CFL Releases 2024 Scouting Bureau Winter Draft Rankings

The CFL released its updated 2024 Scouting Bureau rankings for the upcoming CFL Draft.

With roughly four months to go until the 2024 CFL Draft, the league has announced its updated 2024 Scouting Bureau rankings. This is the first one the CFL has released since the fall edition in August.

Coming at the top of the list is Illinois offensive lineman Isaiah Adams, who was previously the fifth-best Canadian prospect entering the draft. Theo Benedet and Kyle Hergel are the other offensive linemen who are in the top five. Tight ends Theo Johnson and Tanner McLachlan come in as third and fourth on the list.

Overall, offensive linemen lead with the most players in the top 20 with nine. Wide receivers are second with four and defensive linemen are right behind with three. Tight ends and linebackers close it out with two players each.

Here is the list of the top 20 Canadian players entering the CFL Draft:
