Scoring - Position specific scoring categories
This scoring setting change would allow commissioners to change the scoring value for common scoring categories for each position (QB/RB/WR/TE) individually. For example, a commissioner could make receptions 1 point for WRs and RBs but 2 points for TEs. Currently you can only change the scoring value for all positions at once.

As several other posts here have stated, Yahoo does have some great custom scoring options.
However, In the interest of creating better Equivalent Positional Value, I'd like to see the ability to add position specific scoring options. For instance: the ability to score QB/RB/WR/TE rushing, receiving, and passing yards separately or, more importantly, independent of each other. With such scoring a QB's rushing yards (or any other relevant stat) could be adjusted to be more/less than say the points earned by a RB.
The thought with having these options would be to create a more balanced scoring system, which would allow players to more accurately and effectively draft and choose players according to the idea of Best Available Player strategy.
For anyone interested in my inspiration and more in-depth info on this, see the link below. It is a bit dated, but I believe the data and ideas behind it hold up pretty well in today's FFB game. A very interesting read either way.

Fractional scoring for PPR is already available.
Receptions count the same for all receptions made, even for the QB. That is not likely to change.

Please add the option for adjusting reception value independent of position and adding the ability to adjust reception scoring by decimal values. For example... my league would like to use a 0.5 PPR scoring setting for all players and a 1.5 PPR scoring value for TE. As of now you can only set it to 0 or 1 PPR.

Can't be done with the current platform.
If the commish wants to create this as a "league rule" and police it themselves, then it can be done, but not thru the game platform.
