    He won't have the snot beaten out of him and his family name carries weight in NFL circles, so I guess he figures he has a got shot at getting signed if he stays in shape.

    I believe he is hurting himself and his future aspirations to play in the NFL. The best course to me is to come back to Toronto and deliver on his 1,000 + 1,000 goal that he has already set, and was already training for. That would bring him a bigger signing bonus down South. I have a gut feeling that we'll see #32 in the Argo backfield this season. It's the right thing to do for both parties. Give him a few more shekels and get a solid shot at winning another Grey Cup
    Hustle hit and never quit

    Except for the fact Wilder has already had a couple of chances in the NFL and didn’t stick.

    His family name didn't carry much weight before he signed with the Argos though. He had exhausted his NFL options at that point. I don't see a half-dozen CFL games over two years changing a lot of minds down there.
