Forfeited picks

2020 Resolution JC-2A picks

In November 2020, the league passed 2020 Resolution JC-2A, which rewards teams for developing minority candidates for head coach and/or general manager positions.[2] The resolution rewards teams whose minority candidates are hired away for one of those positions by awarding draft picks. These draft picks are at the end of the third round, after standard compensatory picks; if multiple teams qualify, they are awarded by draft order in the first round. These picks are in addition to, and have no impact on, the standard 32 compensatory picks.[3]
