The CFL is the professional league for FCS

Pretty much if you are an EWU alum, then you will play in the CFL. Last year, there was a week were 5 of the 8 teams starting quarterbacks for that week played at EWU.

I mean it's possible for them to have a QB alum that fits the NFL, but VA was never a good fit. All the Draft Twitter experts who thought he was a better fit for the NFL than Wentz should be mocked until the end of time.

I believe they are contracted to the CFL for 2 years minimum. So no matter what he would have to play up north unless he pulls a Manziel and gets banned from the league.

""The average salary for a CFL player is around $80,000. The NFL base salary is $450,000, so, prima facie it seems like an obvious decision, if the offer came.
However, there is a major problem with this—the NFL do not allow its teams to sign players while they are under contract with the CFL. Under current rules, a mid-season offer simply can and will not happen. The NFL can sign CFL players who are cut, or out of contract during the regular season, but for players currently signed to a CFL team, NFL teams have to wait until CFL contracts expire in February.""

Crockett is getting old by unproven RB standards in the NFL, but he looks like a man among boys in the CFL. I don’t understand how he didn’t make the cut in the AAF.
Re: *OFFICIAL* John Crockett Thread
I think John just loves the game and wants to keep playing it as long as possible. Good for him!
