Very lucky. And Spiller sounds like he might play after all this week.

I don't think Jackson is going to come back this week if Spiller is able to play. THere's no reason to rush him back with Spiller doing what he's doing.

I don't know what they're going to do with both of those guys. One of them is going to have to get traded at some point. Maybe to dallas or indy. No way Spiller is going to just go back to sitting on the bench after doing what he's done now 2 years in a row when Jackson has gone down.

If they can get jackson in and get him a few good games I wouldn't be surprised to see him go to indy for next year's 1st or 2nd round pick.

 

Yea, Donald Brown is a decent runner. But Spiller is a beast.

 

He would turn that team INSTANTLY in to a playoff possible team.

Brown is solid but he's really a number 2. Looking at backs spread around the league right now that are stuck in battles for the number one slot that would be an improvement...

DeAngelo Williams/Jonathan Stewart
Michael Turner/Jason Snelling/Jacquizz Rodgers (this will be an issue in 1-2 years)
Kevin Smith is going to want out of Detroit after the B.S. they're pulling on him.
Andre Brown is gonna make noise in NY when Ward comes back. LOL.
Arian Foster/Ben Tate/Justin Forsett. Tate is going to want out eventually and Forsett is fine for a back up.

And there's no way in hell they're going to be able to keep Fred Jackson/C.J. Spiller/Tashard Choice/Johnny White. All happy. White looks pretty good. Choice is solid back up. C.J. is a starter on probably half the teams in the NFL right now. So is Jackson so one of them is gone. If not this year then before the draft for sure.

Personally... I'd trade Jackson but Spiller probably has more value due to Davis being down 2 years in a row.

 

Yea, it all bodes well for Spiller.

 

Buffalo would be stupid to trade Spiller away at this point and try to rely on Fred Jackson. Jackson is 31 years old coming off a season where he was put on IR due to a fractured fibula and then gets a knee injury this year. He most likely won't be around much longer. If he gets traded I'd be shocked if they got anything more than a 3rd Round pick at best for a RB on the wrong side of 30.

I was rather surprised that DeAngelo Williams didn't opt to go to the Rams, but decided to stay with the Panthers where him and Stewart are fighting for playing time. He would have fit well with the style of play the Rams have, but oh well, guess he figured he liked Carolina better and chose to stay there.

Michael Turner is 30 years old now and looks to be slowing down. He doesn't look like "The Burner" anymore as the offense seems slower when he's running the ball. He can still grind out the tough yardage though, but he may not be around all that much longer. The Head Coach for the Falcons (Mike Smith) came out earlier this year and said he believe Jacquizz Rodgers can be a 3 Down Back. That's yet to be seen, but he is definitely faster that Turner so I wouldn't be surprised to see Turner gone and them rolling the dice with Rodgers & Snelling (who has played well in limited action previously for the Falcons) be the starting backfield for the Falcons.

 

Look to trade some of my WRs, including Jennings, for a top RB so send me some offers.

 

I think you should send others offers

 

I tried.


I lost him on waivers. Grrrrrrr. To a dude with 5 able RB's. LOL.

I think you're gonna win it all this year man. With that trade and you having some weird power of the waivers... LOL!

I'll finish in 4th I think.

 

Yea, and I'll finish in 3rd.

 

Psssh!

He ain't winning ****!

 

I'm not going to do **** in this league it appears. Each opponent I have faced has had their highest scoring week when I have played them. Even when my team does great I've been brutalized lol

 

You have a solid shot too I'd say. Pretty deep team. I was looking over your guys and I don't think I have anyone you'd need to trade for an RB. LOL!

 

Lol. Thanks for the encouragement.

 

They all suck. If they were able, I wouldnt need to keep trying elsewhere.

 

LOL... I'm on my way there. You should see the list of names I'm scraping off the bottom. LOL!

It's not that bad though... other league I'm in... one dude has 8... EIGHT running backs.
