That's true; it can be argued CJ doesn't really fit the classic Roman scheme.

Could the classic roman scheme have been adapted for what he had there too? Ie maybe he likes some speed

I am as high on the coach signings as anyone.....but please tell me how he would thrive under a OC who is known for a power running attack.

 

Yeah, the Niners had LaMichael James and hardly used him. They have another small back in Lindsey Hunter but he wasn't used as a scatback. It was up-the-middle or off-tackle like CJ has been used. Gore was the guy and now they also have Carlos Hyde.

Why resign him to adapt a guy to your scheme when you're starting fresh and could get a guy who fits your scheme?

The more I research about Roman, the more worried I am getting about what he can possibly do for us.

Spiller mention in this article about the backs being excited for Ryan:

"I'm still letting it play out," Spiller said. "It's an exciting time for the Bills Mafia to get a guy like Rex, a guy who will bring a lot of intensity and a lot of fun to work.

"But I'm just taking it one step at a time and will let the due process play out."

The power run game is about the blocking.

I'm not sure if it was posted here, but I read somewhere that CJ's stats in 3 & 4 wide sets have been consistently strong, even under Marrone. I'm not certain of this, but if true it would seem to indicate that he is a dangerous weapon and Marrone really was misusing him.

How dare you, sir. Where do you get off questioning a saint?!

I think there are a couple things people agree on:

 

1) spiller can be a weapon

2) Marrone misused him

 

I don't see him being are weapon in 2015 for much of the same reason as this year. He doesn't fit the mold

Many of us were yelling to do that the entire season.

He will get a mid-sized contract, wherever he goes. The numbers don't lie - Spiller has had good years and lean years, and he will probably get a small premium for his natural ability and first-rounderness.
