We need to come up with a way to do blind bids and waiver add/drops with our taxi squad players. I submitted a request for 2 players in blind bidding and was denied because it said, adding 2 and dropping 2 would exceed my roster limit whacko2.gif
I know we've had this problem in the past but never came up with a solution for it.

Before the waiver is over, move one of your players to taxi squad (anyone). After waivers are over, exchange them out. I don't have this problem but if I did that's what i would do to get by. My roster is always at 18 and I don't have this problem.

My suggestion would either be to do away with the taxi squad completely or do away with it in MFL and designate your taxi squad here on the boards.

Increase the roster size to 23 and do away with taxi squad. Thumbs up.

I proposed that last year (for the same reason) and was shot down.

I like the taxi squad and think it's a fun and important twist of any dynasty league. I don't fully understand the problem as the other BOTH dynasty league I'm in has a 12 man taxi squad, same software, and this has never been an issue.

Apoc, have you tried emailing MFL customer service?

I agree, TS for a dynasty is a must. I know this can be fixed in MFL.

I haven't, but I'm pretty familiar with MFL setup and have been through the documentation, and haven't seen any setting to make things work the way we want.

I'll shoot them an email just to make sure.

I would like to keep it as well, and shouldn't be that hard for owners to manage.

According to the support boards, there is no current way to pick up a FA or trade directly to the taxi squad.

Well, at the very least we should be able to put a moratorium on roster requirements during waivers. If we need to run waivers manually, in order to see owner comments that would subsequently make rosters legal after pickups, I'll volunteer to do that.
