The team with the worst record gets the first pass on all players. If the bottom team puts in a claim on all waiver wire players, they will get them all - of course, they will have to make room on their roster for them.
I believe the team with the worst record
SHOULD get the first choice at the best players on waiver, but not the second best, third best, and ect on a given week. The
ONLY way this should be possible is
IF no other teams put in a waiver claim the same week.
If two or more people put a waiver claim in a given week, then the one with the worst record should get the first choice. Then after the team with the worst record makes their pick, then the team with the second best record
should have priority. If the team with the second best record
ONLY put a waiver request in for the best player, then they forfeit their claim and it should go to the next team that put in a claim for the second best player should get it, and so on
until it returns to the team with the worst record.
By not following this, you have created a disadvantage towards the other owners who wish to remain competitive. By not following this you have eliminated parity within the league. By not following this you have made more teams privileged while taking away a chance to lesser teams. By not following this you have created a way cheaters who use Multis to exploit the system. By not following this you basically said "The owner with the worst record gets the first pick, second pick, third pick, and ect...in the next season's draft." In other words, by not following this, you basically gave a green light on UNBALANCED, UNFAIR trades with the one who did not who cut the player without being penalized.
Please take the time to think this through.
