Matt Sewell: Hamilton Tiger-Cats

Hamilton Tiger-Cats: The only certainty No. 1-ranked Bo Lokombo wont be taken first overall by the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. The 6-foot-3, 233-pound linebacker intends to return to the University of Oregon for another year and is expected to be NFL bound via next seasons draft, according to The Star. With Lokombo, for all intents and purposes, off the board, at least for the first round, the big question is whether the Ticats will choose homebrew Matt Sewell, a 6-foot-4, 340-pound offensive lineman from McMaster, with their pick? Hamilton could also trade their pick for some immediate help or multiple first- round picks and All signs point to some general managers gambling with their first picks in Mondays CFL draft , now expanded from six to seven rounds. The defending Grey Cup-champion Toronto Argonauts have the eighth pick. The expansion Ottawa team, expected to be named the Red Blacks, pick ninth, although they can only select four Canadian undergraduate players returning to school in the U.S. for their team that will begin play in 2014.
