Stop guessing what a waiver bid is worth.
Every site tells you who to add. Almost nobody tells you what to pay. I price each week's pickups like the blind auction they are, adjusted for your league size, your budget, and your record. Then on Wednesday I publish what they actually sold for.

Six questions about your league and your spot in it. The slip prints a bid sized to your situation, because "bid 15%" means nothing without context.

The Wednesday thread is where the data comes from. Post your league's winning bids and they go into the next market report. New board here every Tuesday morning.

Math, not vibes
A bid is the chance a player matters, times what he's worth to the roster that needs him, discounted by weeks remaining. A handcuff in Week 12 is not a handcuff in Week 2.
Your standing changes the math
If you're 2-6, overpay for lottery tickets. Median outcomes don't save a lost season. If you're 7-1, hoard budget and pay up for insurance instead.
Real clearing prices
I recalibrate the ranges every week against reported winning bids from real leagues. The market report feeds the model. Most waiver advice never checks whether it was right.
