Teams shouldn’t be allowed to sign any of them. How many players the past 4 years have been caught cheating? At least 10 & maybe more. These guys have to be taught a hard lesson as obviously players don’t seem to care. The league just enables them with really a slap on the wrist.

Problem is if they are kicked out of draft permanently they simply become FA’s and anyone can sign them.

Hope not indeed, the CFL doesn’t test for marijuana and that’s probably a good thing, i’m not advocating one way or the other but it’s hardly a performance enhancing substance like HGH and other PED’s and everybody knows that. These are grown men, professional athletes. Next.

If this is their draft year then should have to forego ever being drafted to send a strong message not to do PEDs

Are they going to ban sex and alcohol too? Of course if it’s performance enhancement drugs I’m all for the crackdown.

Not highly ranked but draft boards probably keep changing heading into the weekend. It’s going to be really important to pick wisely, especially for teams with immediate needs. Lions still have some good National prospects but only 2 really good receivers available & all of teams picking 1 through 7 could use a receiver. Does that mean BC or Winnipeg with 2 picks select a receiver 1st? They may not get a 2nd chance as Hamilton is expected to take Vandevoort if available & I can see the Esks go for Behar, the only 2 in top 20. It will be interesting to see.
