Third party rights transfers (e.g., Tampa Bay to San Francisco to Seattle, Round 4) are not specified. Trades made on May 1 marked (*). Current breakdown by position: OL: 7 QB: 1 RB: 1 TE: 4 WR: 8 Offense: 21 DL: 14 LB: 12 DB: 9 Defense: 35 Apparently more good defensive players this year. Most common opinion: USFL tended to sign more offense than defense among probable high picks.
