I would go with Ridley I can see him getting 15-20 touches a game and being very productive. help me with mine ?http://www.fantasyfootballcafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=519000
if you're talking dropping Spiller for Ridley then no. Spiller will be the man till Jackson gets back, the MRI came back inconclusive so it looks like at least 1 week, I'd bet closer to 3 weeks. Ridley is a nice pick up, could you drop Hill for Ridley or do you have roster restrictions?
Considering your RB depth, I'd go Spiller. If you needed a FLEX or RB2 starter for the rest of the season, I'd say Ridley. But I like Spiller's upside better.
Oh yes then, IMO Spillers real value is only until Jackson is back. Ridley looked really good, and lots of people forget that when the Patriots had a good back (more them just a plodder) they used them a decent amount, and I don't count BJGE. I think Ridley has pretty good value throughout the rest of the season, lots more then Spiller who I feel has real value for only a few weeks.

I agree with Prophecy. Ridley may be on a pass happy offense, but he looks a better that BJGE, and he is on an offense which is going to see a LOT of trips to the red zone. Opportunity breeds success. And Ridley is sure to have more opportunity in the longrun.
