What is FAAB in fantasy football?
FAAB is free agent acquisition budget: a fixed pot of fake money you bid against your league to win waiver claims.
How it works in your league
A typical budget is $100 for the whole season. Spend big on a locked-in starting running back, spend single dollars on a flier, and keep a reserve for injury weeks in the fantasy playoffs.
