Joseph goes first overall to Saskatchewan in CFL dispersal draftat 16:36 on April 12, 2006, EST.TORONTO (CP) - The Saskatchewan Roughriders made quarterback Kerry Joseph the first player taken in the CFL dispersal draft Wednesday. Saskatchewan obtained the No. 1 pick prior to the draft by dealing import running back-kick returner Corey Holmes, non-import safety Scott Gordon, a negotiation list player and 2007 first-round pick from the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. The six-foot-one, 215-pound Joseph ran for 1,006 yards last year with Ottawa, becoming just the third quarterback in CFL history last season to surpass the 1,000-yard rushing plateau (Damon Allen and Tracy Ham were the others). Joseph threw for 4,466 yards with 25 touchdowns, but also had 23 interceptions. Inconsistency at quarterback was a problem last year for Saskatchewan (9-0), who finished fourth in the West Division with veterans Nealon Greene and Marcus Crandell took turns under centre. But Saskatchewan gave up a lot in the deal. Holmes was the CFL's top special-teams player last year and a finalist for the league's outstanding player award, won by Toronto's Allen. The draft was of players under contract to the Ottawa Renegades, who were suspended for the 2006 season by the CFL on Sunday. The Winnipeg Blue Bombers, who also reportedly coveted Joseph, took offensive lineman Ibrahim Khan second overall. The six-foot-four, 305-poud Khan was Ottawa's first-round pick (second overall) in the 2004 Canadian college draft out of Simon Fraser University. The top lineman in Canadian college football in 2003, Khan, an Ottawa native, appeared in 15 games for the Renegades last season. Saskatchewan, at No. 3, took receiver Jason Armstead with the second overall selection. The five-foot-10, 160-pound receiver was Ottawa's leading receiver last year with 89 catches for 1,307 yards, which left him fifth in both categories in the CFL. The former University of Mississippi star was also third in the league in punt returns (70 for 699 yards, one touchdown) and kickoff returns (51 for 1,082 yards). He also returned five missed field goal tries for 221 yards. Calgary then took linebacker Cam Yeow. Ottawa selected Yeow with the No. 2 pick in last year's Canadian college draft out of the University of Akron.
