Similar role - Well that's the point. Just look at how Riddick and Bell split the volume last season. 60 something receptions split between the two, 1 game of 20+ rush attempts. Just looks like a 3 headed monster backfield at this juncture.
Pierre Thomas caught 45 passes in 11 games last season. 77 the season before (sproles 71), Sproles 75 in 2012 and 86 in 2011. That's a pretty defined role the way I see it, correct me if I'm wrong. Saints have no recieeving threats this year, Detroit has Calvin Tate Ebron etc. The cherry on top is Spiller has actually been a 1200 yard back in the league

I guess I just don't see Riddick being as much of a factor as you

I mean it's not like the offense is wide open for him to take over. And while talented, it wouldnt be the first time a more talented back had to wait his turn.
He does have a few things going against him, his size and fumbling issues, so watch out for that.
I think he could have a rookie year like Gio Bernard did.
170 for 695 5Tds
56 for 514, 3 TDs
