I've been scratching my head over this waiver wire thing. Normally only players that are dropped are put on waivers, all others are free agents. The way that our league is currently set up is all unsigned players are placed on waivers after kickoff. This means that acquisitions are based on waiver priority and not a first come first served basis. Personally I don't like this method and, after searching for a while, I've figured out how to change it.
While I do believe that dropped players should have to clear waivers allowing the lower priority teams to put in claims for them, I think that free agents should be free agents. Owners that keep a close eye on what's going on in the NFL get rewarded for their attention to details in the free agent system. I wanted to ask the rest of the league what they think. Unless there are serious objections I will make appropriate changes on Friday, September 12. This will insure that this week's waiver claims have already been processed.
