Duckett Heading To Detroit

DUCKETT TO DETROIT
Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that running back T.J. Duckett has agreed to terms with the Detroit Lions.
Duckett will sign a one-year, $1.5 million contract with the Lions.
The maneuver gives the Lions three starting-caliber tailbacks -- Duckett, Tatum Bell, and Kevin Jones. We've previously heard that Bell, who was acquired recently from the Broncos as part of the Dre' Bly trade, is a candidate to be traded again.
Duckett did the deal with Detroit after visiting the Seahawks.

Re: Duckett Heading To Detroit

Well I'm glad we were able to prove to Detroit that he wasn't worth a third round draft choice. It's ever so nice to help out when we can.

Cue the "Hindsight Is 20/20" crowd ...

If I wanted to turn around a terrible franchise, the first thing that I would do is sign a 260 pound scatback!

Not exactly 20/20 when 90% of the board says "Wow, what a stupid trade." A 3rd rounder for a back we never used. Oh well.

I don't recall 90% of us hating on the deal at the time. The majority liked the deal at the time.

I had mixed feelings from the go on duck, giving up a third. But our needs required taking a chance. It just didn't work.

I didn't like the trade to begin with. I was really confused when it happened seeing we had Sellers.

Re: Duckett Heading To Detroit

I remember hating it and wondering why we couldn't just singleback sellers in the worst case scenario...

I remember dreaming about the quality of back a 3rd round pick COULD have snagged if we shopped around a little bit.

Honestly we could have ended up with a guy that would have been good enough to warrent letting Betts walk.

You gotta love Detroit though, what better way to turn around a franchise than acquiring a bunch of backs who aren't good.
