoo definitely needs to do to compete with the other FF platforms. I am having to record the trades and movements during the off-season and it would be great to just allow them to be done through yahoo as they are during the season. I think trades, not add/drops should be allowed

Yeah, do that please

Make them separate settings for the commisioner so, for example, trades can be executed, but no add drops, etc.

I believe this is a no brainer. As the commissioner of a keeper league,I can only speak to my particular league but trades are constantly being discussed. I speak for everyone in my league when I say this would make fantasy better. Also during the draft, trades should be allowed. It's too complicated to get a trade at draft going now as well. No one will pull the trigger because there's a lot of things to consider. These 2 ideas should go hand in hand. Fantasy never sleeps

Please add this! Agree with the user below...we would love to host our dynasty league on yahoo and even pay for it. Sleeper or MFL are options for us but we still use yahoo and work around it with a google sheet.

They should also add taxi squads for dynasty

This is the easiest thing in the WORLD. You could knock MFL out of business and capture tens of THOUSANDS of leagues that are all PAYING MONEY to host their leagues, just because they are dynasty leagues and people need access to rosters and trades.
For those managing leagues that need to migrate between these platforms...we would LOVE to PAY YAHOO if you would just add this capacity.
PS- WTF is with the limited roster spots? Just allow as many as leagues want to have so our deeper leagues can exit on here too.
Dominate the space already. Everything else Yahoo does now blows, but you could be kinds of the fantasy sports space if you just made this one simple move.
