1. Log in to Yahoo! and go to your fantasy league's main page. Look at the team standings; there is a column that shows waiver priority. Look at your team to see what your waiver priority number is. This is usually based on where a team drafted, with the first drafting team given lowest priority. (But it changes... see * below)
2. Navigate to the available player's page. Under the owner column, the player is either listed as FA, which means free agent, or W, which means waivers. If the player is on waivers, a date will be in parentheses after the W. This is the date that the player is to become a member of the team with the highest waiver priority that claimed him or a free agent if he clears waivers.
3. Click on the green plus sign if you would like to add a player who is on waivers. Then select the player from you team that you wish to drop should you acquire the player. Once you confirm your waiver claim, you will see the pending waiver claim at the top of your team page.
4. Check the transactions page on the date the player is set to be placed on a team. If he was placed on your team, you were the team with the highest waiver priority to claim him. If he is on someone else's team, then that team had higher waiver priority than your team. i.e., I'm sure a couple of you put in a waiver request for new Lions WR2 Ryan Broyles. John's team had a pretty high waiver number, so he probably beat all of you to it. But now he is reset to 11.
*Once you make a successful waiver claim, your team's waiver priority is dropped to the bottom on the list. Keep this in mind when making a waiver claim and be sure the move is worth giving up your waiver priority status. i.e., Will didn't need to use his waiver request for Dallas Defense. No one else was going to pick them up.
**If you drop someone, you are ineligible to pick them back up via waivers; they must clear to free agency.
