It's not like we're talking about going from a 3 million backup in the NFL to a 2 million starter in the CFL... we're talking about 3 million down to 700 thousand.

Sure, Dickinson came back to the CFL, but even he waited until there was no chance of him even making a practice roster, nevermind actually carrying a clipboard... and he's probably making more with BC than he would have in the NFL, so that says even more about NFL vs CFL.

Garcia's play this year has re-elevated himself to the 3 million dollar range - regardless if he ever plays another game or not. Expecting him to take 700k to win a third(?) Grey Cup is a bit much imo.
