Teams were required to fill the 11 squad positions by selecting four backs, two ends, two tackles, two guards, and a center with their first 11 picks. Before each position was selected, teams drew lots to determine the selection order. Though professional teams used dedicated offensive and defensive units, the league did not want to go 22 rounds before starting unrestricted drafting.

Territorial draft

To begin the draft, each of the eight teams were awarded a territorial or "bonus" selection to guarantee a local flavor that would boost the financial prospects of each franchise. These regional picks did not follow a specific order. Rather, they were mutually agreed upon by the other teams.{{cite news|title=The AFL's first draft|url=https://www.profootballhof.com/news/2009/10/news-the-afl-s-first-draft/|website=profootballhof.com|date=October 28, 2009|access-date=July 7, 2025}}

Regular draft

{{Under construction|date=July 2025}}

=First selections=

After the territorial picks, a consensus was reached on the top eight players at each position—at the time, college players were typically categorized by their offensive positions only. The names for each position were then placed in a hat and randomly drawn by each team. This process repeated until each franchise had made 33 selections, or three full offensive units. Those selections were considered as the first round of the draft.

Allocation draft

For the allocation draft, the other seven AFL teams each froze eleven players, and Oakland selected a total of 24 players from the ranks of the other teams' "unfrozen" lists. The number of players originally drafted for the eighth AFL franchise, but who were signed by other teams, combined with the process of the allocation draft, virtually guaranteed that the Raiders would have the worst team in the AFL in its first year. In spite of this, they managed to sign future stars Jim Otto and Wayne Hawkins, two men who played the entire ten years of the American Football League.
