Blue Bombers sign 1st-rounder Sukh Chungh
Well, that didn't take long.
With the second overall draft choice in the 2015 CFL Draft, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers selected University of Calgary offensive linesman Sukh Chungh.
No more than a day later, the Blue Bombers inked the beastly first-rounder.
The 23-year-old is prepared to enter training camp with grounded belief he can crack the opening day lineup. Many think Chungh - standing 6-foot-4 and 305-pounds - is ready to make the jump to the professional level.
"I'm thrilled to be a Blue Bomber," Chungh said to Bomber TV reporter Kim Babij-Gesell following the draft. "I'm excited to have the opportunity to block for (quarterback) Drew Willy."
General manager Kyle Walters had his own proclamation for Chungh:
"There's an edge to him. His University coach said... The one guy I want in a dark alley with me is Sukh Chungh." - GM Kyle Walters
