In a crowded backfield all for RBs played well demetrius crawford was just the odd man out. CFL rosters have been packed with import talent the last couple of years, now they are becoming packed with non import talent along with the demise of the higer tier Arena Footall in 2009 and now the demise of the UFL the rosters are super packed. If there were any questions about having enough players to fill 10 eams in the CFL the latest developments point to ten teams will be easily filled with a ) drop in talent level. Ottawa's addition will help but 10 will be awesome. It is time for the CFL to get to that magic numer and an even 10
