Demond Washington - Auburn
Always thought he was underrated, probably because he was on a turrible defense. Doesn't surprise me he is still playing football.

Former SC RB Cory Boyd:

Boyd received several post-season honors including being named the CFL's toughest player, the Argonauts' most outstanding player and was also nominated to the CFL East All-Star Team.[3] For 2011, Boyd rushed for 1,141 yards and had 118 yards receiving having missed multiple games due to injuries. Once again, Boyd was named a RB for the CFL East All-Star Team.[4]
Boyd was released by the Toronto Argonauts on August 12, 2012. At the time of his release, Boyd led the CFL in rushing

Cory is not on Edmonton's final roster. However he could be injured again or something of that nature.

By the way, Stephen Garcia is the 3rd string QB for Montreal as well. He is behind a CFL legend (Anthony Calvillo) and Adrian McPherson. If Tebow heads up there, Garcia may need some of you USC guys to help him find a sales job.

Some are making pretty good paychecks at that. I would do it if I could. I played football in the arena leagues for a couple of years and also played high school ball with the starting receiver in Montreal (Brian Bratton - Furman) and rest assured the paychecks are worth the trouble.

Average player salary is generally right at $80,000/yr. League minimum is $45,000/yr if I am not mistaken.
