Stacy Revere/Getty Images(METAIRIE, La.) — The New Orleans Saints continued their offseason makeover as they’ve agreed to terms on a contract with former Buffalo Bills running back C.J. Spiller and trading wide receiver Kenny Stills to the Miami Dolphins.
Spiller’s deal with the Saints will be four-year contract worth $18 million, with $9 million guaranteed.
A former first round pick, Spiller is a dynamic talent, but has had trouble producing on a consistent basis since the Bills selected him ninth overall in the 2010 draft.
In 2014, Spiller was limited to just nine games and had 425 total yards of offense while scoring just one touchdown.
The Saints dealt Stills to the Dolphins in exchange for a third round draft pick as well as linebacker Dannell Elerbe .
Stills is a promising receiver who in his second NFL season caught 63 passes for 931 yards and three touchdowns.
The Saints have also added cornerback Brandon Browner and Max Unger, traded tight end Jimmy Graham, and cut linebacker Curtis Lofton and running back Pierre Thomas this offseason.
