How does drafting work with TeP packs?

You open the pack, take a card and pass the rest, just like with any other pack.

Correct, TeP packs are not treated the same way as the 10 FOOF/RoA cards you get in a tin. TeP packs are treated just like another booster pack when you're drafting.

Are TeP packs added to tins now, or is it just a TeP pack + the packs included in tins.

Keep in mind that the cards in these boxes are still randomized, whereas the sets in the tins were a specific themed collection, e.g. blue Genesis and gray Roman, and designed to be kept together.

They are added with the tin and the missing pack from the tin.

I actually drafted three TexP cards during Booster Draft at Nationals. :D And this is after passing twice on TexP and instead opting for a couple of ultra-rares that happened to come up.
