Anyone else sitting Spiller until he performs?

I have F Jax, DMC, Stacy & Mendenhall. At this point, I'd rather play any of those guys ahead of Spiller. I'm sitting Spiller until he decides to do something.

RB1: DMC
RB2: F Jax
Flex: Stacy

Now I'm sure He'll go for 125 yds and 2 TDs against the Saints next week, but I can't bring myself to start him again.

Was about to say, the second you sit him he will go off. lol

Stacy is playing the Seahawks this week. Might want to at least look at your WRs for the Flex spot. I'm playing one over Stacy there this week.

Would do that in a heart beat. Hell, I'd take Decker for that matter

My running backs now are DMC, Ridley, d Williams. But I wish you best of luck with most likely your first pick in the draft. Biggest headache this year.

He's got an ankle injury he's been fighting through. It would be nice if the Bills would just let him take a week or two off to get to 100%. I believe that is a big part of his recent lack of production. He makes his hay on big plays too, so without his homerun ability the numbers are putrid.

I'm holding on. I think he may turn out to be quite helpful come the playoffs.

I've been saying the same thing, but at 3-4 after this current week, I can't lose any games waiting around for him. 9-5 will probably get me in the playoffs in my league. 8-6 MIGHT get me in if the right people lose. I don't have much wiggle room. Thank god I drafted F Jax late, or I'd be screwed completely

He wasn't hurt to start the season and he didn't perform. He also hasn't been given the ball until he's thrown up once this season.

I'm in the same boat. Im trying to ride Moreno, Graham, and a solid wr corps to get into the playoffs. It's going to be tight, but im not going to get the value for Spiller thay would make him worth trading.

So it's hold on and hope he starts delivering in a few weeks. The talent is there, but the situation isn't great.

It is times like this where I wish that I had a mentally handicapped person in my league to trade with.

The guy is in first place. And is the highest scorer. I think he was drunk or hungover. And yesterday he definitely regretted the trade.

Yeah. Unless someone brings a DT88 type trade. I won this week with Brees and DMC on bye so I am ecstatic about that. Next step is to be sure I choose the right lineup every week.

I wish they would just sit Spiller for a week or two until he is healthy. They don't have a bye until week 12 so he may just have to miss some time.
