Playoff System
During the season each team will play the other teams at least once (division mates play each other twice). Also each week, every team plays against the median score in the league. The top two players from each division (by record) make the playoffs.
The other 6 teams fall to the consolation bracket where they will play to reset the divisions the following year. Each of the top 3 teams in the consolation bracket will draft their league mates in a linear draft at the conclusion of the season.
Payouts
There are several payouts at the end of the season:
- Division champs (3) at the end of regular season: $100 each
- Following the playoffs:
- 1st Place overall: $400
- 2nd Place overall: $250
- 3rd Place overall: $100
- Pro-Bowl winning division $200 (to be split amongst all teams in winning division)
Rookie Draft
A three-round rookie drafts will take place each year after the conclusion of the NFL draft.
Rookie draft order (linear, not a snake draft) is set using the reverse order of "Max Points For" throughout the regular season. Keep in mind this might be different than how teams finish in the playoffs.

Taxi Protocol
You may place any Y1 rookies into the taxi spot. They can remain there until they have 2 years of NFL experience, at which point they must be moved out of the taxi on the roster or dropped.
You can move players into the taxi up until the first week of the season. After this, once you remove a player, they cannot go back into the taxi.
Pro-Bowl
The last week of the NFL season (Week 18) we'll have a special Head-Head-Head all-star mode where the three divisions will build teams to play against each other.
Teams must consist of at least 2 skills players from each division team and will fill a standard roster. The winning division will split a $200 cash prize between all the teams in the division.
