    Als and BC have a trade of first round draft choices depending on who is available according to Farhan Lalji.

    After all the talk about the Argos and Montreal trying to trade up, it's Calgary who does it, taking DT Randy Colling who has pro experience playing in the Arena Football League, but is a National because of his American parent, giving the Stampeders a mature player who is likely able to start immediately.

    Bombers having already gotten the top OL not attending a NFL camp, draft long term by taking #2 draft prospect Geoff Gray who is going to the Green Bay picks.

    Here's Marshall Ferguson's review of OL Evan Johnson, Ottawa's ninth overall pick.

    Evan Johnson might be my favourite player from the 2017 CFL combine. Quietly, he racked up exceptional test after exceptional test. As a smaller lineman he got worked a bit during the padded session at the CFL combine but you can see the athleticism, movement skills and overall potential.

    Marshall Ferguson on OLDariusz Bladek 11th overall.

    The 2017 CFL draft might not have those one or two names that jump above the rest as sure fire perennial all-stars or A+ prospects but the strength of the draft is in the high number of B+ and A- prospects, especially across the offensive line.
    In Bladek, the Lions could add a prime example of this depth while solidifying the left guard position should Hunter Steward take a look south in the coming years. At the combine, Bladek brought an intensity, focus and personality typically seen in a prototypical top five selection.
    Bladek can be a depth swing man immediately with the very real possibility of becoming a rock on a line building around Jonathon Jennings for the foreseeable future.

    14th overall pick by Edmonton is

    JEAN-SIMON ROY
    OL | LAVAL
    Laval offensive linemen don’t really require an explanation at this point. Depending on where teams deem Ekakitie, Senior and Gray to be, Roy could go in the mid-teens with his sound hands and system understanding. Both trademarks of a Rouge Et Or blocker.
