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.
