"The 22-year-old former USC standout went to Canada to prove he was healthy enough to play football again after suffering a heart attack, the subject of a lawsuit against the school in which Armstead alleges the attack was brought on by painkillers."


Strange. Painkillers don't give you a heart attack, not sure what happened there. My guess is either he did cocaine which caused the heart attack, or had a virus which caused inflammation around the heart. Regardless, if he checks out could be a worthwhile addition.


Would definitely be interesting for the NFL to expand their drafting. Since we have limited draft picks - this would be a great way to get talent if it's out there. Canada / arena football / etc are good, but is there any talent in rugby players or worldwide? Basketball is now getting elite players from Europe, there's got to be someone worldwide who's big and fast who we could develop on the practice squad..
