I don't know why the hell the draft doesn't start at 7 eastern.  The people who want to watch it will find it.  It's not the kind of thing people are randomly going to stop on.

NFL taking all the Globals too.
Should make a deal with them where they can loan guys over so they get to play and not sit on PR down there.

Very interested to see Bombers pick.
I think aside from Dumoulin-Duguay there's not a lot to pick between the OL who will be available through about Round 3.  Nkanu is probably most pro ready but no upside at all.  But there's a lot of guys who could be significant players on D and at receiver available.  
Say with that 3Down mock exercise....if Brubacher is on the board for us in the first round I don't see them passing him over for a guy who probably isn't good enough to dress this year at OL.  Could grab a similar level of OL prospect at end of Round 2.

Last years draft was not a good one.
In terms of receiver/running back we want to start 3 Canadians there and we have 3 starting level players.  We need depth there today as well as thinking into next year and beyond.
Exact same issue with OL.

Well if you sign him he's here for 2 years same as anyone else.

It’s a great OL class.  So great it might produce 4 NFLers.
I actually think the guy most likely to end up without NFL work is Benedet but he’s been pretty staunch about pursuing the NFL so I don’t think he’ll be back soon.  They also have 15 guy PR’s now so hard to get guys back.
I think Hergel will stick.  Will develop as a center who can play all over if needed.

A lot of those DL have no explosion which is going to severely limit their ability to compete in the CFL.
Sambu and Obiang showed very poorly at the combine...and the competition level was not strong with OL there.
One guy I can see getting a bit of a bump in Onyeka from Carleton.  I think most teams will see him as an interior guy.  He played end in U Sports but is kind of that Wiggan type body.  He'll add 20-25 lbs.
Omanuwa from Laurier had a good combine.  See him being one of the first interior guys off the board.  Hubert from Mac too.  He's another guy who played more edge in U Sports but will be an interior guy in CFL.
Of course Sambu being a NCAA guy will have some bias behind where he lands.  I don't see him being a CFLer at all.  The guys that come into the combine in such poor condition is a huge red flag.

Problem is there's like one guy who is ready to play who will likely be in CFL camp in May, Dumoulin-Duguay.  Una is a maybe.  Nkanu I think will not be much of a pro, decent feet, very weak hands.  Wallace too is another medium floor, very low ceiling type.  Doesn't really have CFL OL skills in terms of movement.
Most teams will want guys who can play pretty quick.  And there's not really a Dayton Black type in this draft who is raw but with huge upside.  Maybe like a Bosse or Mueller.  But lower upside.
