More Ways to
Compete.
Barrel of Playoffs is a salary-cap showdown you won’t find anywhere else. Monkey Madness is a free survivor pool for everyone. Week 18 Brawl lets you call out any team for a head-to-head challenge. Fantasy doesn’t have to end after the regular season.
Barrel of Playoffs
A salary-cap playoff game you won’t find on any other platform. Build your roster from a shared player pool, survive each round, and ride your picks all the way to the Super Bowl.
How It Works
Every player starts with a default $200 salary cap budget, commissioner configurable
Bid on NFL playoff players in a live auction — the same player can end up on multiple rosters
Your roster scores across all 4 playoff rounds — Wild Card through the Super Bowl
When a player's team gets eliminated, their value shifts — adapt or go down with them
Why It Hits Different
No exclusive picks — Patrick Mahomes can be on every roster. It's about the price you paid, not the luck of your draft slot.
Blow your budget on two studs or spread it across a deep roster? Every dollar matters.
When a team gets knocked out, every manager with those players feels it. The board shifts every round.
Wild Card, Divisional, Conference Championship, Super Bowl — your roster rides the entire postseason.

Week 18 Brawl
On every other platform, Week 18 is meaningless. Not here. Challenge any team in your league to a one-week, head-to-head showdown with custom stakes, punishments, or bragging rights on the line.
Pick any team in your league and throw down the challenge. They can accept or dodge — either way, the whole league sees it.
Both sides agree on custom stakes, punishments, or bragging rights. Draft Monkeys records the challenge; it does not handle dues or escrow.
End the season with a statement. Beat the guy who talked trash all year. Settle the score when it counts.
You're not limited to one challenge — take on as many opponents as you dare. More brawls, more bragging rights, more glory.
$5/season

“Week 18 is garbage time”
Not anymore.
Real Stakes.
Real Rewards.
Seven formats plus four draft types, including Barrel of Playoffs — a salary-cap NFL postseason game nobody else offers. Dual win system, full IDP, and custom scoring tools.
Built-In
Community.
Forums, trash talk channels, trade discussions — it’s all baked into the platform. No group chats scattered across three apps. Your league has its own space with bylaws, draft rules, and a dedicated channel for talking smack.
Ready for a Real Fantasy League?
One that doesn’t tell you how to play. One with real customization, seven formats, four draft types, and a draft room that actually works. Public launch opens Summer 2026 at draftmonkeys.win.
