NFL Waiver Wire (1 Viewer)

[CanadianNFLJunkie]

I've asked this before I'm sure, but I don't think I got the answer.

Around this time of the year, when a player like a Chris Chambers go on waivers, teams make claims if they want him. The NFL would eventually reward the team with the worse record, that player. Now I assume it's based on strength of schedule somehow, now and in the off-season. BUT what happens after Week 1? Strength of schedule works then??? Minnesota beats Cleveland 34-20 in Week 1, Philly beats Carolina 38-10 and Seattle beats up St.Louis 28-0, so how would a waiver claim work then after ONE WEEK? St Louis would have first rights????? Carolina would have second dibs? Then Cleveland?????

Anyone know FOR SURE?

Don't quote me on this, but I pretty sure it's based on record.

Boy you're a big help. So after Week 1 there are 16 teams at 1-0 and 16 teams at 0-1 so who has FIRST dibs then? That's what I am asking.

did some checking around and found this excerpt from this KC Chiefs blog article."This waiver wire order is reset on September 28th to reflect the current worst win/loss records in the league."

that seems to make sense that you use prior season's records until enough games are played this year to justify a new ranking.
