Offseason

CFL draft

The 2011 CFL Draft took place on Sunday, May 8, 2011.^[1] The Stampeders had six selections in the draft, with the first coming in the third spot overall, after trading their sixth overall pick to the BC Lions. Through the trade, Calgary was able to select local star receiver Anthony Parker with their first pick, who was ranked as the number one receiver available in the draft. The Stampeders also selected Ottawa Quarterback Brad Sinopoli, who had been discussed as the best non-import QB to be available in a long time.^[2]
