The 2025 CFL National Draft is a selection of National players by Canadian Football League teams that is scheduled to take place in the spring of 2025. Seventy-two players are scheduled to be chosen from among eligible players from Canadian Universities across the country, as well as Canadian players playing in the NCAA.[1][2] That number is subject to change if there are any forfeited selections.

Format

As per the 2022 collective bargaining agreement, the two teams that had National players featured in the highest percentage of snaps played in the 2024 CFL season will each be awarded an additional second-round pick.[2]
