The Dean Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Seriously..wee don't need a tight end. Did anyone actually see Ebron the other day? I'm so glad we didn't take him. We are fine with what we have at tight end. I would not trade one of the scariest backs in the league for a tight end or an OLB. I said scary because Spiller is sometimes more of a threat as a decoy. BTW CJ is a third down back. they have him and Fred twisted. Once our coaches figure that out we will be on the right track with CJ. I wouldn't trade CJ for a TE. But make no mistake about it, this team could use an upgrade at TE. Having a quality TE could do wonders for EJ and the team as a whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Oh, Chandler is OK. Still think we should be looking for a TE. I agree that if we can get a TE and replace Gragg or Smith, then we should do it. Getting a TE better than Chandler at this point, I don't see happening. Thank God we still have Garrison Sanborn.

Future kuondijos and maybins await us !! Look at the majority of the last ten Patriots' drafts. Every team has Maybins. I think the jury may still be out on Koundjio (sp?) I think the last four or five drafts appear to be pretty successful for the most part. People are dogging the Bills because of this preseason but all in all, Nix and Whaley have put together a hell of a roster. They just need a freaking quarterback. That's it. Should've maybe considered taking Russell Wilson over TJ Graham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gugny Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 You know what teams stockpile draft picks? Teams that are ALREADY REALLY GOOD!!!! Trading Spiller makes no sense. Zero. There's no way to justify it and still appear to even be a little smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand why people always think it's cool to trade good players we drafted for a 5th round pick on a potential bust. It's just dumb.

stuvian Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I don't believe we will or should trade CJ Spiller. He's a great player. Releasing him would only cement our reputation as a junior varsity franchise. If it is truly in the works I call CJ Spiller for Jimmy Graham. The Saints don't want to pay Graham WR $ and they need to fill the void left by Darren Sproles whom Spiller could replace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJDK Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Your IQ and logic is way too high for this board, you make too much sense, and your argument is cohesive and salient. This could cost you your posting privileges; consider yourself warned. Like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that player is in the last year of his contract and you either aren't going to pay or don't think is re-signing with you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case ... and the "replacing" player has proven in real games that he can, indeed, replace the skills of the player in the last year of his contract, then, yes .. you consider it. Bryce Brown hasn't proven that. Spiller's "bad year" last year, as some like to call it, accounted for 933 yards whilst splitting carries with FJ, also whilst hobbled by a bad wheel. Why not keep him when your other 2 backs are a) old and b) unproven? I just don't get it. If anything ... trade Fred Jackson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I think most want a Spiller trade because they think we could get a good pick for him and he may not be here next year. That's all. Freddy ain't worth more than a fif, that's for sure.

Future kuondijos and maybins await us !! thank god you mentioned this....our golden pick for next year and WE DONT HAVE IT !!!! ya we've done such a great job with it before that's why we have sucked for 15 years but now we don't have it and it's such a crime.

Gugny Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 No. I think most want a Spiller trade because they think we could get a good pick for him and he may not be here next year. That's all. Freddy ain't worth more than a fif, that's for sure. And CJ ain't worth more than a fourf. And maybe a fird. Just not worth it. People think he's no good because he doesn't rip off 80 yard runs 4 times/game. Expectations are too high. They guy splits carries and still gets crazy yards. I don't get the hate/desire to trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 (edited) I would just like to remind everyone that despite being the worst #1 pick ever, WAY over-drafted and overrated, unable to see a hole if it was right in front of him, unable to run up the middle, not a smart football player, hating Buffalo, with the worst quarterbacking, a crappy line, and heinous coaching, CJ SPILLER HAS A CAREER 5.1 YPC AVERAGE, which is second only to Jamaal Charles amongst active backs.
