This is a cheap replacement for Jamaal Charles:


Spiller is now well removed from his best days with the Bills in 2012 and 2013 so it is a stretch to bank on him being a contributor for Kansas City. A more immediate question may be whether his arrival spells the end of Jamaal Charles‘ time in Kansas City. Charles has a cap number of over $6.1 million and the Chiefs would get it all back if they move on from a player who has played just eight games over the last two seasons due to knee problems.

Well, like I said, good luck with that.

I bet he can still run a pretty good screen.

I could never figure out why they didn't move him him out wide more often. When they did, I remember them getting ridiculous mismatches and Spiller running around by himself in open field. But they didn't throw it to him when it happened anyway. They were determined to treat him like an ordinary running back though Gailey was all about getting his waterbug back, and kept running him into the line when he couldn't find holes very well to begin with.
