Why Do Draft Picks Have a Value of Zero?

There are a few reasons a draft pick might show zero value in the app or trade calculator.

You are in Contender Mode

Draft picks do not have values in Contender Mode — that format is designed for redraft leagues where picks are not traded. Switch to Dynasty Mode in your league settings and pick values will appear.

Future rookie picks are showing zero in Dynasty Mode

First check which mode you are in. Zero values are correct and expected in Contender Mode — see above. This section is about Dynasty Mode only.

In Dynasty Mode, upcoming rookie draft picks should carry a value for roughly the next three draft classes. If picks for those years are showing zero while you are in Dynasty Mode, that is not expected — please contact support and tell us which pick years are affected and which league, and we will look into it.

The pick was recently traded

If a pick was just traded in your league, it may take a moment for the app to refresh the updated pick ownership and values. Try syncing your league manually.

The pick is not mapped in our system

Occasionally a pick format or year does not match a standardized value in our system. If this seems to be the case, contact support and let us know which pick is showing zero and in which league.

Quick fix to try

Force quit the app and reopen it, then manually sync your league. If you are in Dynasty Mode and the values are still zero after that, contact support — do not assume it will resolve on its own. (In Contender Mode, zero is the correct value and nothing is wrong.)
