Early Draft Slot Second Round Announcement:
All teams which are fully paid by MONDAY
will receive their FFPC Main Event draft positions
on Wednesday, August 19th.

As a reminder, this year's champ is bringing in a record $500,000 for his or her efforts, and the runner-up will be grabbing a cool $100,000 as well! Register for the 2020 FFPC Main Event now right here! Here are the details:

  • 75 live draft dates/times (Up from 59 last year)
  • $3,900,000 prize pool (Up $800,000 from last year)
  • After grabbing your first team, each additional team is $1500 online, $1625 live--a savings of $400 per each additional team.
Also, for the first time, you won't need to wait until late August to scratch that Main Event itch. We're happy to be offering 2020 FFPC Main Event drafts with two- and six-hour clocks right now. You can register right here, and slow Main Event leagues will start drafting as soon as they fill. That means you won't have to block off two hours of time to dedicate purely to drafting. You can pop in and out and make your picks at your convenience.

Turn $350 Into $500,000 with the FPC

The 2020 Footballguys Players Championship continues to fill up faster than normal, players--don't miss out! This competition features a guaranteed prize pool with a $500,000 grand prize and over $3,000,000 million total prize pool. That's right--we've doubled the grand prize to $500,000! The 2020 FPC contest is capped at 10,800 teams. All prizes are fully guaranteed.

Here are all the details on this year's competition:

  • Drafts going off daily
  • $3,100,000 prize pool (Up $800,000 from last year)
  • Teams are $350 each (or a three-pack of teams for $1000)

Remember, you now have the opportunity to draft to win $500,000 every day from now until the start of the NFL season.

Another new feature we just rolled out is that switching or leaving drafts both in the FPC and the rest of our FFPC drafts just became a whole lot more user-friendly. If you need to bounce out of a league, you won’t need to send an email to us anymore. All you have to do is click on the “EXIT LEAGUE” button on the league homepage. You then will remove yourself instantly as long as it is not less than 15 minutes before the start of your draft and fewer than 10 teams are registered.

We have numerous leagues filling up every day, so if you want to join, check out the schedule posted here, including afternoon drafts today:

It's Back: Get in the 2020 Terminator

Thomas Edison invented the light bulb? So what! The FFPC invented the Terminator format! This is truly a unique way to play fantasy football and we're proud to call it an FFPC exclusive.

By adding just a few tweaks to the standard Best Ball format, it completely alters it and creates this brand new format that has proven to be exciting and challenging. Did one of your players get injured or is under performing? Terminate him!

Here are the details on this year's competition:

  • $25,000 Grand Prize
  • $116,850 Prize Pool
  • 384 team cap
  • $350 entry
  • 3-pack for $1,000 (save $50)

You can pick whatever format you want to compete in as well.

Also, players, remember that you can use the FFPC mobile app for drafting directly as well. You can get these apps with the newest updates for your preferred mobile software provider at the links below:

As a reminder, if you've been searching for a "diet" version of our traditional Best Ball leagues, I invite you to hop into some of the new FFPC Best Ball Slim leagues we launched this season. Featuring 18-Round drafts with no kickers and defenses, these leagues will surely provide a new fun challenge to enjoy during drafting season. The starting lineup is as follows for this format:

  • 1 Quarterback
  • 2 Running Backs
  • 2 Wide Receivers
  • 1 Tight End
  • 2 Flexes (RB, WR, TE)

To get into the drafting action, jump in now and draft a team or two today.

Thanks for reading, everyone! Remember to join some dynasty start-up drafts before they're gone this year and some Main Event leagues to enjoy at Planet Hollywood or the comfort of your own home starting next week! And if you haven't already, make sure you're booking your discounted room on the Strip now.
