Per Rule 15.5 - Rewards for Volunteer substitutes.
After the conclusion of the season and before the rookie draft, the commissioner will hold a lottery using the information provided through Rule 15.2. For each game played as a substitute, the member who volunteered will be given one credit. Credits earned will be entered into a random lottery to distribute rookie draft choices given up by teams penalized for non-participation. Rookie draft choices given up by a previous owner through penalty will be retained by the new owner but will be added as supplemental picks in each applicable draft round for the purpose of the non-participation lottery. Example: A number two pick in the second round (draft choice 2.2) forfeited by a previous owner will be retained by the new owner. The penalized pick will be added to the round as pick 2.25. If no rookie draft picks were forfeited, the league will award a supplemental 5th round rookie draft pick, the final pick of the 5th round, using the process described above (this pick is not tradable).

No Rookie Draft Picks were forfeited in 2019, so a lottery will be held for a pick at the end of the 5th round in the 2020 Rookie Draft. The teams earning "credits" in 2019 were:
BAY-1
CLE-1
DES-2
EDI-1
INV-1
RGG-3
SAL-1
TAM-4
WAR-1

The lottery will be held Saturday, March 28, using the Wisconsin Lottery Pick 3 game. https://wilottery.com/lottogames/pick3.aspx. These teams have been assigned the following lottery numbers for the drawing:
BAY 001-066
CLE 067-132
DES 133-264
EDI 265-330
INV 331-396
RGG 397-594
SAL 595-660
TAM 661-924
WAR 925-990
000, and 991-999 will be ignored. If the winning number is one of those, the will will then use the March 29 drawing.
