Waiver Requests will always award each franchise one player per round. No franchise will receive a second player until all franchises that have requested players receive their first in that round. Once the round is complete it will move to the next round of requests.

For owners to enter their Waiver Requests they will go to the For Owners > Add/Drop during the waiver request period defined in their league calendar. The requests will then need to be entered on a round per round basis. The players will in no circumstance move "up" a round in the event that all others in the round are taken.

You may repeat the process for each additional round by selecting the "Round" button to add the new add/drop request. Note that the system will award the first available player for each round so it may be necessary to enter several players in each round to ensure a player.

Example: You need a New QB and a RB for this round of waivers, and you have a specific QB and RB that you wish to drop in exchange for a new player. You will enter the waivers as follows to help ensure you to receive each of these players

Read in English these requests mean:
• In Round 1 you will Request QB A, if not A then QB B, and if not B then QB C and for whichever QB you pick up you wish to drop QB Z
• In Round 2 you are requesting RB X first, if not X then RB Y, if not Y then RB Z and for whichever RB you pick up you wish to drop RB A.

• Every round is same order, using the criteria below.
  
• The first round of every waiver run is set using the criteria below, each subsequent round is the reverse order of the previous round.
  
• The system maintains a week-long rolling waiver order, moving the franchise that picks to the bottom of the list, but reseting when the standings are updated each week to the order using the criteria below
  
• The system maintains a season-long rolling waiver order, moving the franchise that picks to the bottom of the list.
  

NOTE: These option require that at least one "Waiver Request" waiver type be defined using the Waivers Setup screen.

Max. Rounds for the Weekly Waiver Wire - Each waiver request period may have up to eight rounds.  Each franchise may select waiver requests for as many rounds as defined by the league.  When the waiver requests are processed, each franchise will only receive one player per waiver round before any franchise will receive two players.  When set to the maximum of eight rounds, a franchise could at most add/drop up to eight players in one waiver round.  

Waiver Request Sort Order -

• Each round is the same order as the first round.  This default setting will keep waivers consistent from round to round.
• Each round is the reverse order of the previous round.  Changing to this setting will provide a more balanced (snake-type) waiver award period.
• The system maintains a week-long rolling waiver order, moving the franchise that picks to the bottom of the list, but reseting when the standings are updated each week to the order using the criteria below
• Use a season-long, rolling order.  This option offer a single waiver order whereby any time an owner is awarded a player, they automatically drop to the bottom of the waiver priority list.

NOTE: When using the "season-long rolling order" option, all other waiver criteria remain unused.  The only time the order appers is prior to the first processing.  You can set up your inital order on the Custom Waiver Order in the preseason.
