News from up North
We signed another player from the CFL. He seems good.

YouTube - Dominique Dorsey Missed Field Goal Touchdown vs. Montreal

I'm an Argos fan (long story) and I watch a lot of CFL, this guy is definitely electrifying

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

Did they already announce the field goal kicker we signed from Canada also? Dave Rayner.

Here's another story on it:

It was announced, but I don't think Rayner is from Canada is he?

Pardon. No, I think he plays up there also. Not a native of Canada.

This would be an upgrade at the RB position maybe and it would be the scat back the RB coach was requesting to play along side Portis. I wonder if this is the end for both Rock and Betts?

Let's hope he's talented enough to stay on as a punt returner. We need one.

I like the idea of having a weapon on Special Teams, Rock is great, but maybe some younger legs can break some big plays for us!

Re: News from up North
Here are his 2008 CFL Stats (Att-Yds-Avg-TD):
Kick Returns: 50-1257-25.1-1 (4th in league)
Punt Returns: 63-752-11.9-1 (4th in league)
Rushing: 64-410-6.4-2
Receiving: 15-286-19-0

I'm guessing he'll compete with Rock for the 3rd RB/KR spot...

His CfL stats for KO return numbers are no better than Rocks in the NFL and rock has ave. for the past two years is 25.7 yards with over 1300 total each year. Maybe they are looking at him for punt returns but I don't think they would bring a guy in just for punt returns.

He runs forward, he's an upgrade.

Not exactly, that first move wouldn't work in the NFL

Re: News from up North
I am not getting excited yet. He hasn't made the final 53 man roster.

On a side note we can trade Betts and Randle El now and either promote or cut Rock.

In one sentence you're saying don't get too excited because he hasn't made the final roster. Yet in the next, you're talking about getting rid of 2-3 similar players
