Am I the only one that thinks Spiller is in for a monster year?

I believe he could finish as a top 2 back.

I'm honestly tempted to trade his owner straight up by giving him Foster. (It's a keeper league and I feel he will never part ways with him after this year)

Call me crazy do something please. But Spiller just runs angry and is as explosive as AP IMO.

Supposedly Jackson has looked pretty slow in camp so far. He's 32 and coming off back to back knee injuries

This is the first year that i'm extremely high on spiller. Ranked him between 3 and 4 in PPR.

I love Spiller's home run ability, but I've gone on record saying he won't hold up this year.

He could be the #1 back. But so could 9 other guys.

If you like him you like him. No denying the talent

Every indication is that he is going to get an absurd amount of touches; not only do I see that as an opportunity for points, but also injury. I have always been opposed to trying to draft according to potential injury, but this is one that I'm pussing out on.

I have Spiller and Forte in a keeper league and the #2 pick in the draft...a stacked team just dropped Alfred Morris (apparently couldn't get a trade done) but I doubt I get him....not sure what to do...Dez Bryant, MJD, Lacy (for furture)???? No PPR.

I really like Spiller but I still rank him behind AP, Foster, and Lynch.

I think Manuel has to be really good to help spiller out. If teams stack up the box then spiller won't do much but if Manuel keeps them honest then he can. Kinda like rg3 helped Morris last year

Insert Ponder and AP and I feel like its the same

I don't think Spiller needs a good QB. If teams stack the box that's opens up chances for a big 70 yard run with his speed and power. A lot like ap gets. Teams load the box he breaks through and is gone.

Except that Spiller isn't Peterson.

I think he is the closest thing to AP, and I don't think anyone else runs like Spiller does (besides AP)

CJ owner and I have been in trade talks. I tried CJ2K or Gore and a Mike Wallace. No go. He thinks I wouldn't think of trading Foster.

So I suggested Foster and Wallace for Spiller and V Jax. Thoughts?

The speed is there along with a solid build, but I dont think he runs in a bulldozing style like peterson. Peterson is just a freak of nature when it comes to just running over people.

Ok I got on the verge of

Spiller and B Marsh for
Foster and Wallace

He countered with
Spiller and A Johnson for
Foster and Wallace.
