Players drafted in the AFL National Draft at number 40 or lower, and does not include father/son picks. In brackets are the team that drafted the player, the draft pick number and the year of that draft.

It is getting close to draft day, and while the first round or two has the players everyone will be talking about next year it doesn't mean there won't be future superstars taken much later in the draft. It would hard for someone to find a team that could take this one on, a team entirely made of the later picks in the AFL National Drafts.
