As soon as your league deadline passes, all picks will be displayed for your league.  As a manager, form within your control panel you can 1) see which players have yet to turn in picks, 2) view players picks. Note that if you view players picks, this will be recorded in the Manager's Change log that everyone can see on the Settings -> League Settings page.

I have my league setup to have a pick deadline of Monday evening so that players who may forget to get their pick in on Sunday will still have a chance to do so if they have not picked the teams in the Monday night game.  But, this means that the picks from Sunday will not be seen until Monday evening.  Is there any way to provide an option to show picks once that pick is "locked in" -- ie, once the game starts for a particular pick, it can then be seen by everyone rather than having to wait to see the picks until the pick deadline?

I just put it on the feature request list, can't promise though when it would be implemented.

Hi Albert,

I forgot to mention that I recently added this feature, just go in to your league settings and change the 'Display Player's Pick' setting to 'After their picked game has started'.

If you're using this option keep in mind that this feature could create an advantage / disadvantage late in the season.  For example, 2 guys left in the pool, one guy picks the Thursday or Saturday game and loses, other guy who's picking on Sunday may decide to change his pick based on the fact that his opponent has already los (e.g. use a strong team that he was saving for the end of the season).
