Eh? The same Ricky Williams who broke his arm and was injured for basically his entire CFL stint, but still managed close to 5 YPC? The same guy who hasn't been able to get a starting gig in the NFL since his CFL days? That Ricky Williams?

With the exception of Jeff Garcia and Warren Moon, there have been very few superstar CFLers to crack an NFL lineup. That tells me there's a bit of a talent disparity, especially when CFL teams have a history of clamouring for NFL rejects like Pacman Jones. The list of guys who have flamed out in the NFL, only to go on to superstar careers in the CFL is pretty lengthy.
