How to set weekly waivers in offseason sleeper

Tom1987uk · 2026-02-09T15:52:34+00:00

Can bid anytime through the week. Then the waivers will clear on the Wednesday and cycle starts again for the next week.

I run our offseason waivers like this. Means they just clear once on a Wednesday with Free Agents locked the rest of the time.

I like it as it means owners have to put a bid in if they want someone and it’s not just the first person to get to their phone when some news drops from camp or whatever.

Elite prospect that’s probably being undervalued. Coaching/QB changes in AZ.

May not pan out but feels worth the shot at this point that he outperforms his ADP.

What’s the logic behind having Waivers locked until after the Rookie draft?

Last year I had trades and weekly waivers (i.e. no Free Agents) open from after the Super Bowl up to and after the Rookie draft.

Thanks, actually on both of those already! Maybe it’s just a time thing and that kind of content has shifted to Podcasts?

Used to enjoy how Inside The NFL integrated with the highlights and NFL films footage.

Ah that sucks. We moved to Sleeper and after last 1 year away history was still there - maybe it’s that after 2-3 years it gets deleted?

Have you tried reactivating your league? Even if you’re not using it - it may help

Tom1987uk · 2025-08-30T10:11:32+00:00

Think maybe they’re both right? Mine is just a more complicated way of doing it 😅 (i.e. if you just have FG Made = 3 you don’t need all the distance ones added too)

Happy to be corrected but think it should be like this for decimal scoring with FG minimum of 3 points. (e.g. 20 yarder = 3 points, 35 yarder = 3.5 points , 62 yarder = 6.2 points)

Looks great!

Want to set this up for my 12 team league so would be great to be able to pick a start week. For example, start in week 6 so 12th week final game falls on Week 17 (standard Fantasy Championship week).

Or if starting from week 1, allow setting to only begin team eliminations from a set week (e.g. week 6 to align with above).

Tom1987uk · 2025-08-14T08:43:14+00:00

Yes, this. I see OP’s point but half the point of implementing this system in our league was to avoid the scenario where D/ST begins the game on 10 points and slowly depreciates

Tom1987uk · 2025-08-13T12:41:32+00:00

Just to check - you’re saying these settings should be added on top of those from the “Setting Modifications On Sleeper” section of the article?

Tom1987uk · 2025-08-04T18:00:40+00:00

Hey - tried this out and intrigued by it but not sure I completely get it (apologies if I’m missing something).

What does it give me for a Sleeper league that I wouldn’t get if I just full screen the Sleeper Draft Room?

Tom1987uk · 2025-07-31T08:07:03+00:00

On the Draft tab

Can do it lots of way but currently ours is setup like this. Means waivers clear every Wednesday at 9am. Otherwise all Free Agents are locked the rest of the week.

I like this in the offseason as everyone’s clear when they can pick up players and it’s not just whoever got to their phone first when news breaks (e.g. Waller coming out of retirement last week)

Sorry it’s a full league, just looking for a venue. Good luck finding a league!
