Happy to see this.

In a sense, Dungey has lived the dream by being signed to the Browns practice squad. It is so hard to make the league, and even just being there in that capacity means he "made it."

But I'd love to see him get the opportunity to hold a clipboard and continue to earn an NFL paycheck. Kid was so easy to root for at SU.
 
Unpaid developmental league ouch. Not a knock on D. I just mean to go get hit by those kind of guys and not even make enough for a Bic Mac...ouch, literally. Hope he does great!
 
Glad Eric is getting another chance to show his stuff. It really sucks to not even get paid but hopefully he will make the most of it
 
At least for 2017/2018, The Spring League had about 20 sign with NFL/CFL each year. Most of the NFL signees didn't make the roster, but players faired better in the CFL.

Just curious. Why isn't the CFL considered a developmental league?

I've never seen numbers about how many players transition from the CFL to the NFL but always assumed it was pretty low. They have no affiliation with the NFL and guys that go there tend to stay there. I don't think there is anything to suggest they're a developmental league.
 
The first games are in about two and a half weeks (Thursday, May 6th).
You'd think that you'd be able to see the rosters on the main website: Home - The Spring League

Here's an interesting nugget in the FAQ section:
Players in The Spring League receive housing and meals. No additional compensation is provided.

Big pay cut for any SEC guys.
