• • "The Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears have drafted the most Red Raiders, eleven and nine respectively." I'd change the last part to '..., drafting eleven and nine, respectively.'

• • For the Guards, we can just keep G rather than OG for those that have the latter.

• Oops. It's been corrected. NThomas (talk) 21:04, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• • For Backs, B stopped being used a while back, so the last three to have them are probably wrong (they should be DB or CB from the looks of it).

• Had to fix quite a few, but I went through again with all of the general references and all positions are now correct. NThomas (talk) 21:04, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Image caption is a complete sentence so needs a period.

• Corrected. NThomas (talk) 22:07, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• "Three former Red Raiders have been selected to..." followed by "Only three former Red Raiders have been selected to..." reads repetitively for me. NThomas (talk) 22:07, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• I combined the two sentences. I think now, all three blurbs flow together instead of two together, then the other sentence "added on". NThomas (talk) 22:07, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• I think, as a non-expert, you need to be clearer about the merger, rather just a subtle merger link.

• Can you elaborate please? Almost a third of the lead is dedicated about the merger. NThomas (talk) 22:07, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Yeah, re-reading it makes it clearer. Not to worry. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:45, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Especially as you say they happened in 1966 before saying "Once the AFL officially merged with the NFL in 1970..."

• The leagues agreed to merge on June 8, 1966, but until 1970, they still operated as separate leagues although they both participated in a single "Common Draft". I'll quote the entire line so you can elaborate how to make it clearer. As part of the merger agreement on June 8, 1966, the two leagues would hold a multiple round "Common Draft". Once the AFL officially merged with the NFL in 1970, the "Common Draft" simply became the NFL Draft. NThomas (talk) 22:07, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Would prefer to see columns in each table same width as each other.

• The "Player name", "AFL/NFL team", and "Notes" are all fluid because of the different size entries. If you want them to be fixed instead of fluid, how do I change that and what size for each column do you think is appropriate? NThomas (talk) 22:07, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Don't worry, this seems to be a "me" thing, and it's not worth worrying about if I'm the only one to point it out, so forget it. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:45, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• "See also: American Football League Draft" vs "See also: NFL Draft" - be consistent.

• The article was "NFL Draft", not "National Football League Draft until it was recently moved after this FLC was nominated. The seealso template is now corrected to reflect the moved page. NThomas (talk) 22:07, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Back (sports) is a dab page.

• Before the distinction was made in later years, that was the name of the position. Today it's evolved into multiple positions. The forth bullet on Back (sports) is what this use is referring to In American and Canadian football, this means a player who is lined up behind the linemen, the players who line up closest to the line of scrimmage. Should I just remove the link then?

• To prevent it being ambiguous, I would unlink and maybe add a footnote. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:45, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Added footnote. NThomas (talk) 18:07, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
