Offseason

CFL Global Draft

The 2025 CFL global draft took place on April 29, 2025.[2] The Stampeders had two selections in the draft, holding the first pick in each round.[3]

CFL National Draft

The 2025 CFL draft took place on April 29, 2025.[2] The Stampeders had ten selections in the eight-round draft, including the first overall selection, which was the first top selection for the franchise since 2014 CFL draft. The team also received two additional selections, at the end of the first and second rounds, after the BC Lions forfeited their picks due to exceeding the 2024 salary cap.[4] Not including traded picks, the team selected first in each round of the draft after finishing last in the 2024 league standings.[5]
