The Toronto Argonauts and Saskatchewan Roughriders have agreed to a trade that will send the first overall pick in the 2010 Draft from Toronto to Saskatchewan.
The Roughriders will also receive the Argos’ second round pick (#8 overall) in exchange for the #2 and #4 overall picks and non-import punter Jamie Boreham.
Argos’ Head Coach Jim Barker said, “We believe this trade puts us in a great position to get not only one but two of our top-rated draft picks plus a proven non-import punter and kicker in Jamie Boreham. This trade enables us to improve our team immediately and in the future.”
This will be the first time the Roughriders have held the first overall selection in the CFL Canadian Draft since 2001 when they picked defensive lineman Scott Schultz.
