The thing about sports aside from the adrenaline given out by the players, (it) is also the prizes that makes everyone want to win. Of course, everything has to pay off. In this case, the fantasy football cash reward is the most coveted prize and everyone is eyeing for this. The thing is, even if you have an above-average team, you will still have a chance to win something. Unlike the other contests wherein only the champion and the runner-ups have chances of winning, with fantasy football, the other teams have that opportunity to walk away with something.

The top fantasy football prize for the budget, premium and high stakes leagues usually have a $500 guaranteed bonus prize to the topmost scorer of all the teams. Now, this is something people want to get. Five hundred dollars may not be enough for some, but at least there is money involved. More so, when you compare the other fantasy sports sites, they may not even offer this much cash prize to the underdogs. Just be thankful for this chance.

The first place fantasy football prize under the budget leagues is $250, $500 for the Premium Leagues and $1,400 for the High Stakes leagues. The second place prizes are $100, $175 and $350 respectively. A fifty dollar-worth gift certificate is given to the third placer under the budget leagues. On the other hand, $100 and $225 are given to the third placers for the Premium and High Stakes Leagues. For the fourth and fifth placers, they have the same prizes. Prizes are $150 for the High Stakes Leagues, $100 for those under the Premium Leagues and $25 worth of gift certificates for the ones under the Budget Leagues.

If you are thinking whether those who ranked sixth place and onwards will be able to receive fantasy football prizes, the answer is yes. Sixth placers up to the tenth placers will get the same prize of $10 worth of gift certificates from the Budget Leagues, $50 worth gift certificates for the Premium Leagues and none for those coming from the High Stakes Leagues. There is also a prize for teams ranking 11th up to the 25th. Ten dollars worth of gift certificates will be given to those coming from the aforementioned ranking under the Budget League. However, there are no prizes for those teams under the Premium and High Stakes Leagues.

Whatever prize the team gets, surely they had a good time playing fantasy football. They were able to prove themselves once again to their fans that they can still work well even if their teammates are not the same ones they have on the professional league. With this, do yourself a favor and cheer for the team you think deserves to be at the top. Assess the rankings of the players before deciding which one to pick. It can be quite a hard thing to do but you have to. Cheering for your favorite teams and players add fun and enjoyment once you watch the game.
