15 Bench Spots
Your bench is where you keep backups, young players, bye-week replacements, and trade chips. Dynasty benches are deeper because the league is about building a franchise, not just surviving one week.
Lineup & Roster
Each team has a deep roster built for weekly competition and long-term player development.
You start 11 players every week. Superflex means that final spot can be a QB, RB, WR, or TE — and most teams will want to use a second quarterback when they can.

IR is for injured players who qualify on Sleeper. It lets you hold hurt players without burning active bench space.
A taxi squad is like a minor-league bench for young players. You stash rookies and second-year players there while they develop.
Each team gets four taxi spots for developmental players.
Only rookies and second-year players are eligible for taxi.
Taxi players cannot be used in your lineup unless you promote them to the active roster.
Simple version: taxi is where you park young prospects you believe in, without needing them to score for you right away.
