With all of the defections and uncertainty, I'm certainly expecting a really low quality CFL season next year.
Maybe, but when both of those new leagues fizzle out in a couple years, all that talent, much of it unearthed simply because of those leagues being an option, will have to find somewhere to play, and NFL camps are only so big.

CFL will be fine, it’s gotten past these things before. Bo, like DD before, may get sick of holding a clip board or three in a couple seasons, and come back to play. Many other good players get eaten up and swallowed by the massive NFL machine, and even if they get a signing bonus, thst doesn’t replace playing and they could be cut at a moments notice.

The CFL vs the union this offseason will be a bigger deal to see how that affects many issues with the game and rosters and losing of talent.
