kelownabomberfan Posted December 10, 2013 Report Posted December 10, 2013 http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/5482/jamaal-westerman Anyone know who owns his CFL rights?
Mike Posted December 10, 2013 Report Posted December 10, 2013 Not sure but all I know is he's not an non-import.
Logan007 Posted December 10, 2013 Report Posted December 10, 2013 yup he is a non-import. Umm...what? You mean a non-import in the NFL? Considering he was born in Brooklyn, NY and went to Rutgers.
Mike Posted December 10, 2013 Report Posted December 10, 2013 yup he is a non-import. No. He's not. He played high school football in Brampton and spent enough time in Canada as a kid to be considered a non-import, but he STARTED his high school football playing days in Florida, which makes him ineligible for NI status.

Oh sorry, my bad. I thought College had some part in non-import status for US citizens. "A player who was physically resident in Canada for an aggregate of 7 years prior to turning 15 or if he’s a Canadian Citizen, was physically resident in Canada for an aggregate period of 5 years prior to turning 18
M.O.A.B. Posted December 10, 2013 Report Posted December 10, 2013 yup he is a non-import. No. He's not.

M.O.A.B. Posted December 10, 2013 Report Posted December 10, 2013 btw, anybody know how Ben Cahoon got his NI status?
Logan007 Posted December 10, 2013 Report Posted December 10, 2013 btw, anybody know how Ben Cahoon got his NI status? According to wikipedia: "Cahoon spent part of his childhood in Southern Alberta and is therefore considered a non-import under the CFL's import/non-import ratio rule.[5] " So he probably lived in Alberta for 7 years before turning 15 since they said "childhood" and not teenage years.
iso_55 Posted December 11, 2013 Report Posted December 11, 2013 Ben Cahoon was released by BYU as a receiver coach before last season. He'd make a pretty good receiver coach as he knows the CFL really well.
