It might be too early for this type of league, but it's created and ready to go.
Last year I did one of these and had around 20 people in it. This year, looking to see if we can get the league max of 96 owners. Trying a different approach on payouts, but still have a large majority of the payout going to league winner.

League bylaws:
$10 via Leaguesafe - Majority Payout approval
If less than 20 owners join, payouts will be:
100% of dues will go to winner. To be eligible for winnings, must pay via Leaguesafe by Thursday September 8th by 6PM EST.
For example; If 19 owners join, $190 would go to sole winner
If 20 or more owners join and less than 40 owners join, payouts will be:
For all owners that survive through week 8, approximately $50 will be shared between these owners and paid out in whole dollar increments to the week 8 surviving teams (paid out at NFL season end). For example, if 17 owners survive, $3 each will be paid out to each owner (total of $51); if 9 owners survive, $6 each will be paid out to each owner (total of $54); if 3 owners survive, $12 each will be paid out to each owner (total of $48).
The remaining funds will be paid out to the sole winner. For example, if 39 owners join, $390 less approximately the $50 paid out for week 8 survivors will be paid to winner (approximately $340).
For each additional 20 owners bracket that join, an additional $50 will be added to the week 8 survivors payouts. So, if 40 to 59 owners join, an $100 will be shared in whole dollar increments to week 8 survivors and the remaining will be paid out to winner. For 60 to 79 owners, $150 will be shared. For 80 to 96 owners, $200 will be shared. This league can handle up to 96 owners,
Note: In the event that a week ends with all teams eliminated and not a sole winner (i.e. week 4 with 2 teams remaining and both teams do not survive), those teams from that week will be resurrected and will continue on until only one owner is remaining. If after 17 weeks, more than 1 team survives, the payouts will be split evenly among the remaining owners that survived week 17.
By joining this survivor league, you will be responsible for submitting your weekly pick timely. Failure to submit a pick each week will cause your team to be eliminated from the pool. The commissioner will not adjust any submitted survivor pool pick for any owner regardless of reason provided. In addition, you will be respectful of other owners. Once the NFL regular season starts and our deadline for payments has passed, no refunds will be issued.
How do I use the Survivor Pool page?
Answer:
This screen offers owners another non-fantasy gaming option for the league. In a survivor pool, each owner picks the winner of a single NFL matchup for the upcoming week of the season. Owners that choose correctly are allowed to predict the winner of the following week, while owners that make an incorrect pick are eliminated from this contest for future weeks. The catch is that each owner may only pick each NFL team once over the course of the entire season. For example, if an owner chooses the New England Patriots in week 1, he/she cannot select them again. In order to view the results, the commissioner must first add the "NFL Survivor Pool" home page module via the For Commissioners > Setup > Appearance Setup > Home Page Modules & Tabs Setup screen.
NOTE: The owner must pick the WINNER of an NFL game. In the case of an NFL tie, neither team wins, so the owner is out of the survivor contest.
Survivor picks will be revealed at the kickoff of the game for each corresponding pick.
