Here is a question for you Booch you have to pick 10 guys from the NFL to play in CFL who are they? Any position. 

Only semi-related but I always thought Brian Urlacher would have been a phenomenal CFL LBer...

Off top of my head currently playing I would grab Austin Ekler from the Chargers..he would be such a weapon in Canada and DK Metcalf at reciever outta Seattle..he would be a mismatch nightmare on the big field..Think Duke William's but way better athlete and wicked fast.

Also would love to see what Chris Thompson the rb in Washington could do here

He not playing anymore but Dwight Freeney who used to play for Colts would have been my defensive guy, but currently I'd have Kalihl Mack playing a Willie Jefferson role..

I'd have to think more about others tho..those guys are just ones who immediately come to mind and stand out to me to suit the CFL field and style..oh yeah Christian Kirk in Arizona as well to me would be a Terry Vaughn clone

Russell Wilson would literally be unstoppable IMO

Jeff Garcia but better.

Garcia was one of the best QBs I've ever seen in the CFL

Yip..him and Lamar would be fun to watch..they'd be my QB picks if I could have them

Fuckkkk...Lamar in the CFL.

Warren Moon threw one of the tightest spirals I've ever seen in his prime.

Garcia was pretty great for sure, but man, for my money....Flutie.......that's as close to the definition of "unstoppable" as I've ever seen...

Truth.

I just can't think of an NFL comparable. 

Flutie, Garcia, Dickenson on one team in one decade.

Insane

His speed and range were incredible. I think he would have done better up here then Ray Lewis.

Yes soo much. Gl stoping Clowney too. 

Maybe the most unstoppable would be the athletic tes though. Big strong fast vs Sam and DBS 30-40 lbs lighter it'd be Mike sellers gone wild.

One of my hilarious memories involving Flutie was during the Reinbolde era.  He had just put up some ridiculous passing numbers against the Bombers - something like 85% completion and 400+ passing yards, without even playing in the 4th quarter.

Post - Game show:

Bob Irving: Jeff, would you say Doug Flutie played an outstanding game against your defense?

Jeff Reinbolde: no he didn't Bob - there were over 56 missed assignments!

Yes. One of the amazing things about Moon is he could throw a tight spiral rolling out to his right...or left!! Incredible athlete!

Lamar in the NFL has been destruction...  ******* guy has a 33 - 6 TD/Int ratio, averages 7 yards per rush & 80 yards per game.  Those kinda numbers are MIND BOGGLING.

you don't need to pass to win,,,Navy just pounded Army in the annual game...The Navy QB rushed for 304 yards....they passed once...a wr threw a 1 yard pass for a TD....They won 31-7 

Go figure eh?

There will always be the odd anomaly in sports- the Riders won with Kent Austin slinging the ball and almost no running game, but this does not happen often enough to make it your "go-to" offence.

I'm not Booch, but I'll give my $.02...

Wilson, Jackson, Mahomes - qb

McCaffrey, Barkley - rb

Tyreek Hill - wr

Aaron Donald, JJ Watt - dt

Minkah Fitzpatrick - sam

Myles Garrett - DE

QB's Jackson and Rodgers 

RB - Delvin Cook Christian McCaffrey

WR - Tyler Lockett Cooper Kupp

WR/KR - Jakiem Grant

Multiple Posisitions on D - Harrison Smith

CB/KR -Patrick Peterson

In my opinion (or I’m just guessing) this isn’t really the intent of this question... of course the superstars in the nfl would be superstars in the cfl... I think he was wondering what secondary/mid level guys would excel in the cfl...

a few guys off the top of my head... bills Qb Josh Allen (and he may still become an nfl superstar) would be dominant in the cfl... NYJ DE/LB CJ Mosley... Steelers rb/wr Jaylen Samuels... even Taysom Hill who has been discussed here a lot as the nfl streveler... mostly guys that are extremely athletic and versatile...

tHAT was my thought too...Hence I went for guys like Chris Thompson...Austin Ekler...

Keeping with the Bills, RB Devin Singleterry. Going a little closer to Winnipeg, Vikings RB Alex Mattison.

That why I put in a guy like Jakeem Grant. He is a excellent returner. Also very under utilized as a receiver as a senior at at he caught 90 passes for 1300 in 13 games. Played in Kliff Kingsbury system there where I think he pulled a lot from his time in the CFL.

Not necessarily. We've seen in the past how some top NFL players were absolute duds in the CFL.
