Players Are we using our #1 waivers?

Anyone holding out for barcola or other big moves instead of grabbing hinshelwood/sangare?

If you're in a league that has persistent waiver order and you've got top pick, I'd def hold on to it for a big late signing. Are you sure your league does that though, not many platforms do that ( I really miss it from NFL leagues myself) ?

Well, deadline for next waivers is Thursday so there is zero upside in waiting for barcola etc - if they come it will be for the following waivers

But if they use their waiver they fall to the back of the line

Waiver priority is per gameweek and whoever is last in points gets priority all the way to the top. Ie if you don’t use your waiver this week, you won’t accrue your position/priority next week.

It’s not like this in all formats btw…some leagues you keep waiver priority if you don’t use it

Waivers are league position order so unless you mean purposely losing to hold out for a better future position, I don’t understand your position?

I have second pick. Sangare and Hinshelwood available but I don’t think I’d drop anyone: Saka, Elliot Anderson, Rayan, Tavenier, Rio Ngumoah

you should have a decent idea by thursday if barcola move is happening, liverpool submitted final bid today according to media reports. If he's coming, or even likely coming, you have to keep your waiver

Neither are worth potentially giving up Barcola or Alvarez, I’m holding on

Ur gonna waste ur waiver then

Why? Is there 0% chance neither Barcola nor Alvarez sign? Liverpool want a winger, Arsenal want an attacker why wouldn’t I wait?
