| Post subject: | Looking back at the recent CFL drafts |
Some other football league might have their draft in the next few days, but who cares about that? The new CFL website now includes the past 3 CFL drafts (2033-2035) with player ratings (initial compared to current). It's interesting to see the booms/busts after a couple of years. For example: 2033 - year of the center 2-1 C Jeff Hansen (now 95/95, quite better than 2-2 pick LB Sammie Gilmore who is 12/12) 6-22 C Raymond Spurgeon (now rated 62/64 in his first season as a starter) 2034 had some highly rated skill position players in later rounds: 2-16 TE R.J. Alston (59/73) 2-29 WR Leon Bailey (50/59) 2-32 TE Phillip Hines (59/59) 3-3 WR Lionel McGregor (48/48) 3-20 FS Austin Robertson (53/53) 4-26 WR Cornell Ramo (43/43) 5-16 CB Deion Heath (52/52) 6-11 TE Ed Allen (45/53) And then there are the busts: 2033: 1-17 LB Peter Walker (25/35) 1-24 CB Quentin Bell (34/34) 2-22 DE Arnold Lane (1/2) 2-28 NT Hugh Kempe (retired) 2034: 1-18 SS Vincent McGee (25/38) 2035: 1-10 LB Trevor McSheffrey (7/28) For me, my favorite pick has to be RB David Browning who I got at 4-28 in 2034. He may only be rated 39/39, but he was rookie of the year last season and is averaging 4.9 yards per carry so far this year. |

I'd say Peter Walker wasn't so much a bust as he was injured severely and had a huge rating drop. What? no love for Jeremy Meyers (52/52) or Ed Vest (61/62)??? Both late 2nd round picks. |

Thanks for bringing up Sammie Gilmore... I had just started sleeping better after that bust!!! Regardless, great info to have on the website. Thanks, Rick |
