Many running backs have played in both leagues and some do well up here, and some down there. Troy Davis was a huge bust in New Orleans but carved out a decent career up here. Mike Pringle I believe gave the NFL a whirl and was not very good down there.
The list of players whom have done well down in the NFL, whom have CFL roots is few and far between I am sure. I cannot even recall a RB who left the CFL and did well in the NFL.
