Although Alex Hall was leading the league in sacks at the time he was traded in 2013, he had plans to go to the NFL after the season ended, which he did after helping Sask. win a G.C.. He was cut by the Carolina Panthers in 2014 and returned to the Riders for the 2015 season but didn't last very long. Over the last two years Neufeld has pushed the trade in the Bombers favour, but it took a heckuva long time.
