The FAAB waiver wire cheatsheet

Know what the experts would bid before waivers run.

Every week of the NFL season, the best fantasy football writers publish what they would bid on the waiver wire. Faabtastic collects every one of those FAAB bids side by side, averages them, and gives you the going rate for every player at every position — so you never overpay for a breakout, and never lose one by a dollar.

  1. 1. The experts publish

    Monday night and Tuesday, the top fantasy sites post their waiver wire articles, each with a FAAB bid for every player worth adding.

  2. 2. We put every bid side by side

    One table per position, every expert's number in its own column, with the average, the trimmed mean, and what the community would pay.

  3. 3. You bid with confidence

    Waivers run Tuesday night into Wednesday. Find your player, see the going rate, and put in a bid that wins without draining your budget for the rest of the season. Connect your Sleeper or ESPN leagues and every player is marked available or taken on your own wire.
