2022 CFL draft
The 2022 CFL national draft was a selection of national players by Canadian Football League (CFL) teams that took place on May 3, 2022, at 8:00 pm ET and was broadcast on TSN and RDS. 74 players were chosen from among eligible players from Canadian Universities across the country, as well as Canadian players playing in the NCAA.
The draft was broadcast live on TSN for the first two rounds. The TSN production was hosted by Farhan Lalji and featured the CFL on TSN panel which included Duane Forde, Davis Sanchez, Marshall Ferguson, and Dave Naylor. Randy Ambrosie, the CFL commissioner, was also present in the TSN studios in Toronto to announce the picks for the first two rounds.
Due to U Sports cancelling all play in 2020, 132 eligible 2021 draftees exercised their right to defer their draft years to this year's draft. However, the league also permitted NCAA redshirt juniors to be selected in the 2021 draft to balance out the influx of players to this year's draft.
On May 5, two days after the draft, a supplemental draft was held, with the Edmonton Elks and Calgary Stampeders both forfeiting second round picks in the 2023 CFL draft to select J-Min Pelley and T. J. Rayam, respectively.
In the explanations below, (D) denotes trades that took place during the draft, while (PD) indicates trades completed pre-draft.
