Consolation 1st place2014 FFWC entry
2nd place2014 RotoBowl Entry
3rd place2014 RotoBowl Entry
That comes to...$218,800

 Plus 34 leagues prizes at $12,500 each=$425,000
That is $643,000 plus they are giving away a free entry ($1,650 value for every 20 entries in May as part of their May Madness promotion...I would expect 200 of their 408 maximum entries in May so another $16,500 given away.
That comes to $660,300 in payouts in my estimation.
They will only take in $673,200 from the 408 entries at a $1,650 fee. 
That comes to a 98% payout rate.....what a deal!

Here are some more details on the FFWC


Sign up as an individual, or with a trusted co-manager. Teams will be separated into 12 – team leagues and you will be assigned a draft position. You'll be able to monitor your victories (and your competition's failures) in real-time, online. At the end of the regular season, the top 4 teams from each league will be eligible for the post-season. And that's when things get really serious as you vie for a grand prize of $150,000. The winner at the end of the post-season takes home the cash, the title, and the knowledge that they're the best.
$150,000 Grand Prize - $12,500 in League Prizes - Win up to $10k!
"May Madness" Early Bird Special - Reserve your team with a $200 Deposit before May 31, and be entered into a drawing for a FREE 2013 Main Event Team (value $1,650). Drawings will be held for every 20 teams reserved.
