What if a player has no teams left to pick?

I increased my "Each team can be picked once" to 2 in the playoffs in order to give the remaining players all available teams to pick from. In the event I wind up having players wind up in the later playoff rounds with no teams to pick again after doing this, what would happen to a player that is left with no available teams to pick (ie they made it to the Super Bowl but have already picked both teams). Are they an automatic loss for that week if I do not change the settings to allow a pick again? Any thoughts are appreciated!

Hi Ryan... They would be issued a 'No Pick' which is the same as a loss (and an SoV = -10 if that matters to your league).
