iso_55 Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Walters better not draft another Mulamba. Also nice to see the first 7 picks not OL for a change. With most teams going to 2 & 3 Intl OL their value may have dropped & players at other positions may have risen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've heard, it's a pretty weak draft year. Pretty telling that there's a TE in the top 10 prospects. Good to see a Manitoba boy in the top 20 though, especially an OL - there is definitely a shortage of them this year though. With more & more teams going away from 4 starting Canadian OL that may explain why there's a shortage in the Top 20. Rankings will change though as we know.

Taynted_Fayth Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 I was looking up CFL draft for dummies on the CFL site and its rather lacking. It gives insight in the first round and how the pecking order is comprised,but can someone tell me how 2nd round...3rd round..etc runs? is it like 1st pick in round 1 moves to 9th in round 2? 2nd in round 1 moves to first in round 2?

No the draft keeps the same order throughout. First pick in the first round gets the first pick in the second round, and so forth.

Rich Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_CFL_Draft Here are the trades so far for the draft. As Atomic said, order will be based on final standings, but they don't snake. Same order each round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 thanks, just trying to figure out what # the bombers get for picks if the season was ended today, looks like 3, 7, 14, 21 for the first 3 rounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, indirectly, this 5th round draft pick somehow allows us to pick up another so called backup QB, a highly regarded DB in TJ Heath and a 1st round pick in '17, a 3rd pick in2018, with a side cost of a 4th round pick in 2017. Oh, and Jade Etienne. That's quite the remarkable inventory upgrade. blitzmore and Tracker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's probably being knocked for being academically ineligible. Scouts don't like that. At least he's continuing to play football in the CJFL for the Sun. https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/blogs/cfl-55-yard-line/ex-cis--ex-nfl--current-cjfl-wr-rashaun-simonise-stands-out-on-prospect-list-211426077.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternal optimist Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 7 hours ago, Point of attack said: The irony of a weak draft is ,theoretically at least , there will be less interest from NFL teams making more borderline picks likely to attend CFL camps. I would add that maybe we've been a little spoiled by the quality in recent drafts and this group will look a whole lot better after the months leading up to the draft. So long as the draft is just slightly weaker, and not green-and-white bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess iso's point is that Glenn was worth a fourth round pick, and Willy worth a first, a third and a starting international... and the Esks basically gave Nichols away, who is arguably a better QB than both those other guys. They did win the Grey Cup but that doesn't do anything for them this year or into the future... a better return on Nichols may have helped and put them in a position where they aren't fighting for the last playoff spot.

The Sun got hammered 58-2 by the Hilltops on Saturday. The Rifles trounced the Huskers 35-0 as well in the first pair of regular season cross-over games. Once again, in the CJFL, the prairie teams prove that they are at a higher level than the BC teams. Prior to the game, the CJFL had the Sun ranked higher than the Hilltops in their power rankings. http://www.cjfl.org/news_article/show/698224?referrer_id=1265597 I would suggest that the next power rankings put all PFC teams ahead of all of the BC teams.
