Players become free agents on Wednesday. You can wait until Wednesday and pick up anyone you want. If you want to put in a waiver claim for a player, you must attach a bid to your claim. If multiple people try to claim the same player, the highest bid wins. You get $100 for the entire season to use on these bids. And you can bid 0. As long as nobody else bids on the player you'll get them for free. Initial tie-breaker is reverse of draft order. |

I reached for Peterson too early but Ingram has never impressed me. Go to main league page. Click on "current standings". It's below the helmets and to the upper left of where it says "draft grades". Then click "draft day projections" on the scroll diwn list. Yahoo says Jr. comes in last with 2 wins and Sr. Comes in 1st with 10 wins. Which means Jr. wins 11 and takes 1st and Sr. Is doomed to a season worse than MSU 2016. Yahoo also predicted nemo having a terrible schedule. Whew, nemo. You will have it so easy and won't be the hard luck team this year. . |

If you bid $0 on a player nobody else bids on then yeah, you get the guy but I assume you lose your waiver spot for your next future tiebreaker. I've never done this before but it seems logical. So be forewarned. Please correct me if I'm mistaken. |

Yahoo recommends I go and pick up Spencer Ware to 'upgrade' my RB. That's how worthless their advice is.

Although matbe I'm wrong. Because the team with the worst record wins it after this week. Correct?

That is, if we both bid the same amount on a player, the person with the lowest waiver claim would get the player and his waiver claim would go to 10. The waiver claim number only changes if you win a tiebreaker. |

About this FAAB:
Is a 0 bid allowed?
When does the waiver reset? (i.e. Can we pick people up for free after the waiver period if nobody made a claim?)

The waiver period goes until 11:59pm on Tuesday. Players can also submit multiple claims, like drop player A for player B. Drop player A for player C. Drop player A for player D. As long as all the claims drop the same player, only one of the 3 claims has a chance of processing successfully. The system will attempt to process the first claim, but if player B has already been selected by another team, the system will kick that claim out as void and move to the claim for player C. If player C is available, the claim will process. Since player A has now been dropped the claim for player D will now be voided. |

Your auto draft pick in the 11th round when you went to take a dump stole Seattle from me I saved it for you bt taking kc insead a pick before CJ. Not sure why?Anyhow,CJ, IMO you did the best. Time will tell us more. I've never had so many 50/50 choices in one draft. I may have caused myself irreparable damage and I think the meek may inherit our fantasy Earth this year. Hell, even Thee may grab bronze...NAH. Question for all you FAAB strategy supporters. Are we playing strategy hardball like with the fellas in the big leagues? For example: A bids $15 on X while B bids $12 and C bids $8. A wins the player for $15. However, B loses his $12 and C loses his $8. Then we can really get to spend time strategizing and put on our big boy pants! Scary, huh? No fishng around!! Also, is it true that you can make it so once players are broke they can grab FA's but never work the wire again even bidding zero. I guess that can be circumvented by saving $1and never using it. |

Your auto draft pick in the 11th round when you went to take a dump stole Seattle from me I hope everyone remembers me announcing 3 weeks ago that you would take Rodgers on pick 23? I almost took him to mess with your head. Not really. But you could have got Le'veon Bell had Ezekiel minded his manners. Assuming CJ took Johnson I was taking a damned Cowboy (Elliot). Bell drops to you. (Right, I know. You wanted McCoy anyhow. Bell is scary. Also, I didn't think Dez (another hated Cosboy) would drop to me and had Cooks on my radar. Seriously considered taking Crowell or reaching for K Hunt instead. Why did I take Cook? I did that down the line a lot. Poor preparation. Not sure I would do some of those things again. Maybe. |

You don't lose any money if you lose the tiebreaker. |

Wanted Bell but knew you'd pluck him first. Didn't want Antonio Brown early because I'd rather have Martavis Bryant without the double teams. Julio was ranked way higher than when I did my work draft...got him late 2nd round then because so many QB's went off the board before him (weird league scoring). May have messed up picking McCoy first. Buffalo's O seems like they might not have a working plan for him. Might get stuffed a lot and/or get injured. You have the same MSU duo I have on my work league...Bell & Cousins. Let's hope they both stay healthy. |

Thanks for helping keep me humble guys, even though everybody knows I just rocked the draft. Your auto draft pick in the 11th round when you went to take a dump stole Seattle from me TMI. CJ told us that you were in his toilet disguised as the tidy bowl man. What happened to your sailor suit? It looks like you were walking down the side of a road during a rainstorm and a car came by and splashed mud all over you. :-o |

How long do we have until the players are locked again? Are all players locked on the same day or is the player only locked once his team plays? |

Time expired on getting that joke off over 2 hours ago. You took Rex Burkhead (never heard of him) next. I got Darren McFadden (good for at least 6 weeks) the pick after yours  |

I believe the answers are: (1) Yes, (2) Until each player's game begins, (3) Once his team plays. |
