Every pick on your board is scored once the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft is complete. Here's how points are calculated:
Exact Pick — +3 points You predicted the right player in the right slot. This is the highest-value outcome per pick and counts toward the streak bonus.
Round 1 Player — +1 point Your picked player was drafted in Round 1, but not in the slot you predicted. You still earn partial credit.
Miss — 0 points Your picked player was not drafted in Round 1, or the wrong player was selected for that slot. No points are awarded.
Consecutive Exact Picks Streak — +10 points If you nail 5 or more consecutive exact picks in a row, you earn a 10-point bonus. This can be a significant score boost, so aim for clusters of confident picks together.
Bonus Questions — +1 point each After submitting your picks, answer 5 bonus questions worth 1 point each (5 points max). These also serve as the tiebreaker if two players finish on the same total score.
Maximum possible score 96 points from exact picks (32 x 3), plus the streak bonus, plus 5 bonus question points — making a perfect board extremely valuable.
