I assume you mean the rules to the NFL Draft.

Each team is given one pick per round based on the previous season's order of finish (the non-playoff teams go in order of reverse record, playoff teams go by the round they are eliminated in, then by record, with the two Super Bowl teams going last) . If two or more teams have the same record, the tie is broken by strength of schedule, with the team with the weaker strength of schedule getting the higher pick.

Teams can trade picks with other teams at any time before the current draft or during it, even trading picks in future drafts. Teams have 15 minutes to make first round picks, 10 in the second, and 5 in the third through seventh (if they miss their time slot, teams behind them may pick). Teams are also given compensatory picks for free agents lost.

They may choose from players who have not been drafted who have been out of high school at least three years.

Team with the worst record gets first pick, team that wins the Super Bowl gets last pick. You do not need to graduate college to get drafted or even go to college. Generally they do not like to draft players that hav'nt not attended at least 2 years of college or players too young because their bodies are not yet strong enough for the rigors of the NFL. I think theres 12 rounds and 32 teams.

In the NFL, while you don't have to go to college, you will not be drafted until the age of where you would have completed your sopomore year in college. The best example of this is Maurice Clarett who challenged the NFL and lost. Maurice Clarett played one year for Ohio St then applied for the Draft after his freshman year. He was declined and had to wait til the next season. Denver took a shot on him, but he was out of shape and slow at the combines. Now he's doing time for weapons possesion.
He shoulda stayed in school....

Each team gets a pick, depending on how well the team did in the season, they then get a certain amount of time to pick any player eligible for the draft. The teams can do what they want with their picks like trade them for players or ohter picks

Draughts (drafts or /dɹɑfʦ/) (British English) or checkers (American English) is a group of abstract strategy board games between two players which involve diagonal moves of uniform pieces and mandatory captures by jumping over the enemy's pieces.

The most popular forms are international draughts, played on a 10×10 board, followed by English draughts, also called American checkers that is played on an 8×8 board, but there are many other variants. The game of draughts is older than the game of chess.

Draughts is played by two people, on opposite sides of a playing board, alternating moves. One player has dark pieces, and the other has light pieces. The player with the dark pieces makes the first move unless stated otherwise. Pieces move diagonally and pieces of the opponent are captured by jumping over them. The playable surface consists only of the dark squares. A piece may only move into an unoccupied square. Capturing is mandatory in some rules. A piece that is captured is removed from the board. In all variants, the player who has no pieces left or cannot move anymore has lost the game unless otherwise stated.

Uncrowned pieces ("men") move one step diagonally forwards and capture other pieces by making two steps in the same direction, jumping over the opponent's piece on the intermediate square. Multiple opposing pieces may be captured in a single turn provided this is done by successive jumps made by a single piece. In English draughts men can only capture forwards, but in international draughts they may also capture (diagonally) backwards.

When men reach the crownhead or kings row (the farthest row forward), they become kings, marked by placing an additional piece on top of the first, and acquire additional powers including the ability to move backwards (and capture backwards, in variants in which they cannot already do so).

In international draughts, kings can move as far as they want in diagonals like a bishop in chess. However, they cannot capture like a bishop, but jump over the captured piece, moving over as many empty fields as the player wants but jumping over only a single, opposing piece in each jump. (As with men, a king may make successive jumps in a single turn provided that each is a capture.) This rule, known as flying kings, is not used in English draughts, in which a king's only advantage over a man is the ability to move and capture backwards as well as forwards. Notice that captured pieces are removed from the board only after capturing is finished. Thus sometimes the captured but not yet removed piece obliges a king to stop after capturing at a given field where he in turn will be captured by the adversary.
