The 1946 National Football League Draft was held on January 14, 1946, at the Commodore Hotel in New York City, New York. The selections were initially withheld from the public out of fear that the newly formed All-America Football Conference would sign away players selected high. With the first overall pick of the draft, the Boston Yanks selected quarterback Frank Dancewicz. The most notable draft choice in this player selection meeting was made by the Washington Redskins and remains one of the biggest draft blunders of all time. They chose Cal Rossi with the 9th overall pick, but Rossi, a junior at UCLA, was not eligible to be drafted. They chose him again in the 1947 NFL draft, but he never played football professionally.

  • Il Draft NFL 1946 si è tenuto il 14 gennaio 1946 all'Hotel Commodore di New York. La scelta più nota di questo draft fu quella dei Washington Redskins che rimane uno degli errori più grossolani della storia del draft. I Redskins scelsero Cal Rossi con la nona scelta assoluta. Tuttavia, Rossi era uno junior (giocatore al terzo anno di college) e non era eleggibile per essere scelto nel draft. Washington lo scelse nuovamente nel Draft NFL 1947 ma non giocò mai nel football professionistico. (it)
