Would be good to see this guy make it.
One thing I dont like about the International Program is that any player signed up to it is not allowed to be on an active roster for two full seasons - even if they are good enough. This year, with 2 x PS players per week allowed on the gameday roster, its even worse. Should be treated as regular PS players.
The CFL is now taking advantage of the lack of playing opportunities. They've done deals with the better semi-pro leagues outside the US, most notably the GFL (Germany) and Mexico. They're getting preferential access to players and they've introduced a new category of "non-US overseas" player on their active roster (on full pay rather than PS rates). They are also playing the players former teams a transfer fee ala soccer - not a huge amount of money, but enough to influence choices. So players who otherwise would go on the NFL program are being steered to the CFL because of a combination of money and guaranteed playing time.
But overall, its all good if more International players are getting opportunities in the Pros.
P.s. unfortunately the 'Skins got the best player in this years program. I saw Bada play last year.
