You know I had to get a good chuckle I was on youtube watching some cj spiller 2012 highlights and to hear all these buffalo slappys on the message boards 3 weeks ago saying how Spiller was gonna get 30-35 touches a game, break records, have 2500 yards from scrimmage and 60 plus catches, double digit tds and it almost made a tear come to my eyes seeing as I bought into the hype and drank the whole picture of KOOLAID unfortunately, and against better judgement drafted Spiller 1.2 over charles.... wow I miss the good times. Chan Gayley and the 2012 bills don't look so bad afterall.

If he's playing, I'm playing him. I've gotten cute too many times in the past and it hasn't worked well for the most part.

unless you have a great alternative, sitting him is madness
I would say, if you have an alternative, starting him seems to be madness.
I am going to use him the same way I am Roddy White right now...sit him until he shows signs of life, then play him. You may have one week where he blows up on your bench, but I would rather have that than continue to start him and get no production.

Have to play 2 RBs, as of now, playing McFadden and Chris Johnson over him

That's the problem, in fantasy one win can mean the difference in making or missing the playoffs. How many weeks can you afford to run this guy out there and get you 2 points when you can use someone like Bell who has a defined roll? Plus he faces the Ravens run D this week. I think he's bench worthy like David Wilson until he shows he can be consistently productive. The only way I would start Spiller now is if my alternatives were someone like McGahee.

I have wilson and roddy and they have been riding the bench and I think Spiller is headed there to, can't make up my mind. My heart wants to give spiller another go but brain saying bench him. I have to pick 2 out of 3 Spiller/J.bell/Shorts. Im thinking bell/shorts may be better play in ppr.....

And if Rice plays, I sub Pierce by Bolden....

Charles is my RB1. I have to decide between Spiller and Jackson as the RB2. At the moment, I am sticking with Spiller.

My RB2 decision is Spiller vs Joique. IF I chose Joique, then my flex decision becomes Spiller vs Miles Austin vs Golden Tate.
Suffice to say, I'm starting Spiller and not getting cute about it. I'm as down on him as anyone but if I am benching him for Joique and Austin/Tate, I might as well throw in the towel.

Gotta play him cuz there's nothing better, but seeing this thread is a good sign... usually means some stud who's been underwhelming is about to blow up.
