Those of you that keep up with the CFL, any good players that can help this team? WR, TE, QB?

This is true, and also why I subscribe to the theory that one doesn’t have to go to a top school, or play in a power 5 conference in order to get noticed by NFL scouts. Sure it helps in the process, but if you are balling out, they will find you.The CFL isnt like it used to be where there were hidden Gems or players that for the NFL for some reason shut from the league ala Moon or Flutie.
NFL is better than ever at finding talent that otherwise would of been passed on.
Im sure there might be a rotational player or special teamer out there. But very seldom do those athletes help a team win.
All true. The CFL used to be something of a haven for black quarterbacks when they were still being typecast out of immediate work in the NFL. Warren Moon being the most obvious example of that, of course. It also used to be a haven for guys wanting to make more money than what the NFL used to pay, in the days before unrestricted free agency and exploding salaries in general. Some older fans might remember DE Bruce Clark, one of the early members of the Dome Patrol from the early-mid '80s? He started out in the CFL, too.The CFL isnt like it used to be where there were hidden Gems or players that for the NFL for some reason shut from the league ala Moon or Flutie.

wow, blast from the past....lolAdam Bighill. No, wait. Nevermind.
It may not be a constant feeder, but right now, as an example, Alex Singleton, former linebacker from Calgary, is doing quiet well and starting with the Philadelphia Eagles.The CFL isnt like it used to be where there were hidden Gems or players that for the NFL for some reason shut from the league ala Moon or Flutie.
