5'9" is the same size as Tyrann Mathieu and he seems to be plenty big for the Cardinals. This cat has great speed and seems to have good hans as well. Would not be surprised at all to see him make the roster.

Replacement for a portion of Sproles. This is Cadets last season with us, if he makes it to start the season.

Returner and part time CB/RB pretty handy to have on the roster. Some really interesting players to keep a eye on during camp.

Oh yeah, the season kicks off in 22 weeks.

This tells all of us that we've been watching the CFL for a while.

I hate the phrase "camp body". It's such an asinine phrase. Everyone is a camp body. The same way that everyone signed is thought to have the potential to be a game day contributor. Otherwise, they would not be signed....

Canadian Sproles, eh?

Hicks, Ball, Brooks- that line needs a nickname. Slo- help us out

I wouldnt doubt if Lance Moore had a little to do with that, or his brother Nick Moore had a little influence in identifying possible prospects inthe CFL. . Nick played for the Pats, Vikings, and Rams.. and has been in the CFL since 2011.

Its a reach... looooong reach that there are ties, but who did we sign from the CFL before 2011?
