Scotty Stirling of the Tribune reported that within the past week, the AFL conducted a three-round redshirt draft as a supplement to the first 25 rounds that took place on December 2. In this draft the Raiders selected fullback Keith Luhnow from Santa Ana Junior College, tackle Fred Miller of LSU, and guard Marv Marinovich from USC. Luhnow had already signed with the 49ers.
The team announced they were relocating their offices to the Hotel Leamington in mid-March.
