NFFC & FFWC First FAAB Run

Your Summer Draft Is Already Outdated

Roster cuts, late signings, trades and injuries have created new fantasy opportunities. Tuesday night is your first chance to act.

First FAAB Deadline

Tuesday at 11 PM ET

Sixteen players. Three priority tiers. One opening-week trap you cannot overlook.

FullTime’s first FAAB board identifies the players whose value has changed since summer drafts—and separates potential difference-makers from names that merely generated August noise.

Inside the Premium FAAB Report

✓ The potential priority addition with immediate work and season-changing upside

✓ Rookie receivers whose paths to meaningful snaps changed late

✓ Tight ends who matter most in premium and deeper formats

✓ A Tuesday-to-Saturday plan that protects your remaining FAAB

Why Tuesday Matters

Players from Wednesday’s Seattle–New England game and Thursday’s Los Angeles Rams–San Francisco game will not be eligible after Tuesday’s run. If the player you want is involved in either opener, waiting until Saturday is not an option.
