    CJ Spiller cut by Saints

    CJ was cut ....would he be an upgrade over Bush ?
    The C.J. Spiller experiment is over before it ever really started in New Orleans. The Saints have released the running back, per the league's transaction wire.

    He was inactive last week. What's up with that?

      CJ signed a 4 year deal before last season that included $9 mil guaranteed. I just read that the Saints are now carrying $40 mil in dead cap space for 2016. Wow. That's horrible.

      I'd like to see CJ back here. I still think he has a lot of talent and would be an upgrade over Bush. I wish things had worked out better for him.

        He was such a bust here. Had one good season out of 4. Of course all the fans always blamed Chan Gailey for not "using him" right. That's Sean Payton who just fired him. He knows a little bit about offenses. The guy is just not very good. Never was, never will. Stay away.

          He cannot be worse than Reggie Bush.

            He can't be that much better (if any) either.

                I still say he's asthmatic. I've never seen a RB who looks like he needs a respirator after every run of 10 yards or more.

                    He was pretty underwhelming under both. His one decent year was indeed with Chan. But then again so were 2 more that can't be categorized under anything but mediocre. Then he had one more subpar year with Marrone for "good" measure.

                      I wonder if the Jets would pursue him.

                        Can't see why. Forte is going to get a lot of touches, and their other rb Bilal Powell was 4 for 41 against CIN and looked good doing it.

                          Was wondering that very thing myself, but they have Forte, who Fitz went to often. Think they're more worried atm with getting the ball to real receivers. Would be interesting. Wonder though if Gailey didn't lose interest in Spiller a long time ago though.

                            CJ Spiller sucks so bad. What the **** was Buddy thinking? What a bust.

                              It was a dumb choice, but Spiller had great wheels and an eye for the hole. He labored at BUF with an OL that (still) needs a FB in the backfield.

                              I felt that with NO and their pass attack, he would prosper. No so.

                              No flies of him - I believe he tried his best. Acid-laced posts like yours are one of the reasons BUF isn't exactly a happy destination for players.
