Rostered: the share of leagues with him on a roster in week 1, the latest finished week before these pickups. FAAB bid: the median winning bid as a share of the league's budget, with the middle half of bids in brackets, in leagues that report their budget (Sleeper, ESPN and some MFL and Fleaflicker leagues). Value: his PPR trade value, with the top player at 100, from the latest week most leagues have valued. Wait for free agency: fewer than 20 leagues paid a bid for him, so most picked him up for nothing.

Common questions

How much FAAB should I bid on Devaughn Vele?

In week 2, the leagues that won Devaughn Vele on waivers paid a median of 12% of their FAAB budget, and half of the winning bids fell between 7% and 20%. A bid that beats that range wins most leagues.

Who was the most-added player in week 2?

Devaughn Vele, picked up in 46% of leagues. Devin Singletary (41%) and Rashod Bateman (32%) came next.

What is FAAB?

Free agent acquisition budget: each team gets a budget for the season and bids on free agents in secret, and the highest bid wins the player. Bids here are shares of each league's budget, so a $5 bid of $100 and a $50 bid of $1,000 both count as 5%.

Where does this come from?

From real fantasy leagues connected to Fantasy Hall of Fame from Yahoo, Sleeper, ESPN, CBS, MFL, Fleaflicker and Fantrax: every add and drop that week. A league counts once however many times it moved a player, and a player shows once at least 20 leagues added or dropped him. No league or manager is identified.
