The guy played in one preseason game and was essentially the entire offense.
He is bigger than you think.
Quicker than you think.
Stronger than you think.
Huge catch radius.
Catches everything.
No top end speed, but he's at least as fast as Anquan Boldin ever was.
Only two things stopped him from playing lots more last year: we had no OC that had a clue about what an offense looks like, and Spruce couldn't stay healthy.
... his not playing also means he didn't have an opportunity to pop our hope bubble. As I recall, Higbee also looked like a star-in-the-making in the preseason. In the regular season, not so much.
Spruce's preseason was encouraging - for the short time it lasted. Until I see him perform well in the regular season, I think I'll temper my expectations.
