Keeper settings in commissioner tools and add keeper calculator (for both auction or snake draft leagues)
Create Comissioner setting for Keepers, which would allow the Comissioner to set the keeper premium or cost to keep a player for the next season and each season their after (round penalites for snake draft leagues, added cost from auction draft/waiver cost for auction leagues.)
Then for off-season/in-season, create a "Keeper calculator) for all members (not just commissioner) to utilize. this will show what rounds of the draft you will lose if you keep the player (for snake draft leagues) or the auction cost to keep a player as well as remaining budget if kept (for auciton draft leagues).

Editing players who are "Out" before a game
If a player is "out" before a game starts, he should be editable for any player whose game has not started, not locked in once that game starts.

Don't allow players who aren't on real life IR to be put in the IR spot
Make it so the commissioner can designate who can be put on IR or only make so real life IR players can be put on it.

Quit making Leonard Fournette DOUTFULL every week instead of OUT. He is OUT until after the bye.
Leonard Founette is OUT- STOP making him doubtful for 3-4 days every week.

Toggle visibility of projections
Give each owner the ability to hide projections if they don’t want to see them. The projections can sway a decision, and I’ve found many times I went with a player based solely on projection, but it ended up being the wrong decision!

Need a way to get an “alert” when a player becomes available
If there is a way to get some kind of “alert” when a player becomes available, I haven’t found it. You should do that. Iow, if players get traded, they are still “claimed”. So I don’t care.
BUT if a player simply gets dropped (as a team picks up a new player and has to make room on the roster by dropping a current player), he is available and we should be alerted to that so we can try to pick up that “dropped” player.460th rankedHey Randy, this is something our team is working on at the moment. Stay tuned!

More Customization
More customizable. We allow trading waiver dollars in our league that should be something the comish doesn’t have to edit. Also I run a 14 team league, and we want to go to 7 playoff teams next year (1 seed with the bye) and this isn’t an option. I know we can do 8 teams and just bench the 8 seed players but it’d be nice if it could be set without it. Also, if a team wants to have a wild card for most points, it should be an option.

Please bring Team Slogans back to Yahoo Fantasy Football!
The combination of a Team Name, Picture and Slogan has given our group of friends countless opportunities to enjoy ourselves over the past 7 years we've been playing on Yahoo. Having a team slogan is very important to us. We much prefer the Yahoo interface to the competition but will have to change providers in order to maintain our fun. Please bring slogans back!

Notification if comment posting is read?
In my league, I have always make weekly reports on what happened in the league the past weekend. I do a more personal report with a bit of grats or smack talk or predictions. Anything that helps make the league a bit more fun.
I was wondering if there was a way to have the players team icons show on the OP comment so I can tell if someone has read it or not? Maybe along the title bar or across the bottom of the OP next to the reply button.
Usually I just assume it's read or I bug…

Stop allow for unfair and fraudulent comments made in the Weekly Recaps under Matchups
Whoever is doing Weekly recaps is making unfair comments about why an Owner's Team lost in a particular, week, such as not mentioning they lost a player to injury early in a game. They are also posting comments under the Team Name, under Coaches talk, that the owner never made. Put a stop to this.

Final Grade
So you sent me two emails with my "final grade..." a league I got 4th in said "you've built a winner" and a league I got 1st in said "anyone can have an off-year." I'm not sure if this is incompetence, carelessness, or stupidity, but you're making me embarrassed to use Yahoo. Not that this is the first time I've felt this way, nor will it be the last, but at risk of quoting Chris Berman, c'mon man!

more pro leagues. There are VERY few options left and literally zero auction leagues until end of July.
Been doing pro leagues for nearly decade this year options are extremely limited. Zero auction drafts until end of July by July lst year I had done several. Yahoo is literally throwing money away. Open up more pro leagues to those who choose to draft early and often!

Make receiving AND rushing data available on player cards for RBs/WRs.
Having to dig for receiving stats for targets, receptions, and yardage for a primarily receiving RB is ridiculous. It should be on the player card within one click. It's not even on the same page! It's really clunky and I thought Yahoo Fantasy would have fixed it by now. ESPN carries this feature and it allows much quicker analysis of player data. Even if it takes an extra click on the player card, it is absurd that it isn't available as a key data point given the trends of receiving RBs.

Mock Draft Machine Medal
I participated in over 50 mock drafts and you aren't awarding the Mock Draft Machine x50 medal. Please remove it if it's broken or fix it. Also medals are a lot of fun and quite the competition in our league. You could benefit from some new ones from time to time.

pre-draft rankings
I had Leveon Bell as #1 on my pre-draft rankings in my league. He went in round 7???? and I am just annoyed. Why pre-rank my players on Yahoo fantasy sports only to have it be not to happen. I double checked my rankings and he is # 1. Not only that, most of my choices as pre-draft selections are on other teams. ESPN here I come.....

Commissioner should be able to change Team Names/Logos
In my league we like to have a friendly punishment for whoever got last place the season before. This year it was voted that the league gets to vote on the team name for last place. As commissioner I thought I would be able to manually change other team names, but that doesn't seem to be an option. In private leagues like this why would you not allow this as an option? I would think the best route is more flexibility, and if people are doing weird things with it then the other managers can leave the league. This is…

Hi -
Hi - Is there an API to extract the data for our league? We want to give awards at the end of the season so I am hoping to extract both scores and individual player performance so we can see whose tight end had the best performance, whose team won with the lowest score, the game with the highest combine score, etc. Generate some stats that aren't otherwise available from the platform.
Thanks

Multiple Division Fantasy Football League (48 Team League)
I've been running a 48 Team Fantasy fooball league (4 divisions / 12 teams each having their own draft) 11 week reg season with the top 8 moving on to a single elimination march madness style bracket. I've been using myfantasyleague but a lot of my owners did not like the user interface. Is there a way Yahoo can create this this type of league. The few sites that could do it, charged the commissioner a upfront season fee, which I don't mind. I'm just hoping yahoo can create this since yahoo's interface is the best !! :)
