Re: C.J. Spiller Released - Mistake or Necessity?
Mistake? waste of money sure but i said that the day we signed him.
Necessity? negative effect on cap makes this kind of silly. lets see what shakes out of this. |

Re: C.J. Spiller Released - Mistake or Necessity?
We took on an injured player
We gave him guaranteed money We gained minimal from him as he was injured We allowed him to get healthy Then we sent him out into free agency with no return on our investment Great job Mickey and Sean..... |

Re: C.J. Spiller Released - Mistake or Necessity?
There should have been an option for both. It was a mistake to sign him and it was a necessity to cut him. It was a cluster **** to guarantee so much to an injured player.

Re: C.J. Spiller Released - Mistake or Necessity?
I may be wrong in this thinking but I truly believe we tried to trade him. The problem is I don't think anyone wanted to take over that salary. I would think no matter the round draft pick he should have warranted, that the salary had to be the reason.

According to Sean we did try, but we had to make roster moves and had to cut bait in a hurry. It is what it is. Onward and Upward. If it were me I'd try and trade for a solid (read 'starting') corner.

Necessity; Injuries have put the defense in a bad spot... He hasn't shown much of anything, why keep him around waiting for something to happen...
