What about the rest of the NFL calendar? In the weeks between the draft and Week 3, the draft order is what decides the order. Teams who pick at the top of the draft have higher priorities throughout the offseason and training camps. Whoever picks 32nd in the draft is the lowest team prioritized on the waiver wire until Week 3.
There aren't just rules for how the order is determined. There are designations teams make when moving on from a player. Not everyone who gets cut goes to the waiver wire. If a player has four or fewer seasons totaled in the NFL, they go on waivers, and the claiming process begins.
The rule is in effect from the offseason up until the trade deadline. However, that changes somewhat after the trade deadline.
