Retraction: Without a proper Carryover TPE percentage this is your best bet. Not sure why the league expanded to so many teams so quickly. That's pre-mature done by inexperienced sim leaguers.

Expansion: Unless you're looking to kill off the league, I'd advise against this.

I am reading all of these and will provide my thoughts later tonight. Please keep them coming.

Here's an idea that will never, ever happen: have a TPE cap instead of (or, probably more likely, in addition to) a salary cap. Soft cap, of course, where adding a contract above a certain team TPE threshold incurs a cap penalty. It'd need a ton of polishing to even approach being serviceable but in a league where the salary cap and money don't really matter something like that may help free agency.

Speaking of ideas I like that'll never happen:

Love the idea of relegation.

Make the DSFL a second tier league, not a minor league.  Every season 2 teams get promoted from DSFL from NSFL and 2 NSFL teams get relegated to DSFL. 

Promotion/Relegation: The top DSFL champion is automatically promoted to the NSFL.  The team that lost the DSFL championship enters into a one game playoff to see if they get promoted, more to come.  The worst regular season NSFL team is automatically demoted to DSFL.  The second worst regular season NSFL team plays the loser of DSFL championship in one exhibition game, the DSFL team will be the home team.  If the DSFL team wins, they replace the NSFL team in the NSFL.  Otherwise the NSFL team remains in the NSFL.

Drafting: There would no longer be a DSFL draft or a NSFL draft, but one combined draft.  A new midseason create comes in as a waiver DSFL player and will join the DSFL player that claimed him.  After his first season he enters the draft where any team (NSFL/DSFL) can draft him.  It will take several seasons for teams to level out here.  This motion would also deter NSFL tanking, the draft order would be all DSFL teams, followed by all NSFL teams.  So the worst NSFL team ends up with 5th pick, instead of 1st.

Free Agency: Any player can sign with any team, NSFL or DSFL.

Player Loans: If a NSFL team has a player that they have no room for, they can loan that player to a DSFL team.  Any terms can be negotiated here, but mainly these will be one season deals, where the DSFL team pays the players salary.

I love all of this and would like to second it

Some good long-term ideas were mentioned like promotion/demotion type league or changes to regression, but another thing I think would improve players retention are quality of life type changes.

Earning money is somewhat repetitive right now and nothing stands out. Do article, which is only graded on per word basis, make some sigs or tweet on your account, that isn't really shown anywhere else. There is also statistical analysis option, which I'd probably love to do if I knew anything about football.
- Let's give bonuses for high-quality media - nice formatting, high effort, interesting topics (We can implement weekly prompts that when claimed give bonus money)
- Add video section that is handsomely rewarded to give another option of money making and one that people probably would like to see
- For league size and stream length still, not many people go to see them, even though the streaming team is doing an amazing job. As another cash opportunity (to not unbalance TPE earnings) maybe introduce the game threads, where person assigned to will do the nice introduction to the gameplay-by-play and summary for the variable amount of money (fixed base sum ($1M?) + bonus for effort/effect (0-$1M?)).

- Weekend PT is sometimes really uncomfortable to complete, maybe we extend the period for completion or merge it with normal PT?

- More awards - so far, not every position have it's own positional award e.g. CB/SS/FS compete for just one award - Top Defensive Back (there is also Defensive Player of the Year, but it has even more competition). It's a fluff, but somewhat exciting one, that potentially could spark some new media too. We are soon to be on a moment in the league that coincidentally with introducing first class of HoF we could even give awards proper names.

Second this. I usually end up doing ten minutes of verbal diarrhea right before I got to bed Sunday night, or on the toilet.

Strongly agree with both points.

We used to have that, actually. NSFLN or something along those lines iirc.
I don't know why we stopped, tbh.
