Secret draft

Perspective

The AAFC held an initial secret draft on July 8, 1948. It consisted of two rounds and was held before the start of the college football season, in order to give the league and advantage on signing players over the National Football League. Two of the selections (Ernie Stautner and Levi Jackson) were voided by league Commissioner Oliver Kessing, because the players were juniors and had college eligibility remaining for the 1949 season.[1]
