It takes time to convince some of these guys to actually come up North to play. Some of the people we've seen step in this season have been on our radar for a few years. They've only just now committed to the CFL.

Not often do you see guys like Vernon Adams (as an example) come right up after passing through the NFL draft and they instead exhaust any and all opportunities south of the border. These guys hang around on practice rosters for the better part of 2-4 years and then lose eligibility. TJ Heath is a 29 year old CFL rookie after all.
