ESPN's Josina Anderson reports the Cardinals, Jets, Dolphins, and 49ers are "potential suitors [with] considerable interest" in free agent C.J. Spiller.

We'd add the LeSean McCoy-less Eagles after they reportedly tried to trade for Spiller last March before acquiring Darren Sproles. The Cardinals weren't prepared when Andre Ellington got hurt last year, while the Jets have been dubbed the favorites for Spiller. San Francisco needs a return man and COP runner to Carlos Hyde if free agent Frank Gore skips town. Miami is in the market for an upgrade on free agent Daniel Thomas next to Lamar Miller. Spiller is going to have a hot market despite injury concerns coming off a down 2014. He's our No. 2 available back behind DeMarco Murray.

I don't like it. First off he's always injured. Second, he's not a good compliment to Miller...we need a power back that can get the short yardage and push the pile. Third, draft is pretty deep with RBs that are cheaper options and if we're talking about signing Suh...we need cheaper options.
 
He's not a good compliment for Miller, but he could be a better back than Miller in this offense.

But I agree, he's been injured like every year and this is a very good draft to go get a compliment for Miller . . . more of that 4.6 bruiser type.

I do think Spiller is the more talented of the two by some distance, but that doesn't mean anything if he can't stay healthy.
