Blind Bid Waivers

I am in a league that does BBW and I really want Derrick Ward. The league gives you $100 to bid with. How much would you want to give for a single player? My league is 12 teams with a 20 man roster. Free agency is very thin so it seems like bidding a lot wouldnt kill you since FAs this good may not come around. Any thoughts? I know this may be geared more towards Fantasy Advice but I wanted to discuss strategies and what not also, not just the individual player. Thanks guys!

You bid based on how badly you want a player. It's true good ones come along very rarely and some guys will shoot their wad on them. If you've been in the league awhile you can usually see a trend in how teams bid, but if this is new to the league it's a lot harder. Also be careful to not use all your money as you may need an injury/bye week replacement late in the year and most teams require you have at least a $1 to pick guys up.

How badly do you want them? How deep is your rosters at the position? How deep is it at other positions in case you need a bye week filler or another player is injured? Spend as much as YOU think it's worth. You can blow all $100 on him, but then you are SOL for anything else.

FWIW, I bid 63 to get him in a league with the same format. Next highest was 54. You have to figure that the gems are going to emerge within the first 3-4 weeks of the season, you should target your high $$$ acquisitions then. After that, it's just pulling bodies for injury replacements for the most part.
