The game represents a rare sneak preview of the next Akheem Mesidor, Nathan Rourke, Chase Brown, or Brady Oliveira before they become household names.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">The 2025 CFL Draft was a milestone event, with defensive linemen Ty Anderson (Hamilton Tiger-Cats) and Max von Muehldorfer (Calgary Stampeders), receiver Kolby Hurford (Edmonton Elks), and offensive linemen Ethan Pyle (Toronto Argonauts) making history as the first CFC Prospect Game alumni to be selected.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">Heading into the 2026 CFL Draft, five alumni were featured in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tsn.ca\/cfl\/article\/mesidor-no1-in-spring-edition-of-cfl-scouting-bure\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.tsn.ca\/cfl\/article\/mesidor-no1-in-spring-edition-of-cfl-scouting-bure\/\">CFL Scouting Bureau\u2019s top 20 final rankings<\/a>, including offensive linemen Albert Reese IV (Mississippi State) and Giordano Vaccaro (Purdue), defensive back Malcolm Bell (Michigan State), defensive linemen Aamarii Notice (Coastal Carolina), and wide receiver Nolan Ulm (Eastern Washington).<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">\u201cWhile excited for this year\u2019s game, we are equally excited for the alumni who will be called during the CFL Canadian Draft show. Our alumni\u2019s continued engagement has been awesome, with many coaching at our nation-wide selection camps,\u201d said Barette.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-paragraph\">**Roster alphabetical by last
