EXPANSION DRAFT MONDAY
The REDBLACKS must submit their selections to the league office by the following times:
10:00am Sask time: First Round – Ottawa to Select Eight Import Players
11:30am Sask time: Second Round – Ottawa to Select Eight Non-Import Players
2:30pm Sask time: Third Round – Ottawa to Select Eight Non-Import Players
Following each submission of selections to the league office, the REDBLACKS will announce their selections in a media conference held in Ottawa. This media conference will be streamed live on CFL.ca and also made available to media not in attendance via conference call.
Please note that once the Ottawa REDBLACKS officially select a player, that player's rights belong to Ottawa. It will be Ottawa's responsibility to inform the players they select that they have been selected.
If Ottawa wants to start the franchise right and value Canadian talent, they will not select a QB in the draft and take the higher tier non-import talent available to them.
They can go after Burris, Collaros or Willy in the Free Agent market. Collaros and Willy would definitely wait until Feb., to see what interest there is, if Ottawa doesn’t select a QB in the draft.
This is as stupid as the NHL trying to establish hockey in Atlanta. The people of Ottawa have already abandoned two franchises. Why are we giving them more players? I'm all for expansion but not to a place that has proven they won't support a team.
Hopefully Ottawa will do us a favour and select Sisco
Why would the REDBLACKS want the Roughriders problem?

According to Arash Madani, the Ottawa REDBLACKS have been bad boys and won’t get anything but a lump of coal
If you've got nothing good to say about expansion and the Ottawa Redblacks, than Shut your mouth! That or go watch the NoFunLeague! Ottawa failed twice because of ownership problems and had NOTHING to do with its fans or not caring! Trying to compare this to the NHL And a sad excuse for a franchise like the Atlanta Thrashers is pitiful and PATHETHIC!! Go Ottawa Redblacks! Go CFL!! …down with stupid idiots, the NFL and CFL haters!!
