This is my fourth nomination in the series of NFL team's first-round picks and I hope it will be the 24th featured list in the series. I've based it on my past successful nominations, with the difference being that this team spent 1960–1967 in an independent league that later merged with the NFL whereas my other nominations spent their entire history with the NFL. The third paragraph is new when compared to my other nominations because I had to explain the difference between the AFL and NFL drafts and make mention of the merger. As such, please do pay attention to this paragraph and provide criticism and tweaks to this, I plan to use the same explanatory paragraph in other AFL team nominations.

Are we certain that team names and organizations should use the website parameter instead of the publisher? I think it fits better to have the NFL and HOF listed as publishers; for the NFL specifically, NFL.com would also be suitable for the work/website parameter.– I guess I'm not sure on this one. I don't really see a good reason in some of these, especially for the HoF, to change it to publisher. I'm open to it, but perhaps I'm not understanding why it makes more sense in this context.
Diario AS's English version isn't a high-quality source, so if possible I would like to see a replacement for Citation 13.– Ultimately this was the best available source I could find that was able to verify the text of "... which serves as the league's most common source of player recruitment." Other sites say it in different ways and, if you follow the NFL at all, it's obvious that the draft is the primary method of recruiting players but other sites don't outright state it as such. I think, contextually speaking, it should be adequate for the information it's verifying, but I can keep working at it if the source isn't suitable in your opinion.
Citation 35...– D'oh, fixed! THE New York Times is now consistent and I added "The" before "Washington Post". I have removed the subscription needed aspect for the two NY Times articles, as they aren't actually prompting me for a subscription when accessing them.
The Bills have held the first overall pick five times, four times in the NFL draft and once in the AFL draft, and selected Ken Rice in 1961, O. J. Simpson in 1969, Walt Patulski in 1972, Tom Cousineau in 1979, and Bruce Smith in 1985.- sort of a run-on sentence. Recommend cutting it into 2 sentence after "AFL draft".
