Found this:

Sleeper allows year-round player movement so that fantasy owners in keeper or dynasty leagues can continue to add players.

Once your league's championship comes to an end, you have officially reached the offseason.

If your league would like to allow teams to make moves, we strongly encourage you to transition your league to the next year immediately. Any moves made following the championship will NOT carry over when your league is transitioned. You must transition first and then make the desired moves.

It's important to know that your Regular Season Waiver options can require different settings.

Offseason Waivers​

There are a few different waiver options but only the Daily Custom Waivers will apply to the offseason.

You will need to enable this option if you'd like to have waivers in the offseason. Once your draft is scheduled for the upcoming season, you'll also need to turn on "Allow Moves Pre-Draft".

FA - All players will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis for the entirety of the day. The only ones who may not be are any that have recently been dropped, but only if you have the time players are on waivers after drop setting enabled.

Waivers - This will put all players on waivers for the day. They will then process at your selected time. After that processing time, all players will be on waivers again for at least the remainder of that day.

Locked - This will prevent players from being added via free agency or waivers for the entire day.

Waivers -> FA - This will have all players on waivers clear at the selected processing time. After that, all players will be free agents for at least the remainder of the day.

If you do not want any waivers or free agency in the offseason, you'll need to enable this setting.

Not sure what youre asking?
Do you just want to turn waivers on?
Thats a toggle in league settings. Just turn the lock off to open the player pool.

Wanted to have all FAs run thru a waiver cycle so it wasn't just a free for all immediately after the draft

Got it figured with Harold's help

Thats not a bad idea.

Now that I've done it, here's how I'm going to do it next season:

When using the custom waiver feature it only allows 1 day waiver period. I tried to set it for THR and FRI but waivers ran at 2am this morning then players were back on waivers for another run today, instead of being a 2-day cycle. So after our draft completed, there was about 12hrs to submit your waiver claims, about 1/3 of the league did.

After next year's draft completes, I'll lock all rosters for that day and run a full day of waivers the following day to make sure everyone has time for claims.

We just have a 4 round rookie draft.
And with full participation in the draft, i tell them as soon as the draft is over, i open up the player pool.

Historically, less than a half dozen players get added after the draft. This year, i think only 2.

My SF league had a total of 4 additions after the draft. So not a lot.

Just looked at D2.
Looks like no one burned a waiver priority after the draft, but there were a couple transactions the day after waivers cleared. And a couple more the next day.

And we go 5 rounds in D2, so that would cover a handful of potential waiver claims/moves, prob very similar at end of the day.

True. But some owners (who shall be nameless) are notorious for trading away their picks.
