Spend the allowed money each week to field a fantasy team lineup. You can select different players each week or keep the same if you choose. You can spend as little or as much of the money as you want each week. The amount you can spend does not roll over to the next week, however, so it's best to use most or all of it.

Update your team value each week if you are playing in a Yahoo! league. Click on the link labeled "Update Team Value" on your team page. This adjusts the dollar values for the current players on your roster to the amounts they are worth that particular week, as the values change week to week. The updater will only adjust salary downward and not increase it, so it is always advantageous to do this.
