Pretty sure the CFL and NFL have an agreement whereas there can be no transfers after a certain point. I also think that player can only be active for x number of games at that point too, any more than the limit, and he's stuck in the CFL for the year.

I think the timeline is within a week or two before/after Labour Day, if a guy's going to the States, he has to go by then. I think that carries through until the NFL season's done.

I recall a Stamps returner a few years ago got sat for a game midseason, waiting for the Rams to foward him an offer that was agreed on. If he would've played that week, he became ineligible for the NFL that season.
