I take your point, but I would not say a first round pick in the CFL is as critical as in other sports. First, there are only 9 teams; without a first round pick, you could still be picking 10th. Second, the draft is used mainly to grab O/L - 9 of the top 14 in the 2018 draft were O/L. You can still get them in the second round or free agency.
