NFX·WAIVER WIZARD
NFX Waiver Wizard

The wire is public. The price isn't.

Every bid we place is on this board before waivers run, priced by the NFX FAAB framework and stamped as a numbered receipt. Each slip is graded against a positional bar, misses included. The board is free. Your own leagues run on NFX Pro.

01 — The board

Every league. One screen.

02 — The slips

Numbered. Public. Graded.

03 — How a bid gets priced

Four bands. Then the room.

25–60%League-winnerEvery-week starter potential. Projects top-12 at RB/WR or top-6 at QB/TE in your league, and fills a hole you actually have.
8–20%Spot starterHigh-upside flex or a lineup gain of 1.5+ per week the rest of the way. Real points, not a story.
1–5%Bye fill / handcuffCovers a bye you have no answer for, or backs up your RB1. Kickers and defenses never leave this band.
0–1%SpeculativeOwnership moving, role not yet. Open-bid wait or a dollar. In dynasty these become stash calls.

Inside the band the Wizard moves the number for three things: your remaining budget against the room's average, how many comparable players sit behind him on the wire, and how many other teams would start him tomorrow. Priority leagues get a claim order instead, and the Wizard only burns your priority on the top two bands.

Only if it says "this league is private": copy your two ESPN keys

Stay on that ESPN page, logged in. Press F12 (Mac: I). A panel opens. Click Application along its top edge (don't see it? click the » arrows). On the left, click Cookies, then https://fantasy.espn.com. Find the row named SWID — double-click its Value, copy it, paste it in the SWID box. Do the same for the row named espn_s2. Close the panel. You never do this again.

Phones can't show this panel — do Step 2 once on a computer. Commissioner? Skip keys for your whole league: in ESPN go to League → Settings → Basic Settings → Make League Viewable to Public → Yes. Then everyone connects with just the link.

Hit RUN — with or without a code

No code: a free preview — your holes and the top three names on your wire. NFX Pro code (it's in your welcome email): every bid, every drop, the whole board, streams, stash, and the alerts. If the Wizard can't tell which team is yours, it lists the teams — tap yours.

Your keys let the Wizard read your league the same way your browser does. They are used for this request and not stored. To cut them off at any time, sign out of ESPN and sign back in — ESPN issues new ones.
