2023 CFL Global Draft
The 2023 CFL Global Draft was a selection of non-Canadian and non-American players by Canadian Football League (CFL) teams that took place on May 2, 2023. It was the third CFL Draft that pooled all of the global players together after previously having separate drafts for Mexican players and European players in 2019. Draft format
This year's draft featured two rounds with a total of 18 selections. This was reduced from three rounds in 2022 and from four rounds in 2021. This year's global draft was also the first to be based solely on the waiver priority order (reverse standings from the previous year) and the first to have the same order in each round (as opposed to a snake order draft).
