TORONTO — With the 2019 season in the books, work begins on 2020 for the nine CFL teams. In addition to February’s free agent deadline, clubs are preparing for March’s Combine season which will eventually lead up to April’s Draft.

The Ottawa REDBLACKS hold the first overall pick, but that could change depending on what Nick Arbuckle decides to do over the next few weeks. In the pivot’s trade earlier this month, Calgary received a conditional pick in the 2020 draft (first overall) from Ottawa.

If Arbuckle signs an extension with Ottawa before the free agency period opens, the first pick in the draft becomes the Stampeders and Ottawa will receive Calgary’s first round pick (sixth overall).
