Duckett available?

On Madden as a backup he plays like a beast. Previous year in ATL thought he was a beast!? You wouldn't want him? Portis, Betts, Duckett, Sellers. Brutal lineup if ya ask me!

Uh, we had that last season, and Duckett never saw the field. which in my opinion was a shame. there were numberous opportunities for him to touch the ball in short yard situations, but the coaches i guess dont think he was good enought to play on this team. I tell one thing about him, he is a class guy. He never once complained about the playing time or lack there of. Always said he enjoyed playing in Washington and would do anything Gibbs asked.

there is only one ball...if they had any desire to use his skills, they would have...fact is TJ doesn't fit in Gibbs' plan

Duckett was an expensive insurance policy we didn't need last year in hindsight. That was a one shot deal, he won't be back here.

Sure he did. In the latter part of the season he had plenty of chances to play.

Just didn't do JACK withem! Good to know he's a team guy.... that can't get it done on the field.

Wow Lux, next you'll be telling us to bring Darrell Green back to play CB

I really like TJ. Think it was silly to give up so much for him for 1/2 of a season. I'd love to see him resign. Any chance of Duckett coming back? Has he signed elsewhere yet?

Re-sign. For the love of all that's sacred, can't you please use the hyphen? I'm begging you please. (nothing personal, just a little peeve of mine)

Now, in terms of Duckett's skills, I think we would have gotten a better idea about him if he hadn't stood around most of the season. Also, a big back needs a few carries to get into a rythm. So, in the context of the season and the context of single games, we never saw the real Duckett. Or maybe we did. Atlanta did trade him afterall.

I agree with Matty. One year insurance policy. It looks like a bad decision now. At the time we were all a little shell shocked from the Portis injury. I think Betts history of injury swung the decision. If someone had been able assure Gibbs that Betts would have stayed healthy, I don't think he makes the trade. We don't get those guarantees. You have to make the best decision at the time. And the likelihood at the time was that there ws little chance of Betts staying healthy if he played an entire season.

Duckett wasn't brought in to be an impact player. He was brought in as insurance incase we lost Betts after losing Portis to injury. With Betts' injury history that luckily didn't resurface last season, it was a very smart move. Without Duckett on the roster, we would've been pretty much screwed at RB if Betts had gone down. Rock would be our only real option and he's unproven at RB, great on kick returns though. It's no one's fault that Betts stayed healthy and we didn't need T.J., but if we were left without a capable RB, I bet all of you would be grilling the coaching staff for it.

Why do you love him so much he averaged 3.5 yrards two TDs and we have Portis & Betts which both are better.

no chance, wouldn't want him. he's not big, he's fat, and he doesn't hit the hole hard, he dances around behind the line. total waste of money and a draft pick.

i would dis agree w/ u. yes he doesn't hit the whole hard but he's not fat at all. i saw him up close once. real low body fat.

He's not coming back. Your 3rd RB has to be able to do more than just play tailback. Duckett is not a fullback and he does not play teams. He's long gone.
