Personally, I think Spiller is really tempting but he's a top 20 pick and I'd rather look for someone in the 3rd or 4th round

I love Spiller, he can do it all & seems a solid guy. I would love it if we got him, but the smarter move would be a LT if one's available & we have a top 10-15 pick.

Norwood is a burner, I'm surprised he doesn't get the ball more in atl. I thought sproles re-signed last year? did he just play w/franchise tag?

Lendale White is not dependable IMO.

Norwood is FRAGILE as they come.. He's constantly dinged up. I'd be fine with a RBBC next season with a banger like White and a speed guy to complement him. Ganther should be at least part of the camp mix.
