01Bring your Yahoo roster over
- On a computer, open your team's roster page on Yahoo. On a phone, skip to step 3.
- Select from your first starter down to your last bench player, copy it, and paste it into the roster box. Extra text rides along fine.
- Or type each name into “Add a player” and tap him. Any part of his name finds him.
- Pick your scoring, league size and starting lineup. Yahoo's default lineup is the one we call Standard.
StandardQB · 2 RB · 2 WR · TE · FLEX · K · DEFTwo FLEXQB · 2 RB · 2 WR · TE · 2 FLEX · K · DEFThree WRQB · 2 RB · 3 WR · TE · FLEX · K · DEFSuperflexStandard plus a second flex that can take a QB
Full PPR, half PPR or standard scoring, in a league of 8, 10, 12 or 14 teams.
Yahoo's copy puts each player's team and position on the line under his name (“Buf - QB”). We read that as part of his line, never as an extra defense.

02What the report does with it
Every Wednesday through your title game:
- every slot decided for that roster
- each close call naming the bench player and the points gap
- an if/then for questionable starters
- the Saturday check, only if Friday's injury report changes your lineup
- every bye ahead checked through the playoffs
03What it doesn't do
It doesn't connect to Yahoo or set your lineup there. You make the moves. Roster changed? Update it from the link in any report, or reply with it.
