C.J. Spiller Released - Mistake or Necessity?

I don't understand all the cadet hate. He's no Sproles but he performed admirably last year when Ingram went down. Good special teams player. A lot of bang for the buck.

Meh, he could do more, I find myself underwhelmed by him every year.

Remember week 17 last year vs Falcons, he fumbled on the 2 yard line right into the endzone, that would have put the game away, luckily our defense got an interception anyway.

Last week, dropping 2 straight passes on an important drive.

I just don't know, yeah he knows the offense but if he's really that smart I'd expect to see something in his play and he rarely shows anything.

uhm his last game we could have started any high school player in the state and did just as good.
