you have to make sure you list multiple players PER ROUND if you want to ensure that you get SOMEBODY. In other words, I could enter all of this for Round 1:
Add Walter Payton $10 Drop Barry Sanders
Add Herschel Walker $8 Drop Barry Sanders
Add Joe Montana $10 Drop John Elway
Add Jim Kelly $5 Drop John Elway
Then, in the comments, I would say:
Payton 3 yr contract, Walker 2 yrs, Montana 3 years, Kelly 1 yr.
You would then have to submit more requests for round 2, if you wanted multiple acquisitions.

OK, lets say I want an RB.... but only ONE. So I blind bid one one.... and want a conditional bid on the second RB if I lose the bid on the first RB. How is that done?
Just like my example above. A few things to remember:
- You can only acquire one player per round.
- You list multiple players for the same round to ensure that you will at least get a player in that round.
- Multiple players bid on in the same round can have different dollar amounts.
- If you want to acquire more than one player, you must bid in multiple rounds (goes back to the first point).
So, let's say you want a RB, and only one RB. I'm going to assume then that, the player you get will not determine who you drop. In other words, it doesn't matter which player you get... you're still going to drop the same guy, regardless. In that case, it's pretty simple... you could bid something like this:
ROUND 1 WAIVERS requests:
Add Walter Payton $5 Drop John Riggins
Add Tony Dorsett $3 Drop John Riggins
Add Earl Campbell $3 Drop John Riggins
Add Darren Nelson $2 Drop John Riggins
The list could go on and on, depending on how sure you wanted to be that you get a RB. Since you're only bidding in round 1, though, there is no possible way you can get more than one player.
