I'm from Saskatchewan and have watched almost every game of his since he's been in the CFL. He's really quick, runs good routes and has AMAZING hands, he reminds me of Wes Welker cause of how white he is.
FYP

The kid has some great hands, period. Sign him, what can it hurt. Put him with the accuracy of AS and see what happens. He does remind me of Wes Welker.

Jim Caldwell reminds me of Romeo Crennel

To be fair, a few of those guys could have played in the NFL from the start. If Warren Moon is white, he's a day 1 rookie starter at QB. That's just, you know... reality.

As for Ismail, the CFL made him the highest paid football player in the world. He was an NFL caliber player though... the NFL just got outbid for him.

Wake was a nice revelation.

Here's a neat little nugget.

In 1983, Dieter Brock was traded from the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats for quarterback Tom Clements (in 2000 was the QB coach for the Chiefs and now is the current Packers OC). This trade led to an exciting Grey Cup in 1984, as the Tiger-Cats and Blue Bombers faced each other in the championship game. Brock's Tiger-Cat team lost the game to Clements's Blue Bombers and Brock ended his career with many accomplishments, but without a Grey Cup victory. In 1985 Brock played for the Los Angeles Rams before retiring from football. Technically a rookie during his one season with the Rams, Brock led the team to an NFC Championship Game matchup with the Chicago Bears, and set team rookie records for passing yards (2,658), touchdown passes (16), and passer rating (81.8)

Slow and white... Pass.

What position does he play? Is it wide oot?

He's a white slot receiver. I'm assuming he's a Wes Welker type

I'm thinking more along the lines of a Randy Moss type.

This is all true.

But there have been other half way decent guys to come from the CFL who needed a little development or were overlooked.

I'll bet there are a lot of guys up north that could help nfl teams.
I mean there has to be a safety better than Lewis up there right?

And he had Michael Bishop QB so I'm sure he was forced to have to make some great catches
