Because starting quality NFL players are just falling off the wagon in the CFL.
It's a different game, has different skill sets and, in general, has talent that is just not up to NFL snuff. A handful of CFL players have what it takes to be a roster player in the NFL and most of those as only role players. Only a very few CFL guys are solid NFL starters and, even then, b/c of the differences in the game it is not particularly easy to find them.
The Skins clearly scout the CFL and are willing to sign talent. If it was easy picking successful NFL talent out of the dross that is the CFL then everyone would do it.
It's from 2010 - but here is the only list I could find. Recognize
any of them? No? Think there might be a reason for that?
