And already he's made an impression on Saints coaches and players, including quarterback Drew Brees, who compared Spiller to a couple former New Orleans backs.

"There's really not anything he can't do."

That's exactly how Spiller sees himself, too. During his best year in the NFL, Spiller caught 43 passes for 459 yards and two touchdowns. And although he's been known for his speed, Spiller said he likes to think he has the diverse skillset that will suit him well in New Orleans.
