Calling All Geeks!  Win Cash In DraftStreet.com’s FREE Fantasy Football Challenge

It was so much fun the first time, we decided to do it again! 

We rarely stray from the goodness of College Fantasy Football here at CFG Headquarters.  But when we sense a chance to steal some cold, hard cash from our brothers in the seedy underworld of the NFL, our ears perk up.  And that’s exactly the case here.

CollegeFootballGeek.com has once again teamed up with DraftStreet.com to present an exclusive fantasy football challenge for our readers.  It’s a ONE WEEK challenge (instant gratification!) and it’s FREE to play.

For the second time this season, we’ve ponied up $250.00 in cash to divvy out amongst the top six contestants in the Challenge. Here are the payouts:

1^st Place - $90.00
2^nd Place - $60.00
3^rd Place - $40.00
4^th Place - $30.00
5^th Place - $20.00
6^th Place - $10.00


To get hooked up, simply CLICK HERE and follow the steps to register. 

Here’s the skinny:
 
The Challenge takes place during Week 4 of the NFL season – that’s THIS WEEK!  It’ll be a Salary Cap format, using an NFL player pool, where you’ll receive $100,000 virtual fantasy dollars from which to build your winning team.  The combined fantasy salaries (as set by the DraftStreet team) of the players you select must stay within the limits of the cap.   Don’t worry knuckleheads, they do all of the math for you.

There are some juicy possibilities this week with the red hot Matthew Stafford (salary cap number of $18,616) facing off against the Cowboys, and Darren "Run DMC" McFadden (salary cap number of $16,849) going up against the struggling Patriots defense.  At the end of the NFL Week 4, DraftStreet will tally up the scores and whoever finishes in the Top 6 of our challenge wins some cash-ola!
