The Hood - 2017 Amendments Poll

Free Agent Acquisition Budgets (FAAB) add another level of realism to the game. Not only do you have to think about the best players to draft, but you also have to take into account your team's acquisition budget.

In a FAAB waivers system, each manager receives a dollar amount to place blind bids on players that are on waivers. The manager with the highest bid at the end of the waiver period claims that player and that bid amount is deducted from the team's acquisition budget.

FAAB Rules

• The FAAB doesn't apply to free-agent pickups. 
• Bids are hidden to other managers until a player clears waivers. The winning bid will display in the Transaction log. 
• Players with multiple bids placed on them will display under "FAAB Bids" on a league's Transactions log.
• The FAAB system charges you the exact amount you bid if your bid is successful.
• The FAAB budget for teams is $200. 
• There isn't an option to force managers to make a minimum bid amount.
• The waiver priority will only change if 2 or more managers bid the same exact dollar amount on the same player.
• Tiebreakers in which two managers bid the same amount on the same player will be resolved by a continual rolling list.
