1950 AAFC dispersal draft


On December 9, 1949, the National Football League absorbed three teams from the All-America Football Conference.
The NFL held a dispersal draft on June 2, 1950 for players from the All-America Football Conference teams of the New York Yankees, Buffalo Bills, Chicago Hornets, and Los Angeles Dons. Most of the players from the Yankees had already been divided between the New York Giants and New York Yanks.
The draft order was determined by the order of finish of the 1949 season. Therefore, the draft order was:
  1. Baltimore Colts
  2. New York Yanks
  3. Green Bay Packers
  4. Detroit Lions
  5. Washington Redskins
  6. New York Giants
  7. Pittsburgh Steelers
  8. Chicago Cardinals
  9. Chicago Bears
  10. San Francisco 49ers
  11. Los Angeles Rams
  12. Cleveland Browns
  13. Philadelphia Eagles
Since the Colts and the Packers were the weakest teams, they were given a total of five extra draft picks each, divided at the end of rounds: 3, 5, 7 and 9.
Teams chose 140 players during the ten-round selection meeting.
