The 2002Canadian Football LeagueExpansion Draft was a three-round
CFL draft that took place on January 17, 2002, which assigned players from existing CFL teams to the
expansionOttawa Renegades.[1] Ottawa could select one import player from each team and two non-import players. Alternatively, the Renegades could select a team's second-round draft pick in the
2002 or
2003 CFL Drafts in place of one of the non-import players. Additionally, member teams were permitted to protect two quarterbacks in the draft, limiting Ottawa's selections. Ottawa selected six quarterbacks from teams' negotiation lists and, as such, their names were not released.[2]
