Week One Timeline

 Here's how we'll roll through the Opening Week of the season:

Monday, September 7: Draft at 6:30 p.m.Central until 9 or 9:30ish. Later that night I will upload the rosters to our site from the Draft Board software. You can demote a rookie to the Taxi Squad once I've done that.

Tuesday, September 8: Open waivers begin at 8 a.m. Central. You can fill any open spots on your roster. We draft 14 so everyone will have an empty slot post-draft. Putting a rookie on the TS will create another one if applicable. Now is also the time to fix a drafting 'mistake'! 😏

Your first two claims are free during Opening Week. I will load up to $10 back into your waiver $$ account. Anything over 2 claims is on you. 

Wednesday, September 9: The NFL kicks off at 7:20 p.m. with the Pats and Seahawks. I considered moving the league's Thursday deadlines up a day to before this game but we'll just roll with it. If someone jumps out at you that night he's not available as an Open waiver claim since his game has kicked off. He'll be available for bidding beginning Thursday night.

👉To be clear.. Once the Pats and Seahawks kick off on Wednesday night their players are 'locked down' and will no longer be available via this first Open waivers window. And, by extention, any rookie from those two teams will NOT be open for claims or eligible to be put on the Taxi Squad once that game starts.👈

Thursday, September 10: The 'Open' waiver period ends at 6 p.m. Central. At that time the window to add a rookie to your Taxi Squad also closes. Blind Bidding on Free Agents opens at 6:00 as well.

Wednesday, September 16th: Blind Bids will process at 9 p.m. And from that point on we will be following our regular waiver schedule with Open claims from Thursday mornings through Sundays at Noon Central followed by Blind Bidding that processes every Wednesday night.
