The 20 players you draft is your roster for the entire season; weekly optimized scoring lineups are automatically started every week. Drafts are available daily in a Sit & Go (30-second clock), slow (two- and six-hour clocks) and scheduled live formats (60-second clock) with a total tourney capacity limited to 9,072 teams.
The main details of the tourney are listed below:

First Waiver Wire Run Is Tonight
TONIGHT at 10:00 p.m. ET is your cutoff to get your free agent bids in for the first waiver wire run of the season for any Main Event, Footballguys, Classic and/or Victory Points league that concluded on or before yesterday.
The waivers will then process overnight, but the players will not show up on your roster until roughly five hours later at about 3 a.m. We scheduled this as not to overload our servers when we have so many live drafts still going on until a little after 2 a.m.
The next waiver wire run will be Sunday for all Main Event, Footballguys and classic satellite leagues that conclude on or before Sunday.
- The FFPC and Footballguys Players Championship offer two preseason blind bidding waiver runs.
- Waivers will close Wednesday, September 8th (TONIGHT) at 10 pm ET.
- The next waiver period will process on Sunday, September 11th.
- Bidding is open right now and closes just before 10 pm ET tonight.
Free agency pages may be accessed by logging into your account. Then on your MyTeams page, click on "Leagues", then "Team", then "Create Bid Group" (which is the white button in the middle of the page).
General FFPC Waiver Tips:
- You can only get one player per bid group. If you want multiple players, you need multiple bid groups and I suggest different drop players as well.
- To bid, go to your FFPC MyTeams page on MyFFPC.com. Then click the blue link to go to your league home page. Then go to the navigation link TEAM, then CREATE BID GROUP about 1/4 of the way down the page.
- Each team starts with $1,000 bidding dollars. Those $1,000 are all that a team gets for the entire season, so please bid wisely. Any bidding dollars spent tomorrow will count towards the season's total.
The next waiver wire run will be Sunday for all Main Event, Footballguys and classic satellites that conclude on or before Sunday, September 11th.
