I am requesting that the current allowance we have for Blind Bidding be raised from it's current $50 to $100.


$50 has always put too many owners out of money by seasons end.

Raise Blind Bidding allowance from $50 to $100 , $1 min. bid, $5 for waiver pick up

Mike, I get the $1 min bid part, but what's the $5? Is that the FCFS following blind bidding?

Yes, currently the league charges $5 of ANY waiver wire transaction not done via Blind Bidding

Voted and I'll comment only because I'm in the minority. The $50 limit made it involve more full season strategy in FCFS grabs. If you don't think ahead and grab a guy on the cheap before the entire huddle nation is talking about him, you are stuck with 10 moves in FCFS before the end of the waiver period. The $100 means 20 moves (max) in FCFS, which eliminate the need to strategize as much and dop the blind bidding. That's why I don't like the increase.

On the other hand, I fully believe the blind bidding will increase for certain players to amounts we haven't seen before which is OK because we all start with the same BCS dollars.


What about $75 instead, 15 FCFS grabs?

I would change my vote and agree to this, if there is any momentum

I just don't want to make a big enough jump that it is almost like unlimited transactions. I'm sure some true FF nerds out there can make more sense of the impact than I can.
