Really, I was just using that as a basic example. What I'm really interested in is the ability to tweak each of those scoring categories separately as needed. Several other commissioners and I would like to run some simulated seasons (or re-simulate past seasons) and come up with a more balanced scoring models in our league(s). We'd prefer to have more scoring balance between positions in our deeper leagues with short benches - #1 QB and #1 RB and #1 WR should be roughly similar in points - that's our hope and theory at least.

Just a little clarification in case I was too brief in the post - My hope would be that the ability to use positional specific scoring would look something like this:
Passing -
QB Passing Yards: 25 YD = 1 PT
RB Passing Yards: 25 YD = 1 PT
WR Passing Yards: 25 YD = 1 PT
TE Passing Yards: 25 YD = 1 PT
K Passing Yards: 25 YD = 1 PTRushing -
QB Rushing Yards: 25 YD = 1 PT
RB Rushing Yards: 10 YD = 1 PT
WR Rushing Yards: 10 YD = 1 PT
TE Rushing Yards: 10 YD = 1 PT
K Rushing Yards: 25 YD = 1 PTAnd so on and so forth with the scoring categories. Hopefully that clears up any confusion or ambiguity.

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.

Chris,
Let's be honest with ourselves here, and I'm completely open to being shown I'm wrong with an example here, but you have to make it all the way to "Rhett Ellison NYG - RB,TE" at #436 on Yahoo's after-season rankings to find a dual-eligible player.
Even in an incredibly deep league (2 QB, 3 WR, 2 RB, 2 TE, 2 Flex) with even 14 or 16 teams you're only talking about max 208 starters and that's assuming the two roster spots for DEF and a K.
If *checks earlier post for copy paste name*... Rhett Ellison NYG - RB,TE is the deciding factor for an owner, well kudos to that man or woman because that's a heck of a play. Realistically no dual threat players (on offense) are going to be tearing up your H2H match ups.
