• The AFL held its player re-allocation draft, providing a chance for the Raiders and Broncos to improve their rosters

• Teams making selections paid a nominal fee for each choice based on the round: $4,000 (1st round), $3,000 (2nd), $2,000 (3rd), $1,000 (4th), and no cost for fifth or sixth round choices

• Each team was allowed to protect 35 players

• The Raiders chose defensive tackle Orville Trask from the Oilers with their first-round pick

• They chose two of their own unprotected players in the second and third rounds, then picked another Oilers defensive tackle George Shirkey in the fourth round

• They made no selections in the final two rounds
