Just for the hell of it the average salary in the CFL is 80 grand, rookie salary is 50 K.
Just for comparison Matt Ryan salary is more than the entire combined salary of the Canadian Football League.
But if the kid buckles down and tears it up who knows he might get repatriated.

Did Manziel screw the Browns over? Absolutely, 100%. But it's a two way street. The Browns grossly failed in doing due diligence on the guy before they drafted him, or totally ignored the red flags. He ran out of strikes with the Browns, but hell, guys get fired from their jobs every day for being drunks. That doesn't mean guys can't turn their lives around IF they overcome their addictions.
Johnny has gone the equivalent of being a top computer programmer to a greeter at Wal-Mart. If he wants to climb the job scale again, that's up to him.

Well maybe eventually.......
"I've been pleasantly surprised the last three weeks what a good teammate he is, how smart he is, how he sees the game,'' Jones told ESPN.com. "He should be playing in the National Football League, and I believe he will when he gets through with us.'........

USA TODAY Sports' Lorenzo Reyes discusses Johnny Manziel's roller-coaster football career and his opportunity with the CFL's Hamilton Tiger-Cats.USA TODAY SPORTS
Johnny Manziel has been traded by the Canadian Football League's Hamilton Tiger-Cats to the Montreal Alouettes.
The Tiger-Cats and Alouettes announced Sunday the multi-player deal that included the 2012 Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback.
Johnny Manziel was a backup for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in what is his first season in the CFL.DEREK LEUNG, GETTY IMAGESStuck behind incumbent quarterback Jeremiah Masoli on the Tiger-Cats' depth chart, Manziel was relegated to backup duty in his first season in the CFL. In Montreal, however, Manziel will be reunited with coach Mike Sherman, whose final season at Texas A&M was also Manziel's redshirt season in 2011. Sherman is in his first season with the Alouettes.
The Alouettes are off to a 1-4 start this season and have scored the fewest number of points (69) while allowing a league-high 148 points.
The other quarterbacks on the Alouettes' roster include Vernon Adams Jr., Drew Willy, Jeff Mathews and Matthew Shiltz. Adams was recently signed by the Alouettes. Adams — who played collegiately at Oregon and Eastern Washington — started his CFL career in Montreal before joining the Saskatchewan Roughriders in 2017. Willy was forced to leave the Alouettes' latest game — a 25-8 loss to the Calgary Stampeders on Saturday — with a hand injury. Mathews is out with a foot injury. Shiltz, the third-string QB, Shiltz played the final three quarters against the Stampeders.

.........continued........
Montreal acquired Manziel and offensive linemen Tony Washington and Landon Rice from the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in exchange for defensive end Jamaal Westerman, wide receiver Chris Williams and first-round draft picks in 2020 and 2021.
Manziel is trying to resurrect his professional football career in the CFL after more than two years away from the game. After a decorated career at Texas A&M, Manziel was a first-round draft pick by the Cleveland Browns in 2014. During two seasons in Cleveland, Manziel started eight games, but off-the-field issues, including substance abuse and a domestic-violence case, led to his release.

Actually Sherman is quite familiar with JM strengths and the Alouettes are not scoring so far this year. He is given new life with Sherman. Manziel & Evans used to tear up Sherman's starting defense as the scout team when they redshirted as true freshmen. We were hearing all kinds of rumors about what was coming from the A&M practice field, which is where the JFF legend started.

Last night on......of all things.....ESPN SEC REWIND I saw the T A&M at Alabama game and the high point of Mr. Johnny Football's football career.
29-24 final, the Freshman Heisman and everyone prematurely making him the best quarterback ever!
Can't believe I actually watched SEC REWIND.
