  • 1936: the FIRST DRAFT by Bob Barnett
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 5, No. 6 (1983) 1936: THE FIRST DRAFT By Bob Barnett When the NFL convened for its annual player draft this year, it was a media event of the first order. The team tables and the NFL head table in the grand ballroom of the Sheraton Hotel in New York were bathed in the glare of television lights as the drama of who-got-whom was played out live before an ESPN audience and dozens of newspaper and magazine reporters. Many of the players who expected to be drafted in an early round attended the draft in person, but almost every other eligible football-playing college senior watched the television event with intense interest. As well they should have, for an early round selection can be negotiated into a seven-figure, multi-year contract, while a twelfth round pick can result in receiving only the NFL minimum, $40,000. This year's draft is obviously quite different from the very first NFL draft held in 1936. In contrast to today's practice of scouting virtually every college football player in the U.S., owners often compiled their draft lists from well-worn copies of Football Illustrated magazines. Then they got ready to talk contract in the low four figures. Worse yet, neither the fans nor the the players knew the draft was taking place and frankly did not care. The idea of a draft was hatched in the fertile brain of Bert Bell, the beleaguered owner of the Philadelphia Eagles, in 1935. Bell, who successfully served as NFL commissioner from 1946 to 1959, founded the Eagles in 1933.
