The CFL on TSN will release its annual Top 50 Players on Tuesday. TSN.ca previews what the list could look like, today with national players. A look at the nationals that could make the list, in alphabetical order:

Andrew Harris, RB, Blue Bombers (Last Year: 12)

Harris is arguably the best running back in the league and makes an impact for his hometown Blue Bombers both as a runner and receiver out of the backfield. The 31-year-old finished last season with 1,035 rushing yards, 857 receiving yards and seven combined touchdowns.

After racking up a career-high 1,892 offensive yards last season, Harris has his sights set on 2,000 yards this year – 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 yards receiving.

Brendon LaBatte, OG, Roughriders (Last Year: NR)

LaBatte battled a neck injury two seasons ago that cost him all but three games of the 2016 season and his spot on the Top 50 Players list last year.

But the steady veteran was back to full health last season, playing all 18 regular-season games on route to being named a CFL All-Star, and as a result could return to the Top 50.

Cleyon Laing, DE, Argonauts (Last Year: NR)

Laing played in only 11 games for the Argos last season, but showed his impact with five sacks from his defensive tackle position.

After a couple years with one eye south of the border looking for NFL opportunities, Laing cemented his CFL status by signing a two-year extension with the Argos in January. The 27-year-old could be a sack threat for the foreseeable future in Toronto.

Ted Laurent, DT, Tiger-Cats (Last Year: 26)

Laurent has been a mainstay on the Top 50 Players list during his time with the Tiger-Cats but is coming off a down season because of six games missed to a lower-body injury.

The Ticats showed how much they value the 30-year-old this off-season however, signing him to a contract extension minutes before he was set to become a free agent.

Taylor Loffler, S, Blue Bombers (Last Year: 40)

After leading the Blue Bombers with 75 tackles and adding an interception and three forced fumbles, Loffler was one of only two national players to be named a CFL All-Star on the defensive side of the ball last season, giving the 26-year-old his second All-Star nod in as many seasons in the league.

That should be enough to earn a spot on the Top 50 for the second straight season.

Sean McEwen, C, Argonauts (Last Year: NR)

One year after being named the Argos’ Most Outstanding Rookie nominee, McEwen continued his upward trajectory in 2017, being named a CFL All-Star in just his second season.

One of the most impressive young lineman in the league, the 24-year-old added team nominees for Most Outstanding Canadian and Offensive Lineman to his resume last year.

Henoc Muamba, LB, Alouettes (Last Year: NR)

After putting together a full season in the CFL last year following two NFL-interrupted campaigns, Muamba could be joining the Top 50 Players.

The 29-year-old was solid for the Roughriders last season, finishing with 82 tackles and two interceptions, but will be suiting up for the Alouettes this season after being a cap-related release by Saskatchewan in February.

Alex Singleton, LB, Stampeders (Last Year: 47)

After just sneaking on the Top 50 Players list last year, Singleton figures to be much higher this time around after his breakout 2017. The 24-year-old finished second in the league in tackles with 123 and also had four sacks and an interception.

Singleton, who was named a CFL All-Star and Most Outstanding Defensive Player last year, could battle Harris as the top Canadian on the Top 50 this year.

Brad Sinopoli, WR, Redblacks (Last Year: NR)

A previous entry on the Top 50 Players, Sinopoli could make his return this year after being named an East Division All-Star. Sinopoli was second on the Redblacks in receptions (91), and yards (1,009) while finishing with three touchdowns.

After limited targets to start his career with the Stampeders, Sinopoli has eclipsed 1,000 yards in all three of his seasons in Ottawa and has become one of the premier Canadian pass catchers in the league.

Chris Van Zeyl, OT, Argonauts (Last Year: NR)

Van Zeyl differs from the other national offensive linemen in contention for the Top 50 because he plays on the outside of the line, manning right tackle for the Argonauts.

The ratio-buster has been named an East Division All-Star four times and added league All-Star honours to his resume last season, which could be enough to cement his spot on the list.

Jamaal Westerman, DE, Montreal Alouettes (Last Year: NR)

Westerman’s season last year resembled his monster 2015 campaign before an upper-body injury cut it short. The ratio-breaking pass rusher had 21 tackles and seven sacks in just 11 contests.

Missing seven games will hurt his chances for inclusion in this year’s Top 50 Players, but Westerman is among the best on the defensive line when healthy.
