You are playing a team or competing with a team that has an injured player and/or bye week player leaving them with no one at a position. They have limited FAAB funds. You have a lot. You bid on 2 or 3 of the top players at the position they need, just above what they can bid.
I see. However, I don't know how effective that is at this point. There is almost no value left on the waivers at the league I'm in. A WR pickup for example may give you 5 pts on average. Most of them will likely end up with zero catches. If you are bid blocking 2-3 players do you have 2-3 players to drop and pick up this filth? In the long term, you could be hurting yourself more than your opponent.
