It isn't a Keeper issue, that would be a Can't Cut List issue. Keepers are players that teams keep from their roster from the end of the previous season and are assigned by the commissioner pre draft, filling the designated picks in the draft and preventing other teams from selecting them. Players will have the Keeper designation by their name throughout the season. It does not in any way prevent them from being dropped from the roster by the manager. What you need to prevent managers from dropping a player is to have them on the Can't Cut List. The Commissioner needs the ability to add players to the Can't Cut List to prevent a manager from dropping them.

We have a contract year league and yahoo is not working for us because team owners drop multi-year contract players when our league rules prohibit it but yahoo allows it.

Allow league commissioners to assign keepers after the draft. All contract year leagues need this feature.

I was able to add them through "Assign Salary Cap Keeper Players" as a workaround but it is less than ideal.

In the offseason we want to allow trades. We also have had "expansion" drafts for new owners if there is more than one vacant team they select players from either of those teams as keepers. Unlike baseball it will not allow me to manually move a player off and onto a team pre-draft. Also allowing pre-draft trade would help alleviate this issue. It is a simple fix as far as allowing commissioners to edit rosters pre-draft since you allow it in your baseball format.

Reading through the comments, my priorities would be
1) retain keeper salaries during the approve/confirm stage (why do we have to type them?)
2) allow automatic rules implementation for setting max number of keepers and max budget (if applicable)
3) allow keeper selection on the mobile app, currently it can only be done via website -

There should be a way to set league keeper rules and keep track of past year keepers without having to go back and forth and do this all manually. I've had to create my own spreadsheet since Yahoo doesn't offer this function. Please update!!!

Please spend some time investing in the Keeper Leagues! We have had the same yahoo keeper league for 23 years. Considering leaving since so many other sites have so much more Keeper League functions. A rookie draft function would be great. Letting us change the number of roster spots pre and post-draft draft...something to help us manage keeper leagues easily. Even setting the league back up, is time-consuming. Just put the teams from the end of last season back as this season's roster.

I'm not sure what this would look like in Yahoo, but I run a hybrid keeper/redraft league where team owners can keep varying numbers of players based on the total points they accummulated in the previous season. For example, the league champion can keep 1000 points-worth of players, whereas each lower-ranked team can keep 50 points less-worth of players, down to the #8 finisher who can keep 650 points-worth of players. (Setting the final ranking of teams requires a consolation bracket, but that's apparently a topic for a different thread.) So the top-ranked team (the league champion) can keep any number of players on their team that totalled less than 1000 points on the season. We also have a maximum point total of 50 points per player, so it would be nice to be able to set this number as well.

Why is it that once everyone selects their keeper, I as the commish still have to go in and enter "draft results" and essentially input everyone's team? Why can't the keepers just be moved over and populate a GM's team? I wish you could set the league to "Dynasty" and then every year your whole team just pops up and is ready to go, nothing to do about it. Maybe if GMs had IR players from the year before they will be prompted to drop players to get back to maximum roster size. Alternatively, the league could be set to "Keeper" and a set number of keepers could be picked and auto imported to a GM's team as a starting point.

Implement the amount of players each manager can keep.

In a keeper/dynasty league, can you add next year's Draft Picks in the "My Team" tab for all teams? Maybe below the rostered players? This would be very helpful to trading purposes.

I like to play in keeper leagues. It would be nice if I could filter out the non-keeper leagues, or vice versa for others.Or maybe allowing us to identify it as a keeper league in our league settings, like a yes/no. Then maybe a shiny K would appear next to the league name in the boards.

Yahoo is losing a lot of Dynasty business to other sites such as sleeper due to lack of dynasty tools, such as a tool to manage the rookie draft or tool to allow off season trades. The rookie draft is the big thing, right now to have a rookie draft in Yahoo you have to post picks to the message board. I commish several dynasty leagues in Yahoo, but several I don't commish have moved to sleeper and I know sleeper is growing this business. Dynasty leagues are often private prize leagues, so it is a revenue opportunity

Would like to have more customization for keepers.
I have been running a keeper league for 12 years now. We only keep rounds 6 and later. I would like everyone drafted in rounds 6 and later to have a "K" to let managers know they are eligible keepers.
We allow FA keepers but they follow a different rules. I would like all players who are FA or who were acquired as FA to have a "k" (lowercase) to allow managers to know they they are keeper eligible but based on different rules.
Currently you have a k for the players that were kept last year. That isnt very helpful for .
Thanks -

We are wanting to open up trades between seasons. Currently, any trading is tracked manually. We would like to see an option to open up trades just as the NFL does, ie, 2 weeks after the Superbowl to two weeks before NFL draft, as an example. With my keeper league, there a 3 year moratorium on players with keepers set at 3. If you have 5 really good players, off-season trading would allow these trades to occur along with draft picks without the potential of losing them to free agency.
Thanks

Hello, you should look into opening the app earlier this year for keeper/dynasty leagues. Most keep leagues run all year. Last year opening in June made it hard to record draft picks drops and trades.
If you opened it in April for the draft it would make running keepers/dynasty much easier -

A system where we could see out all-time record, point scored etc. against the opponents in our league(s). If you wanted to add on to it you could do something like out historic week 12 average or something similar to the sort.
