The Facts:
The Bills have one of the NFL's deepest backfields, but their ability to scorch teams on the ground this season will boil down to a healthy Spiller. The dynamic runner was never the same after suffering a high ankle sprain in Week 4, but Spiller told the team's official site that he rolled into OTAs this week at full strength. "I don't feel nothing, I feel great," Spiller said. "This is the best I've felt since 2012 when I had that great year. The ankle feels wonderful. I just have to keep doing what I need to do to stay healthy this whole season and try to go out there and make plays."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As NFL.com suggests, the Bills likely have tabled the concept of forcing Spiller into a workhorse role but it wouldn't a shock to see the speedy back exceed his 394 snaps from last season as a weapon primarily used in space. Whatever the case, Spiller believes he's in fine position to exceed the 1,700 yards from scrimmage he dialed up in 2012. Fantasy football owners who don't overpay on draft day could get excellent value here.
