The Saskatchewan Roughriders have signed national offensive lineman Dakoda Shepley to a two-year contract, plus an option year in 2021.           

 Shepley (6’4 – 310) was selected by the Roughriders in the first round (5th overall) of the 2018 CFL Draft.

After four seasons at the University of British Columbia, the 24-year-old Shepley signed with the New York Jets as an undrafted free agent in April, 2018. Shepley attended training camp with Jets, playing three preseason games.

 Shepley, a native of Windsor, Ontario, played 32 career collegiate games with the Thunderbirds where he was named a 2017 Canada West All-Star and was part of the team that won the 2015 Vanier Cup.

Can we now assume that is the end for one Josiah St. John? Can we now officially place him ahead of Shomari Wiliams as biggest #1 draft bust?

Both Shamari Williams and Josiah St. John drafted by the Roughriders on a highly reccomended very insistent word of jeremy oday when he was assistant gm.

To last anon - Jeremy O’Day was the Riders starting centre in 2010 (as per Saskatchewan Roughriders archives) so I highly doubt he was responsible for the team drafting Shamari Williams.
