MISSISSAUGA, Ont. — The Toronto Argonauts have signed rookie receiver Mike Bradwell, their first selection in last week’s CFL Canadian college draft.
Toronto selected Bradwell, who played at McMaster University, in the second round (13th overall) of the ’08 draft. The Argos didn’t have a first-round selection.
"I’m happy to sign my first contract and take the initial step toward becoming a pro football player," said Bradwell, a Toronto native. "It’s a dream come true to sign with my hometown Argos.
"I couldn’t have written a better script. Now I can’t wait for start of training camp."
Bradwell was a first-team All-Canadian last season after leading the CIS in receiving yards (958) and registering a school-record 53 receptions. He played three seasons for the Marauders after joining the team in his sophomore year.
