The Las Vegas SuperContest is a largest NFL picks contest. Last year winner, CH BALLERS, took home $726,000 in prize money and got a record of 76.1% win percentage. (52.5% to break even in sports gambling for the uninitiated.)

The interesting thing about the SuperContest is that very contestants picks are made public every Saturday and my site keep track of their picks and does consensus analysis. This give users 1 days to act on the information.

I just released it 3 weeks ago for the start of this year NFL season. Not really looking to monetize it yet, but traffic is increasing every day.
