Straight up. Would you do it?
Straight up. Would you do it?
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
Gore's 30 and has a lot more miles on him. Spiller is 26 and was underutilized until last year. So, no.
I have Gore by the way
dammit, I'm dumb. I didn't realize this was fantasy- I thought you were just throwing it out there in the BZ for discussion.
I wouldn't do it in fantasy either- for the opposite reason. Spiller's not going to do anything until EJ proves he can throw. So don't hold your breath.
Depends on the rest of your roster
Stick with Gore
My other backs are MJD, Daryl Richardson and Freddy.
You definitely don't want Spiller then. If the Bills have a bad week or when they have their bye, 2 of your 4 backs are useless.
Im just thinking thst the ceiling on Gore is hit. He's basically going to put up 12 points every other week. Whereas I feel Spiller should get into a rhythm at some point.
If you proposed the trade go for it as one has to think Spiller can turn it around or at the very least you'll have a handcuff to Freddie, if the other team preposed it then try and get more from him. As I know you mentioned having Baldwin, see if you can upgrade your WRs.Originally Posted by The King
Yes, he probably is. However, if the Bills defense continues to hemorrhage DBs then Spiller might be left behind just because we can't keep up with the scoring. We still have yet to play Flacco, Dalton, Brees, Ryan, and potentially Brady + Gronk.

I made the deal based on the fact that I get Gore tonight against STL, then CJ against CLE.
