If you're waive then you go through the waiver system where a team can claim your contract. If you're cut you're just a FA.

<4 years experience = waived, then teams can put a claim on you (based closely on draft order, not sure why it's not exactly the same). If you're claimed by a team they pick up the remainder of your previous contract. If you're not claimed then you're a regular FA. 4+ years experience = free agent and you can sign with any team.
