), the waiver wire runs and awards the waiver players to the appropriate team that submitted a claim based on the waiver order.  The waiver order will be discussed in more detail below. 

Any players not claimed within the 48-72 hour claim window will clear waivers and become unconditional free agents.  Free agents can be signed to any fantasy team on a first-come, first-served basis, and they will immediately be placed on that team's roster.

First Waiver Wire of the Season
After the season has started, waiver priority will be determined by the most recent league standings. The Waiver Wire Order is re-set each Tuesday at 12:00pm(ET) during the season. The first re-setting of the Waiver Wire Order will occur on Tuesday, September 12th. The team in last place in the league will have the best waiver priority position, and the team in first place will have the worst waiver priority position.  Each time a team receives a player from waivers, the team is placed last in the waiver wire order. Owners whose claims were unsuccessful, or did not make a waiver claim, move up the number of positions associated with the number of successful waiver wire claims processed.

Making Transactions
To claim waiver players, go to the league’s home page and click on the link called “Waiver Wire.” From this page you will see all available players that are on waivers or are free agents.  The first column on the left is the “Action” column and the next column is the “Status” column.  If a player is a free agent, the Status column will say “Free Agent.”  If the player is on waivers, the Status column will show a date.  The date shown is approximately the date that the player will be awarded based on the claims that have been put in on him.  If the player is not awarded to a team, then he will become a free agent on that date.

You can also pick up a player via the "Player Search" box located the left navigation menu. Submit the first three lettesr of the players last name and a list of the player will be displayed. If the player is available there will be a "Claim" link next to their name.

When picking up players off the waiver wire, the statistic categories displayed will be different based upon the positions selected.(QB, WR,TE, RB, K, DL,LB,DB, etc.) The only statistics that are displayed for all positions are the G, FP, and FP/G.

*How to Pick Up a Free Agent
The Action column next to free agents will say Claim.  Clicking the Claim link will display a roster page where the free agent can be added to the fantasy team and corresponding players on the team can be shuffled to other positions and/or waived off the team to make room for the new player.  Submitting that page will bring up a confirm page and submitting the confirm page will immediately execute all moves. 
*How to Claim a Player on Waivers
Claiming waiver players is slightly different.  First, click Claim next to the player. Doing so will display a page where a corresponding player can be designated to be dropped if (and only if) the waiver player is awarded to the team during the evaluation.  Submitting that page will bring up a confirm page and submitting the confirm page will log the claim as pending. 
*When Making Claims Watch please note . . .
- While the claim is pending, the team owner may delete the claim by going to the league home page and clicking the Pending Claims link.
- When the waiver claim is ultimately evaluated, the player you chose as the one to drop to make room for the new player MUST be in the exact same place on your roster as he was when the claim was submitted or the waiver claim will be denied.  If the corresponding player to drop was on your bench when the claim was submitted he must still be on your bench when the claim is evaluated.  If the corresponding player to drop was in your starting lineup when the claim was submitted he must still be in your starting lineup when the claim is evaluated (though it is okay for him to be at a different postition in your lineup).  For example, if you put in a claim for Kerry Collins and specify that if you get Collins you will waive Rich Gannon, who was in your starting lineup, then you MUST leave Gannon in  your starting lineup until the waiver wire runs to award you Collins.  If you move Gannon to your bench, waive him, or trade him before the waiver wire run tries to give you Collins, you will NOT get him.In all cases, when the claim is evaluated, the final result of the transaction must leave the fantasy roster in compliance with game's 20 man roster limit or the claim will be denied.
