Looks like Spiller will be back

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Seeing that his dead money would of been 3.75 and his salary is 4.5 I think it was a smart move. Don't even know why this is a thread....

Lots of people here think he's a bust and that he should be released. It's a topic worthy of discussion. I never understand why people question threads on a forum.

If he's healthy; he will see more touches and we will see his potential. Spiller can ball as that screen/draw type back, we've all seen what he's capable of with Buffalo
woody and K Major like this.

No, this is not a worthy thread. We don't need to cut someone that will cost us another 4 million in dead money! It would only free up roughy 500K. Who the crap u gunna get with his skill set for 500K? Ill tell you, NO ONE.

Take a chill pill dude. I never said we should cut him. All i did was provide a link and make a comment about it. If you dont like the topic, move on and dont comment. It's not that difficult tough guy.

The reason it's a thread is because we were hearing at the end of the regular season that he was likely gone. The fact that those reports are being contradicted is noteworthy.

Consider source of the rumblings at the end of the season. They are paid to produce words. Fact or insight is not a requirement.

I wasn't defending the source. Simply pointing out the fact that it was reported. Yes, there are false reports out there, but there are also legitimate reports. And until it is proven as nothing more than a rumor, we can only speculate. Now we're being told he's probably staying. Do you have any proof that this information is reliable?

Geez, why do we have voices or fingers to type with, if we're all dumb, and all reporters are liars. I guess there's no point in being a fan. We know nothing, because we ARE nothing... Or am I reading too much into your words?

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

This is the stuff that just aggravates me. We have to hope for way too much. But I'm saying Spiller is not gonna burn KC, Seattle, Arizona, SF, Denver, Detroit on 10 touches a game. I also have felt Ingram doesn't get enough carries which leads to him always getting hurt. And we don't need to run more than we have. We just need Ingram to get those extra carries that were going to KRob and Spiller. Ingram cannot be a top ten back if he doesn't get 20-25 carries a game.

No. I think you nailed it on the head. As fans we are nothing. No "information" is reliable unless it is stamped as an official NFL transaction.

Yes, we have fingers, and eyes, and voices, and irrational thoughts. I spent ten years working in the sports media arena. In this case I know what I am talking about. There are as more idiots clacking away at computer keys and pontificating on the air percentage wise as there are fans reading their sewage.
