Also, can someone explain adding and dropping players to me? Do people who got extra draft picks get more bench space because it was saying I had to drop someone to add but I think other people have more guys?

And then how exactly do waivers work? In the past I just grab players that I like and don't really think all that much about waiver position and such, when you use a waiver do you go to the end of the waiver line and that's how it works? Do you have to choose a round to make a claim?

No one got extra draft picks. Roster limit is 18 players. Everyone left the draft with 18 players.

Waivers
The waivers process is overseen by the Board of Commissioners.

Each week during the regular season, there will be two free agent bidding periods. The first period is called waivers; the second is called the first come, first served claim period.

Waivers will open for the first time after Week One of the NFL regular season has concluded.

Each week, after the NFL games are completed, all IBL teams will be assigned a waiver claim order. The waiver claim order will be determined first by worst winning percentage to best winning percentage, with the lesser teams having priority. The tiebreakers for determining waiver claim order are (in order): least total points scored, and reverse order of opponent total points scored.

There will be 4 waiver rounds each week. IBL owners may claim up to 4 players per week in the waivers process, 1 player per round. There is no limit to the number of players an owner may acquire during the weekly first come, first served claim period.

Any NFL player or team defense not currently on 8 IBL rosters is available to be claimed on waivers.

Waiver claims can begin to be submitted at the league’s regular season site beginning at 12 midnight ET each Monday night and concluding at 10:00pm ET each Wednesday night.

The first round of claims will be processed by the WC after 10:00pm EST on Wednesday night via the regular season site.

The first come, first served claim period opens to all IBL teams on Thursdays at 11:00am ET. When the free agent pool opens at that time, all available free agents are available to be acquired by IBL owners on a first come, first served basis at the regular season sites.

All players dropped during the first come, first served claim period may be picked up immediately by other IBL owners. Any questionable drop/add's by teams from the same boards may be reviewed by the Commissioner Board. If the Commissioner Board rules that the transactions were made in an obvious attempt to circumvent the rules about Intraboard trades, both transactions will be reversed.

The first come, first served claim period will remain open until 1:00pm ET each Sunday. On weeks with Thursday and Saturday games, all free agents playing in those early games are locked at kickoff of those games, but other free agents may be claimed until 1:00pm ET on Sunday.

At 1:00pm ET each Sunday, the weekly first come, first served claim period ends, and no more player acquisitions can be made until the waiver process begins again the following Monday night.

I got an uninspiring 119 points due to my quarterback making GBS threads the bed and getting some disappointing results from several guys. As far as I can tell we have seven matchups each week?

Anyways I went 5-2, those two guys outscored me horribly but still not a bad result overall. For SA as a whole we have two 6-1s, four 5-2s, two 4-3s, two 3-4s and two 0-7s for guys who had a tough week getting points. As far as I can tell that leaves us at .547 win percentage as a whole

It was a pretty wild week, I expect things to stabilize a bit next week. Some guys that went off will come back to earth and some guys who didn't do poo poo will get it going.

I started Big Ben, who threw a single pass for a single yard in the Patriots side of the field the entire first half. If McCaffrey didn't have an absolutely beastly day I would've been blown out in every single game

yeah looks like I just had to open the page again. I was refreshing but it still said global player lock, for some reason I had to go back to the menu and then click on add drop

Also I've got a strategy question: who should start among these guys: Jared Cook, MVS, Will Fuller, Stefon Diggs. I know you'll say Diggs but I didn't start him week 1 and ended up correct with him only getting 5.7 points. The Vikings will probably throw the ball a bit more this week but I just don't know

Let’s not get all worked up about my posting about a good start. I don’t even know if I’ve played any of you yet, I don’t look at matchups. There’s nothing on the line in this league.

I’m here because I thought many guys on SA would enjoy the draft format, and I have tried to be repeatedly helpful answering people’s questions about the league. I’ve been on the FS team for many years and it would’ve been rude to jump ship. I hope you guys do well.

I almost started McLaurin this week, but was talked out of it by teammates. That was bad, except I might’ve likely sat Golladay, so it was actually good. I’ll work hi or Hollywood into the lineup somehow next week.
