Rosters/Lineups - Increase maximum number of roster slots.
This change would increase the maximum number of roster slots your league can have (not including IR slots). Currently the maximum is 30 roster slots.

I wish I could give all 50 of my votes to this one. 30 players is so extremely restrictive for dynasty players. This is the single reason why we may be migrating away from Yahoo! this year, and that is after being a loyal fantasy player on this site for a decade. Just do it already, I'm not even sure why this policy is in place.

With more players trying dynasty and IDP it makes no sense to cap the roster size at such a low level, at least in private leagues. Keeping it as it is will only cause people to move to other services. C'mon Yahoo, increase roster size and support those of us playing IDP dynasty!

My two leagues are at dynasty level. What we have been seeking for the past few years is an expanded roster AND a Developmental Squad of perhaps 5-8 players. The expanded roster makes for true NFL depth.
The Developmental Squad would allow managers to hold on to rookies or other fringe/2nd-tier players -- QBs,for instance -- to be slowly "groomed" over a two-year period while awaiting their "break-out". At the end of the 2-year period, the player will need to be added to the regular roster or waived.

Absolutely........Yahoo, please, please expand the roster! Interest in deep IDP keeper/dynasty leagues is increasing rapidly. More than half of the teams in my 2nd year league want to move to MFL or NFL next year to access those 40 man rosters. That is also true at two more Yahoo dynasty leagues I play in, but no longer Commish. There is so much to like here at Yahoo. But another season at 30 is a deal breaker. Please.......we want to stay here if possible!

+3 on this! We run a dynasty league with IDP and the 30 limit is barely enough for starters, bench, and prospects. We started a taxi squad this year and because of the limit I'm having to keep track of it in google docs. We're considering MFL as well because of the restrictions in Yahoo. Dynasty leagues are getting more popular, Yahoo, you need to increase the options available and cater to those leagues as well.

This is a must yahoo, most of my leagues have been debating moving over to MFL (myfantasyleague) for this one reason! We are pretty close to just pulling the trigger. Want to keep traffic and ad revenue up? you should make this change ASAP!

I would like to see this option as well. It would also be nice if you could set a positional limit (i.e. 3 QBs per roster).

For private leagues, the commish can set it at whatever the league wants.

For any private leagues of dynasty or keepers I agree. For public leagues no, To many guys sign up and never hear from them again.

I agree I had to drop young talent like Derrick Rodgers for colts and another team picked up and now look my dynasty star is on another team. I had to many injuries and too small a roster to retain him . Please expand the rosters

The roster limit is to small. It limits the possibilities of deeper dynasty leagues. All other sites increased rosters to at least 40. It makes it nearly impossible to keep the rookies we draft every year as dynasty holds for our future prospects. If yahoo fixed this I woukdnt as a commissioner have to make teams red shirt players on paper out of yahoo rather then having yahoo open this up so we can have and live all our possibilities our league offers. Our dynasty league carries all players over every year and we have a 4 round draft of the rookies and we have to cut down to (30) which is impossible to retain your young talent. So I created red shirts we call them. So we red shirt them for the next year because yahoo doesn't have large enough rosters. Please expand the rosters. Please!! All other sites have larger rosters. Thx
