    And too bad Terry wasted some NFL time stuck behind 49ers star receivers (Rice & Taylor); did more in his last season with more playing time with Detroit

    It’s unfotrunate Greer originally signed with the Browns upon his CFL departure. Sam Rutigliano had no clue.

    A glaring example of NFL cluelessness about top CFL talent - unless the guy was a top NFL draft pick before or has some coaching connections down there in his corner, the chances of getting to play or be recognized are not that good.

    That was Marty Schottenheimer. He always had little use for big play receivers.

    Wasn’t Greer not hampered by hamstring injuries during his time with the Browns?
