Commissioner tools for playoffs:options to customize team seeding (drag & drop similar to line ups are done), drop down options for number of teams & scoring format(H2H v Aggregate) for each round of the lg designated playoffs.
This will allow for easier use of home brew rules and accurate league histories encouraging more site interaction by users. -

Punt Yards for Defense/Special Teams. One can currently turn on return yards, but those seem to have an 'offensive flavor' while punt yards are a bit more 'defensive'.

Give us an option for a 10 team playoff from weeks 14-17. Seeds 7-10 play for the 7th and 8th seed, then playoffs resume as a 8 team playoff after that. 14 team leagues would benefit greatly from this. The scoring is fine.

You currently only allow 26 categories for offence. Can you please allow more?

Kick off return and punt return credit/points to actual player who scored TD. Add yardage as well. Yes, an owner will receive 2x credit if they drafted team defense (Special teams) and actual player.

add TE Premium scoring, only way to fix the TE position without adding additional flex spots

Enhanced way of scoring the median. Please read below:
Problem: median scoring, while great, doesn't reward teams on a weekly basis for higher point totals.
Solution: Weekly Stack Rank vs The Median
Every week, the top half vs the median will get wins. However, rather than 1 win, they get stack ranked. I.e. in a 12 team league, the weekly high point getter would get 6 wins, the 2nd highest would get 5 wins, 3rd highest would get 4 wins, 4th highest would get 3 wins, 5th highest would get 2 wins and the 6th highest would get 1 win. Teams 7-12 would get 0 wins.
This would be a great alternative to the current median system as it incentivizes teams to score more than just against the median, it's also more competitive than straight points and much less based on the luck factor of H2H.
Please look into this system as it would be a huge win for the FF community! Thanks!

Please add the option to allow scoring when a receiver draws a pass interference penalty.

I am very interested in QB Hits!

Currently Yahoo does not award points for fumble recoveries to offensive players. They will only award points if there is a change of possession. This does not make any sense as a fumble recovery is an official stat regardless of change of possession.
For example, if a QB fumbles the ball, and you have a RB,WR, or TE that recovers the fumble, you will not receive any points if your league settings awards points for recoveries.
Can we please get this changed? This is simply because Yahoo has it set up this way and there is no way to change it unless they do.

Add downing punts inside 10yd line to DST. Or 20yd line or 5yd or whatever. Or add punters as positional groups. Punting is waaaaay overlooked in fantasy.

Hello Yahoo. Thanks you for your Fantasy Football. I would like to suggest the option of adding a scoring feature if the player's team actually wins or loses the game. Hypothetically +1 point for the team win, -1 for the team loss with flexibility to adjust the +- for various positions. I suppose this could apply to any player but this should apply principally to the team defense (+- 3 points?). The D deserves something if the team wins IMO. Thanks, Blair Kendall.

Excellent! Need to allow interception yardage to be added to defense. I.e. 1 point for every x yards returned.
-
Rick Gorskie commented
On interceptions... can you add a selection (on defense) to add points for the yardage accumulated? Defense would get 1 point for every "x" yards.

1.5 PPR for TE position.
TE bonus has become very popular over the last few years, this really needs to be a scoring option.

Can you add an option for H2H playoffs at the end of a Roto season. It would be nice if teams lower in the standings had a reason to keep managing their team if say the top 8 teams make the playoffs over the final 3 weeks of the season. Sports are about the playoffs and I think Roto leagues are lacking in this regard.
