Spikes is a good downhill, thumper sort of linebacker. But he sucks in coverage and is slower than molasses. And he likes to post sex videos of himself on the Internet. I don't think he will every be a three-down linebacker which is going to hurt his long-term value. Keep in mind, everyone in there mom had 10-15 tackles for the Patriots against the Ravens last week.
I think Spikes can have LB3 value in the right matchups (PIT, MIN, and maybe even CLE). He wouldn't be a bad pickup as a bye week filler. I just wouldn't expect the production we saw from him last week on a consistent basis.
