CFL National Draft

The 2022 CFL Draft is scheduled to take place in the spring of 2022.[3] Barring any trades, the Elks will have the first overall selection in the draft for the first time since the 2006 CFL Draft after finishing last in the league standings in 2021 (due to a tie-breaker with the Ottawa Redblacks).[4] The team will have eight selections in the eight-round draft if territorial selections are featured again.[5] The team traded a second-round pick to the Toronto Argonauts in exchange for Nick Arbuckle.[6]
