Shocker the pick you don't like you compare to a bad player. He's at worst somewhere between the two and gives us some insurance if Roninson pulls a Steve Slaton.

Spiller was not a bad player. He just went to a team that didn't provide him the weapons he needed to succeed and he got injured a lot because of it. The same goes for Etienne. He is a very good RB, but in order to succeed, he needs to be able to hit the corners and have room to break free. That all depends on the OT's. A RB can only do so much with the space he is given. I'm not complaining about the player, I like Etienne. He was my #2 RB, but he doesn't fit with what we currently have. He needs good edge run blocking. Unless he starts running between the Tackles, he isn't gonna find much running room.
