Speaking of Canadian Football League players, this guy went to USC and is 6'5 300lbs and has been dominant for the CFL much like Wake was

"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..

You saw that on ESPN too, he is going to sign with someone next week.

Hopefully not with New England

I'm kind of interested in seeing if Merling's got anything he can offer

[REDSKINS4ever]

The Redskins are limited in spending money. We really don't need a whole lot. I'd rather see them move DeAngelo Hall to FS and draft a young CB.

You can never have enough DL, just look at SF's depth.

SS threw out the name of Leodis McKelvin, but there are no lists of guys we are targeting. Here is the list of FA's

I wholeheartedly agree. There's no sense in wasting money in signing aging players.

I'm not a fan of Delmas, cause the dude can't stay healthy.

He's a solid player. I like the whole list with Keller IF Fred leaves. I honestly don't think we need a superstar TE with RGIII now throwing the ball. He's made Paulsen look just as effective as Davis. Cooley and Davis were great to have when our WR corps were in the dumper and we had one of he worst QB situations in the league, but RGIII can spread the ball around and make everyone effective, at least when they can catch the ball, Leonard.

I like the move of NOT keeping Fred and his overpriced salary. Between injuries and suspensions, he hasn't been worse the price we've been paying. When on the field, he's been a star, but that hasn't been enough. I like Paulsen and another serviceable TE like Keller holding down the fort at TE.

Niles Paul can go too. Experiment over, although he's a special teams beast.
