Notable players in the CFL
The time of the year has come again for me where I try hard to get into the CFL because really there aren't much sports out there. I wanted to find out what players I know of maybe from College or NFL who play in the CFL currently. I lazily googled and I couldn't find anywhere that has a list of ex NFL current players in the CFL . It shouldn't be this hard to find this. So i decided to do my own research and go roster by roster to see who I recognize. At the end of this article I'll review who I saw and make my decision on who I'll be rooting for.
BC Lions:
John Beck- ex Dolphins QB draft pick bust (I'm a Dolphins fan so already made decision, the hell with the BC Lions)
Winnipeg Blue Bombers:
Brian Brohm- hey I remember him! Former Louisville star QB, older brother is Jeff.
Robert Marve: He finally graduated from college? HOLY SHIT! (QB for Miami Hurricanes and Purdue)
Bruce Johnson: ex Miami Hurricane and New York Giants DB
Edmonton Eskimos:
Pat White: Failed Bill Parcells era draft pick for the Dolphins
Hamilton Tiger-Cats:
Dan LeFevour: I actually remember this guy from Central Michigan because he left college as the all time total touchdowns leader (broken since then in 2011)
Jacory Harris: Quite possibly the worst starting QB in Miami Hurricanes history. Um yeah I'll pass on this team...
Calgary Stampeders:
Drew Tate: Ex Iowa QB
Toronto Argonauts:
No one I recognize, this might actually be a good thing.
Saskatchewan Roughriders:
On team name alone I like this team more already. I totally copy pasted the team name too.This is how RoughRiders roll.
Macho Harris: They have a guy named Macho!
Tino Sunseri: They have a Tino!
They also have a Sisco....
Montreal Alouettes:
Chad Johnsons team. Fun to watch this team based on him alone.
Troy Smith: notable for being an ex Ravens QB. Oh and he won a Heisman Trophy at Ohio State.
Ottawa REDBLACKS:
Henry Burris: 39 year old QB. Ex usual sucky Chicago Bears QB.
Okay as you can see not many notables on any of these teams while scanning through their rosters. Who should I root for this year? Probably no one but it would be Winnipeg for now. Bruce Johnson being on the team is kinda cool.
