Yeah thats too bad, they should start up a farm league just like baseball for each NFL team. Run it during the offseason and keep it in the USA and Canada.

Hopefully some of these younger players decide to play in the CFL for a few seasons first. There may be a high player turnover rate as NFL teams grab these players up, but more talent to the CFL is always a good thing.

If anything it was just a place for some college players who weren't drafted to go and use as a minor league system. Still, they had a good run.

The NFL should approach the CFL and attempt to get them to change their format to a more conducive version of the game with theirs, even if they use an NCAA format... With NFL Europe gone, that means a lot more talent will be headed North to play and this could be a great chance to get both leagues working together while also setting fealers out for how a franchise would do in various Canadian provinces and maybe even one Alaska. It might actuely be a good thing for the game in the long run... On both sides of the boarder.
