On the other hand, being a CFL scout makes one infinitely more qualified than the average redskins fan posting on a message board.

He liked Chris Wilson when we signed him, thought he'd easily make the team and could be an impact player but he's not as high on Dorsey...for what it's worth
i agree, but i wonder what your cousin would think about Rock Cartwright or Darren Sproels if they were in the CFL... both small guys that really arent that exceptionally fast. I'm not going to get excited about this move yet, but i don't think its a BAD move on the part of the skins either. Its nice to see they are exploring all their options and actively taking steps to improve the team. If we were sitting around doing absolutely nothing, completely content with our roster, then i would be irritated.
