The Calgary Stampeders have made their selections in the 2023 CFL Draft, with several promising players joining the team. The Stamps focused on a variety of positions, with a notable emphasis on offensive and defensive linemen.

In the first round, the Stampeders selected wide receiver Cole Tucker from Northern Illinois University. Tucker, standing 6’2″ and weighing 195 pounds, is expected to bring a strong presence to the Stampeders’ receiving corps.

Throughout the draft, the Stamps added depth to their roster, with key picks such as defensive lineman Kwadwo Boahen from the University of Alberta in the third round and wide receiver Clark Barnes from the University of Guelph in the same round.

Calgary continued to make strategic moves in later rounds, securing offensive lineman Alexandre Marcoux from McGill University in the fourth round and defensive lineman Ryan Leder from McMaster University in the fifth round.
