We traded for T.J. Duckett?

[Darrell_Green_28]

I dont understand this part , but i do trust Gibbs and Co decisions.
The report said that Denver will receive Washington's first- and third-round picks if the Redskins finish with a worse record than the Broncos this season. If Washington finishes with a better record, Denver would receive third- and fourth-round picks.

How many years does Ducket have left on his contract?

I really like this move... a 3rd is semi-high, but Duckett's still kind of young... we need to keep Portis fresh and Betts hasn't proven to be all world healthy. This helps us now- ain't that what we're playing for this season?

Broncos | Team could receive two first-day draft picks for Lelie
Tue, 22 Aug 2006 19:38:03 -0700
Updating previous reports, Jeff Legwold, of the Rocky Mountain News, reports the Denver Broncos could receive two first-day draft picks from the Washington Redskins in the three-team trade involving former Broncos WR Ashley Lelie. If the Redskins finish with a worse record than the Broncos in 2006, Denver would receive the Redskins' first- and third-round picks. If the Redskins finish with a better record than the Broncos, Denver would receive the Redskins' third- and fourth-round picks.

this is retarded...even if we finish with a better record than them...and it makes no sense

The Falcons Michael Vick and DeAngelo Hall are both rumored to run the 40 in the 4.2 second range, and 255-pound running back T.J. Duckett was clocked at a 4.38 during his senior workouts at Michigan State.

oh yeah good point. Saunders could be changing the way all NFL teams run an offense. How about this Duckett moves to fullback......why not have a fast fullback. He can get out and around for the big blocks Clinton and Ladell need to break the big one. We already have one of the best o-lines (when healthy) Now we have the triple threat..... do you put eight in the box? We burn you deep. Do you play the pass? We burn you with the run outside. do you run blitz? we send Duckett up the gut. Unstoppable offense. come on say it with me...UNSTOPPABLE OFFENSE. It just sucks for guys like Rock how's been around for awhile ,to just fall by the wayside. We are gonna be nasty. Great defense + unstopple offense = Dynasty

if this is true, then it's a dumb move... a first and third possibly? that's terrible...

[Hail2em]

How does denver do this...got a first rounder in the champ - portis trade and now could get 2 of our picks for this trade...give me a break. should be 1 for 1 for 1 point blank period.

[Big C]

we better finish with a better record than the broncos...i cant go another draft without a first round pick

what happens if we have the same record? lol

[gusbus]

The only thing I don't like about the trade is that Duckett is in his last year of his contract and we gave up a third round pick. It is a risky move?

I hate giving up draft picks but The Duck sure brings something to the table!!! Down by the gold line or short yardage he can give us a lot. Also free up the outside and the pass to a TE or WR as D's key to stop the short run. If he is as good as those highlight it just might be a good pick up. Will he be a freeagent next year like Betts ?

[steveo395]

i'm seriously going to kill somebody if we have to give up a 1st and 3rd pick

we could get almost any player in the league for a 1st and 3rd pick

[illdefined]

holy crap. not sure what to think about this. 2 draft picks?

this only makes sense if we trade away Betts right now. lets get a corner or lineman for him before the season starts. I was never personally attached to Betts - how you gonna be slower and bigger than Portis, but LESS tough??

would be funny if we traded Betts now, he's the Redskin Wallpaper player in Madden 07...don't ask me why

we gave a second rounder in that trade

[steveo395]

the espn.com article says there is a complicated formula for what draft picks they get, but at worst the would get our 3rd and 4th rounders...and i guess the 4th rounder is for the 2008 draft because we dont have one for '07

[PorterHouse]

The only thing im worried about is that this was a desperation move because Portis is more hurt then they are tellin us.
