CJS is barely playing for the Buffalo Bills right now; he's not 100% but is still more explosive and effective than Fred Jackson and Tashard Choice, yet Choice and Jackson are playing most of the snaps. I don't believe Doug Marone feels Spiller is a fit for his power running scheme and his relegated him to a change of pace RB. With that said I wonder if Buffalo would be willing to trade CJ Spiller, and if they are Jacksonville would be smart to engage them in trade talks. I would offer MJD and a 4th round pick for his services, thoughts?
Spiller has been hampered by a foot/ankle injury I thinm

Yea I know, but even when he was healthy earlier this year they didn't use him much, would you try to trade for him.
Mjd and 4th for spiller? 0% chance
Even if by chance the Bills are looking to trade C.J. Spiller, it's hard to picture them having significant interest in trading for MJD. The Bills are in season # 1 of a new regime. They have a very unstable QB situation, in large part because of injuries at the position. A RB with only 10 regular season games remaining on his contract as part of a package for Spiller wouldn't be maximizing Spiller's trade value.
Spiller looked like crap the first 3-4 weeks of the season maybe even more. Every time I checked his stats for my fantasy teams, he was always at like 2.5 YPA or less.. he destroyed 2 of my fantasy teams after having a crapton of yards last season. Fred Jackson has been more effective for most of the season save for maybe the past couple of weeks.
They aren't using Spiller? He's either hand the most carries or tied for the most every game except the Browns game, which was on a short week after he had an ankle injury. He's their best back despite his struggles early in the season, they aren't trading him.
Seriously, Tashard Choice, he of 14 carries, playing most of the snaps with Jackson...

This, they definitely wouldn't trade Spiller.

Personally I thought Fred Jackson has done an impressive job with running the ball this season. CJ isn't averaging great numbers and is dealing with an injury. Jackson has been pretty dominant in the redzone and getting touchdowns minus last weekend.
Not a chance. I talked to a bills fan about this a couple weeks ago and he said cj is there best player and they are basically saving him and not rushing him back.
