Waiver Wire
Moved to Last After Claim-set waiver priority based on the opposite of the draft order, but only changes waiver priority when a successful waiver claim is made.

As noted above each time a successful waiver claim is completed, the team awarded that player is moved to the end of the Waiver Priority list for their next transaction.
If there are no claims on a player during wavier period, that player becomes a free agent(i.e. can be picked up at ant time).
Note that if you drop a player and place him on waivers, you are unable to add that player to your roster again until after the waiver period has ended.
Time player will stay on waivers through the early morning of Wednesday ( 1 day waivers).
Free Agents
A free agent is a player who is not on any team roster either because that player was not drafted, or has not been added to any team.
You can add a free agent player at any time leading up to our league's add/drop dead line before that weeks games.
