In advance of the CFL's Scouting Prospect's List (first of which for 2017 should be out soon)
1) Jordan Herdman - Linebacker - (Simon Fraser, 6-2, 235) - already a 2 time Conference D player of the year and record setting tackler
2) Elie Ankou - DT - (UCLA, 6-3, 305) - repeat starter on a Div I program
3) Rishaun Simonise - receiver - (Calgary, 6-5, 210) - big target, speedy receiver with big CIS production - * (not playing for the Dinos this season - academically inelligible ? - but was already signed as a FA by the NFL's Bengals this summer but released in TC)
4) Eddie Meredith - OT - (Western, 6-6, 310) - 2 time CIS all-star OT; previously recruited by Boston College - * (not playing for Western this season - and haven't been able to find out why?) - if he has given up on football = have to scratch him from this list
5) Mason Woods - OG - (Idaho, 6-9, 336) - massive starting guard in Div I ball
6) Junior Luke - DT - (Montreal, 6-1, 300) - play-maker on D for a strong Carabins D that has went to 2 straight Vaniers
7) Sam Narkaj - DT - (Concordia, 6, 295) - CIS all-star, 36 bench reps in Combine testing
8) Nate Behar - receiver - (Carleton, 6, 192) - smooth, polished receiver with some good testing #s
9) Braden Schram - OT - (Calgary, 6-4, 304) - CIS all-star OT, played for a very productive Dinos offence
10) Marc Glaude - O-line - (Montreal, 6-2, 288) - repeat Q all-star on a top CIS program
11) Dan Vandervoort - receiver - (McMaster , 6-1, 190) - very productive CIS receiver for several seasons
12) Robert Woodson - DB - (Calgary, 5-11, 181) - CIS all-star with some very good athletic testing #s (4.52 forty & 36" vertical)
13) Evan Foster - DE - (Manitoba, 6-2, 220) - pro undersized a bit at DE but very athletic, strong (30 bench reps), play-making defender
14) Alex Morrison - receiver - (UBC, 6-3, 211) - big target with some good athletic testing #s
15) Jesse McNair - safety - (Western, 5-11, 186) - CIS all-star
*** edit - after seeing the CFL's Scouting Combine list - I would add 4 NCAA ball Canucks, plus one guy from CIS ball :
Justin Senior - OT - (Miss. St., 6-5, 310) - starter for 3 seasons now
Akeel Lynch - RB (Nevada, 5-11, 220) - formerly at Penn State where he put up some big rushing #s
Chris Mulumba Tshimanga - LB (Maine, 6-1, 245) - huge backer who was their D player of the year a couple of seasons back
Faith Ekakitie - DT - (Iowa, 6-3, 290)
Kwaku Boateng - DE - (Laurier, 6-1, 243) - 2nd team CIS all-star last season
Senior, Lynch and Mulumba should all be top 5 or 10, IMO
Not sure who/where the Argos will be targeting next draft?; and oops, already gave up their 1st rounder in the trade for a Willy - might be able to get a good player / one of these guys in the 2nd round ?
