1960 American Football League Draft

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The draft for the 1960 American Football League season was held in late 1959, shortly after the organization of the AFL. The first AFL draft, lasting 33 rounds, took place on November 22, 1959. An additional draft of 20 rounds was held by the AFL on December 2.

Often, AFL teams cooperated in signing draftees, allowing other teams in the league to sign their choices, to keep the players in the AFL; for example, Bill Mathis, whose "rights" belonged to the Broncos, but who signed with the Titans; Ron Mix, drafted by the Patriots, signed by the Chargers, etc.
