QB Terrelle Pryor declines Canadian Football League offer.

Terrelle Pryor, formerly of Ohio State University, has declined an offer to play for the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the CFL. It seems as though he is going to wait for the NFL supplemental draft later this summer. That's not necessarily a bad move as long as he didn't out right reject the CFL offer. I personally do not believe he will be drafted in the NFL supplemental draft. I think he should have taken the offer from the Roughriders even though they probably didn't offer much more than what local memorabilia dealers where offering him while he was at OSU. He seemed to have no problem taking the money while he was in college, he should have continued to take the money the CFL offered him. If he really wants to play in the NFL, he should strongly consider switching to wider receiver. With his size and athleticism he could make a quality possession receiver in the NFL. He won't make QB money, but he will probably make more than a CFL contract, if he is willing to work at the WR position. I think the only real question left is, how little is the Pryor memorabilia worth now. The tattoo parlor owner can't possibly get a good return on investment in this deal. Especially considering most of Pryor's wins as a QB at OSU are about to be vacated by the NCAA, if not all of them. Oh well, maybe a lesson can be learned from all of this. Although, I highly doubt that this sort of behavior will stop.
