I'm in a top 3 satellite league and have notice a wide range of FA bids all the way from $400 for a player to $1. The Owner that won with the $400+ bid the second place owner had bid $190+. The ones that I won respectively went for $5 and $3.



My questions are does the winning owner have to pay the full winning bid price or just $1 more than the 2nd place bid?.



2nd Question a top 30-40 OF is available what is a fair bid so as not to extremely over pay for this player but not lose out on him buy being cheap. I was thinking somewhere between $50-100. This is the 1st week of the season and as everyones know you shouldn't blow your load so quick. lol

This OF would definitely be the 4th OF on my team.



Any advise/comments would be extremely appreciated

You can look up each league and get a good idea of the winning and runner up bids for similar players. There are no hard and fast rules - better to overbid and get the guy you want then to try to save a couple bucks for later. A player purchased today can help you for 25 weeks while the guy you get in the second half can only help for 1/2 the season. Good Luck.



You pay the winning bid not runner up plus $1.

the owner must pay full winning price.

If it was only $1 more, why wouldnt you bid $1000 (or the max you have) every time?
