FFPC Waivers Run at 10 ET Tonight

Make Your Bids Now

Waivers Run at 10 pm Both Tonight and Friday

After a huge Week 2, remember to make those precious changes to your rosters, players! This is a friendly reminder that all FFPC Main Event, Footballguys Players Championship, Classic, Victory Point, Dynasty and other managed leagues have waivers tonight, Wednesday, September 23rd at 10 p.m. ET. A second weekly waiver period processes on Friday night at 10 p.m. ET.

  • IMPORTANT: You can only get one player per bid group. Once you get a player in that group, all other bids are voided. If you want to get multiple players, you will need multiple bid groups and multiple players to drop.
  • If you have multiple teams, please handle bidding with a single team in a single browser for now.
  • Every team has $1,000 bidding dollars to spend. This needs to last for the entire season.
  • There are no $0 bids, so please bid $1 or more.

To place bids:

  • From the league home page, click on TEAM. You will see the Bid Groups section on your Set Lineup page.
  • You can click on the 'Create Bid Group' button on the Set Lineup page to create a new group. From there you simply need to 1) add the player(s) to the group, 2) specify the bid amount for each player, 3) select the players to drop and 4) click Save.
  • Bid groups can be copied and then edited as a new group.
  • Bid amounts can be edited quickly and easily.
  • Players are default sorted by previous season stats and can be sorted by position.
  • Don't forget to include a player to drop in every bidding group.

Find a Free Agent Feature on MyTeams Page

If you are looking for a certain free agent, you can use the player search feature on the MyTeams page and it will tell you if he is rostered or not and who owns him. This is helpful for owners that have multiple teams and are looking for a priority free agent.

Waivers Open on Sundays at 9 a.m.

Players will be able to place waiver bids for the following week starting Sunday morning at 9 a.m. ET.

Pakulla on Top of Main Event

Brian Pakulla's Huskies Tallied a phenomenal 260.8 in Week 2 to shoot him to the top of the 2020 FFPC Main Event, more than 20 points ahead of Ryan Barker's CeceFrijoles squad. Dak Prescott's 46.3, Jones, Kamara, Tyler Higbee's 30.9, Ridley, and Mike Evans' 23.4 were huge in getting Pakulla to the top after two weeks of football.

Fat Frankie Inc, managed by John Pierce, ascended one spot to third with Noah Ruddell's Against the Machine moving up to fourth. John Laskowski's entry also moved up into the top five this week as we move to Week 3 in the FFPC season this weekend.
