2010 Draft Lottery and Order: In-between AFC and NFC Championships
Sunday, January 24, 2010
The 2010 draft order will be determined via a lottery
system. The 8 teams that failed to qualify for the playoffs in 2009 will
each have an opportunity to secure one of the top three draft picks in the 2010
draft. Each team will be awarded lottery entries as follows:

Each entry will consist of a ball with an owner’s name
affixed to it. All 92 balls will be placed into the Draft Order software
program (http://www.draftorder.com/)
and a non-involved owner (one who qualified for the playoffs) or other third
party will select three balls electronically – one for the first, second and
third overall picks. The fourth pick will be awarded to the non-lottery-winning
owner with the worst record. The remaining order will be determined by
the traditional method, by reversing the previous year’s final standings.
As has been the case in prior years, the previous year’s champion selects
twelfth and the runner-up selects eleventh.
