Damien Alford WR 1st overall draft pick to Calgary.
Like the Shay pick.
Quite a few OL being picked by other teams shortly before our picks in round 1-2.
Edmontons 10th overall pick is banned for a year and it seems every team knew this before the draft! Odd indeed.

So, he hadn't been banned yet as he was appealing, and then dropped the appeal after the draft.
EDM probably could have waited a few rounds to draft him...

Ooops, from that list it looks like he ingested the whole pharmacy! Hard to argue "accident" with that wide assortment.
Cool that the combine has random PED testing!!
