Do I need to check in on the AF app instead of the DL app in hopes of an offer? Can I assume that I won't get any MQDs on a buy up (above and beyond my ticketed fare MQDs on a DL flight number).

Thanks!
Yes, the AF app will offer upgrade after you checkin. Pricing varies.

You can use the DL PNR in AF app to pull up reservation.

No additional MQM/MQD as you're not reticketed in new class of service, just seated in the higher cabin..

If you elect upgrade all the way to First, don't forget to ask for your free wifi code onboard. The system will see you in W still when try and login. They have to get a code for you to get in free.
