KGUNBILLS Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 CJ is a very talented player, however overall has been unimpressive. He has had his moments, but can be lackluster and often does not wait for the line to open running lanes. I would let him go, and thank him for his time in Buffalo.

KOKBILLS Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 The CJ thing is interesting to me...I just don't think there will be a big market for him dollars-wise, though I think a lot of teams would like to have him as a piece of a back-field puzzle...I think CJ has some value and I would like to see him return...But I also think he should be used like Darren Sproles...And other than age, I'd rather have Sproles...Sproles got 10.5 mil. for three years...Can CJ expect much more?

CJ is kind of a small town guy that fits in well within the community. It feels like the type of place that he would want to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San-O Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 C.J.is a 1 trick pony, IMO, and had success when Gailey custom tailed things around him. Never breaks a tackle and runs OOB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Spiller should leave. He has been wasted by uncreative coaches and not apperciated by enough Bills fans. Then when he blows up on another team where he is used properly, the same fans will criticize the Bills for letting a guy with a 5 ypc walk for nothing.

It feels like the type of place that he would want to be. I know Sal Capaccio , who knows CJ pretty well, has said on several different occasions that Spiller really wants to stay in Buffalo...Sal has made a point to say it's not just hollow speech by Spiller...He really does like it here a lot... So I do think these comments by CJ are legit and heartfelt... I also think Whaley knows this and is assuming the market for Spiller (especially in a year that has some nice RB talent coming out) will be low...So he's going to stick to his guns and hope CJ decides to take their best offer because he wants to stay...

DrDawkinstein Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Id rather we lock up Hughes, sign another Guard in FA, maybe one of the TEs in FA (Cameron or Clay). Then we go into the draft without any real pressing needs, and feel out where we pick up RB, OL, DB, and TE as the draft plays out. Sorry CJ, youre hitting the market in the wrong year.

YoloinOhio Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 @mikerodak: C.J. Spiller praises Greg Roman and Chan Gailey: http://t.co/iSk3eXW9tD I think I'm the only one who wants him back. He has a chance to be used correctly in a new offense which is what everyone thinks he would excel in if he was with another team. I certainly wouldn't give him a big contract, but Whaley has essentially said that will not happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryPinC Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Translation: I want more money than I'm worth to this team? in this league? maybe open water seems a little shallower than his agent would like? Let's be real, I'm a fan of CJ and his heart, talent, but he doesn't follow his blockers well and his vision is horrendous at times. He's a situational guy, not a workhorse. I do hope we can keep him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I really appreciate that he appears to want to stay here. I'm all for keeping him IF we use him in a way that makes sense. If we go back to spreading the field out on plays we use him (either run or pass), awesome. If we stuff him into a stacked box, then we really should get another RB.

If we stuff him into a stacked box, then we really should get another RB.i would be shocked if Roman did that. He would use him like he did Lamichael James, though I believe spiller is more talented and a harder worker. He would probably also still return KOs.

I certainly wouldn't give him a big contract, but Whaley has essentially said that will not happen. I'm with you on wanting him back for a reasonable price. I think the running game suffered this year. We went from 2nd in ypg (144.2) in rushing in 2013, to 25th in ypg (92.6) in 2014. Something changed, and it was for the worse. I wouldn't put that all on Spiller. Edited February 24, 2015 by What a Tuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How dare you disputes the offensive genius of Marrone/ Hackett! They are right up there with Sean Payton and Chip Kelly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
