The 2022 USFL Draft returned this past week, with a 10-round Supplemental Draft featuring all eight teams.
Unlike the first two rounds of the USFL Draft held last month, Thursday’s Supplemental Draft did not feature position-by-position rounds. Instead, teams were able to select any player from the available player pool. There also was no “passing” for a compensatory pick in a later round in the supplemental draft.
That's a wrap on the night.
