ShipUPride Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 If they think they are Superbowl contenders, and need a RB so badly, maybe now is the time that we get value for CJ. Let's face it, a number 1 draft pick should never be second string RB/WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dayman Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 (edited) Detroit's 2nd will be late. If they wanted him they would have to give us at least a 1 which they would not do. Also, we would probably not do that certainly not until Fred is resigned. Anyway Fred is old we would be wise to hang on to CJ.

CBD Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 The Bills aren't going to trade away their depth at RB for a low 2nd round pick when they have a high first invested in it. Â Moot point since the deadline was Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snamsnoops Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Dumb Dumb Dumb Dumb! We don't have depth, CJ hasn't really played that much (Fred is an absolute stud this year and would be starting over almost anyone at this point), He can & is being used as a receiver at this point. I would say he is more valuable then the OP thinks. Give the kid some time, he has talent, he needs to be educated by Gailey a little more. Plus Freddy aint no spring chicken, he is playing @ a high level now, but i cant see him doing more then a couple more years. We need to worry about re-signing Freddy more then a potential trade that couldn't even be possible at this point! Â Just my 3 cents worf! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SelmonSmith6378 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. Plus one million more wrongs. Though I like Fred Jackson, there will come a time (As with all running backs) when he get's old and loses the tread in his tires. When that time comes, we need someone like Spiller to carry the load. And you want to flush that hope down the toilet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDaDdy Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Don't usually say this but "dumb thread". Stop hating on CJ and stop hating on first round picks that aren't probowlers their first year. The guy is in his second year and hasn't gotten on the field because he is playing behind the NFL yards from scrimmage leader. Give it a rest. Â I'll state the incredibly obvious to most. What happens if Fred gets hurt? What happens when Fred's age catches up to him? Why would anyone trade away the 9th overall pick in the 2010 draft 1/3 of the way into the 2011 season when he hasn't had a real chance to play? Â Get real.

kota Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Some people are just crazy. CJ is a much better player this year than last. He would probably be a 1000 yard back if Fred wasn't on the team. CJ is the future RB of this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HurlyBurly51 Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Jahvid Best was a poor mans Spiller in that draft. Too bad that it's turned the other way.

Orlando Bills Fan Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Perhaps the Bills should give Spiller a full season under his belt before declaring him unworthy. He's barely played since he was signed. Patience. Â Â Agreed. He had some decent plays in the last game, I thought. They are using him as a WR/RB. I'm not completely against that. Forget for a minute that he was a first rounder, and that he might possibly be a bust. What's the best way to use him NOW? I think they (the Bills) are doing it right.

ICanSleepWhenI'mDead Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 . . . there is only one football If there's only one football, then some of the games that the NFL says are being televised live must actually be shown on a tape-delayed basis. Kind of like that OJ movie about the moon landing, except not really because that was totally staged and not just tape-delayed. Â I don't think that's happening - - - I think they have more than one football and really do play several games simultaneously each week. Â And some people think I advocate conspiracy theories!
