Cameron Wake will leave the CFL's B.C. Lions after agreeing to a deal with the Miami Dolphins.
The six-foot-three-inch, 240-pound Wake was the CFL outstanding defensive player of the year in each of the past two seasons, using his speed and strength to break through offensive lines and get to the quarterback, which he did 39 times.
He led the CFL with 23 sacks the past season, more than twice as many as the next highest total. The sack total was tied for fourth-best for a single season in league history.
Wake, who turns 26 next week, played collegiately at Penn State. He went undrafted in 2005 and signed with the New York Giants but couldn't gain a foothold .
It is likely that the hybrid player, who went by his birth name Derek during his collegiate career and first NFL pass, will revert to linebacker after starring on the defensive line with the Lions.

Interesting. Sounds like a Bill Parcells move. I have a feeling this guy will be solid.

I am pleased so far with what Bill P. and Tony S have done. Some of the decisions that have been made have caused me concern only to see that they had made the right choice. I have confidence that they are bringing Miami back to the top of the AFC East, and hopefully another Super Bowl champ.

This guys a beast. The fact that they signed him for 1 million a season for 4 seasons without him having any NFL experience shows how good he is. He really should have been in the NFL last season but it didn't work out for whatever reason.
