Won rookie of the year with 16 sacks, won DMVP with 23 sacks the following year...Didn’t Cam win DMVP the two years he was there?

Those in Canada definitely knew he was special. Jefferson is not special just great in the CFLTo be fair, most didn't believe Cam Wake was as good as he ended up becoming. I firmly recall many fans thinking the move was a reach and even Joey Porter wise cracked Wake during his first season.
Point is, only time will tell what Jefferson is. We have no idea right now, just like when Cam first started with Miami.

hes not as good as Cam Wake, but hes good.
I agree that's light, but we had a guy #99 that was long and light that played pretty good. I know, it's an unfair comparison but it could work.6'7 248 does that feel lite to anyone else? McMillian is 245ish and is 6'2, AVG is 250ish and is 6'4. Any way Miami ask him to put on 20 lbs and be more of a pass rushing 3 technique who clogs passing lanes with his reach.
One thing I always like to mention with CFL pass rushers is they start with an inherent disadvantage because they start I believe with a minimum of 1 yard separation for O-linemen. So they can anchor prior to being engaged. If he is that quick off he snap he could develop well being able to be right on top of his competition.
The issue is not weed, It's being able to tell if the player is high at practice or game time.relax - the league’ll be revisiting the “weed” issue this offseason and on into the CBA negotiations if not resolved before next camp.. expect a revised use provision being approved
No end of season Chronicles?

That is soooooo funny Because I was one of the very few banging the drum and taking a beating for itYou can tell me that now, 11 years later. But nobody at the time was voicing that here or anywhere else. People were highly skeptical. Even after year 1. That’s all I’m saying. Yet look how it turned out.
Nobody knows for sure whether Jefferson will be a good player or not. The future isn’t set in stone.
It’s easy for everyone to predict he won’t be very good or nowhere near the impact Wake had because those types of success stories don’t happen often. So the odds are in favor of the naysayer. Just as they were when Wake first came over from the CFL.There were a lot of naysayers then too. That’s precisely the point.
I wish he was younger, but hey, we’ll take all the help we can get.
