    Argo 20 & 21 draft picks in the pipeline ?

    2020 pick - receiver Sam Baker - big target - playing a final year with the Sask. Huskies - 4 TD grabs this season so far

    2021 - O-Lineman Sage Doxtator - huge OT playing in US college ball still - possible NFL look ?

    2021 - Luiji Vilain - D_lineman drafted out of Michigan but transfer to Wake Forest - where he is leading them in sacks this season

    2021 - DB Ben St-Juste - late round gamble pick as he had NFL interest ;not only made the Redskins roster but playing on D for them = highly doubtful he ever shows up in the CFL ?


    So - the first 3 guys hopefully show up for the Argos for 2022; wonder if former top pick - O-Lineman Ryan Hunter - runs out of NFL opportunity and shows up for the Argos ?

    The Arbuckle trade netted another pick for 2022 - possibly 2nd rounder / 11th overall - to go with the rest of the 2022 picks (not sure if they have added any or traded away some for 2022 ?) But seems like a bunch of interesting prospects up for the next draft.

    Always looking forward to the Argos adding new Canadian talent each year; pleasant surprise that recent young picks like Nicastro, Acheampong, Hoyte, Hagerty, Brissett. Pellerin and Cassar made the roster this year - most of them getting to play on O or D, some or lots (put me down as very surprised by that).

    Gittens really emerging at receiver; Robbie Smith a solid DE; Campbell continuing to start at OT; Richards at OG; Llevi Noel still here - lots of good former draft picks panning out.

    Added a couple of proven/star National vets in Muamba & Judge (and hopefully Colquhon can recover from that injury)

    And after a number of young quality Canadians - like Woodson, Shorthil, Speller - decided to retire prior to this iffy CFL season ( Covid shortened season with less $s or health fears ? - or Canadian players thinking they might be out of luck/opportunity in a future XCFL with little or no ratio ?)

    Argos are up there at league best in Canadian talent IMO = nice to see

    I love the Canadian talent you guys have drafted, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Hoyte looked good in some of the games he started, hopefully he and Cassar will continue to get snaps on defense. Wilfred Laurier is starting to become Dline University and the Argo's manage to get to good ones in Smith and Acheampong. Boateng can backup anywhere in the secondary.
