I disagree. C. J. Spiller is an oustanding talent, but he's only 195 lbs. He would be a great compliment to an
offense that already has a big, dominating bruising rb, which the Browns do not have.
He shared carries with Davis because he isn't a big guy. In Cleveland winters, you have to be able to pound the ball
down the field.

C.J. Spiller Scouting Report
Projected Draft Position
by FFToolbox Writers
C.J. Spiller will be drafted
1st Round
Position: RB
School & Year/Status: Clemson - Senior
Jersey Number: #28
Height & Weight: 5'11 - 195 lbs.
Ranked #24 on our Top 100 Prospects Board
2010 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
C.J. Spiller, RB, Clemson
C.J. Spiller had to deal with splitting carries with James Davis for most of his career. Even without the entire workload, Spiller has put up some great numbers. As a freshman, Spiller tallied 938 yards on the ground and 12 total trips to the end zone. In 2007 Spiller rushed for 768 yards, but it was during that season he emerged as a great pass catcher out of the backfield. The 5-11 back caught 34 passes for 271 yards and two touchdowns. In 2008 Spiller totaled 629 rushing yards, 436 receiving yards and ten total offensive touchdowns.
The big question after Spiller opted to return to Clemson for his senior season was how well he could manage the workload on his own. After all, Spiller is a 5-11, 195 pound speed back. Through five games the results have been relatively mixed.
Spiller is handling the carries and easily leads the team with 360 rushing yards, but his yards-per-carry numbers are down and he only has one rushing touchdown through five games.
However, the lack of production can be blamed on a lackluster offense. Spiller's speed and quickness should make him one of the top running backs in this class. In this day and age of multiple running back teams in the NFL, Spiller is the perfect compliment to a power back.

Jennings needs more experirence. If he had a better feel for the game or better vision, he could have had a few more runs that took him to the second level.

His size isn't a hinderance to his potential. Just because he's small doesn't mean he can't take a hit. To tell you the truth, he's probably more "big and bruising" than the RB's we have on our current roster. I'd love to see him in Cleveland, to re-create the "Thunder and Lightning" ground attack that worked for them in Clemson.
