The 1961 National Football League draft took place at the Warwick Hotel in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on December 27–28, 1960.[1][2] The league would later hold an expansion draft for the Minnesota Vikings expansion franchise, and the Vikings were also awarded the first selection position in this draft.

The Cowboys held the worst record in the NFL the previous season, but selected second in this draft because of the entry of the Vikings into the league.
