CJ Spiller= new LT?

[pstall]

The more I watch him, the more I see a younger MUCH faster LT. The Panther's won't pick him but man....

[CatMan72]

...or the next Reggie Bush.

I went to 6 home games this semester he's not LT. Reggie Bush looked better than LT in college and that hasn't worked out too well.

I don't even know how he's advanced this high the draft. He needs a team with a good RB already in place to do the dirty work. He's not very good inside the tackles.

The browns will take him and reunite lightning and thunder

Dexter McCluster looks really good too. One of those all purpose backs.

Yeah, that's a giant load of crap.

You talking to me? You must be, because I'm the only one in the room.

I don't know what it is about Clemson players, but they rarely live up to their hype from college. Conversely, many Gamecocks' players have solid careers, yet are relatively anonymous in national coverage and seem to stick on NFL rosters. I don't have a dog in the CU/USC fight, it's just an observation.

Look at some of the big Clemson draftees in recent years: Adams (r.i.p.), Eason and Gardner. None came in and lived up to their hype.

Coversely, not many USC guys have been drafted high, however these guys are dotted all over the league.

Again, just an observation for those people frothing over Spiller and Ford.

[SorthNarolina]

Yeah, that's a giant load of crap.

I don't think he's a blue chip back like LT. To be really effective he needs to be in a duo. You're welcome to bring this up if I end up being wrong. I just don't see it happening for too long.

Spiller is a lock to be a great returner and a change of pace back in the NFL, but there are legit questions about him being a bell cow back: he's never shown a great desire or ability to get in between the tackles, take his licks and get his 3 yards and he's so-so in pass protection. The good news is bell cow backs seem to be going the way of the dinosaur.

Right now he looks like more of a Felix Jones/Reggie Bush type back rather than an LT, but that could change. I'm not sure he can bulk up all that much and I don't see him having the lower body strength as it is to be a true # 1.

Ryan Matthews is more the complete back in my eyes, but Spiller is too much of a talent for teams to pass up.
