About these rights
Uses the RosterLabs baseline for 2027 first-round rights, including the linked second-round and future obligations described above. It does not apply draft-asset trades made in your roster scenario. This tool identifies linked second-round rights without assigning second-round pick numbers.
Eight conditional situations are modeled. Standalone second-round chains are outside this release. Rights reviewed September 6, 2026.
