In Yahoo Fantasy sports, particularly NFL football, trade requests are not very visible to the user receiving the offer. This has been true through various desktop and mobile user interface iterations. Simply put, the space a request appears in is too small and undifferentiated visually from the rest of the features occupying the screen. Trades sit unanswered the majority of the time not because the user is thinking about the offer, but because they never notice them in the first place. I have plenty of first-hand accounts of people I know personally not recognizing they have a trade request until they are contacted outside of Yahoo Sports.

Please make trade requests separate from lumped pending transactions and call attention to them with a different color in UI highlight and greater screen space, or a notification icon somewhere visible near the team header.
