UPDATE: Bison now on the clock, Bears get Bell

True to tradition, it didn't take long for the trade market to explode in the CRFL. Less than two weeks after the Boise Bears won the 2015 CRFL Championship, major moves shake up the league. The two teams that participated in the 2015 CRFL Championship, Boise Bears and North Shore Ikaika Warriors, swapped superstars. Dez Bryant and Sammy Watkins are now on the northern side of Oahu, and Le'Veon Bell is a Boise Bear. Melvin Gordon was also included in the deal and is headed for the islands as well.

But that wasn't all. Today, despite earlier claims that there would be no trading for the #1 overall pick, Digital Plumbers sent the 2016 1.01 to the Wind River Bison for T.J. Yeldon and Allen Hurns. The Bison are on the clock. Nobody loves the draft more than the Bison (formerly Paniolos), and this will be the second time ever that the franchise picks #1 overall.

Former #1 picks in the CRFL

2011 - MIN RB Adrian Peterson (Start-up Draft)
2012 - CLE RB Trent Richardson
2013 - CIN RB Giovani Bernard
2014 - PIT WR Antonio Brown
2015 - STL RB Todd Gurley
