Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
Reports say that the Skins weren't even interested in Davis. His agent contacted the team and the Skins basically said no thanks.
I think Davis is done myself. I think people were thinking with their hearts and not their minds if they seriously wanted him back. |

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
Great, I have Clinton Portis in my Fantasy League and I've just lost at least 5-6 TDs from him this year!

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
You know, maybe it's just because I'm watching the highlight films, but when I watch this guy I get three impressions:
1. A bruising back with a ton of power. 2. DECEPTIVE quickness and speed. Guys this big aren't supposed to run that fast. 3. Great vision and patience in hitting the holes. Seriously, for those of you questioning this move, watch this guy play a little and tell me he's not the prototypical Gibbs RB.

He's definitely going to offer up something entirely different than Portis. A true thunder and lightening combo. |

I don't have a problem with this trade, Duckett is still young and I doubt you can find a back of his caliber in the the third round, further more he really fit what we want to do. I just don't want this to be a 1 year rental, I do believe we now have a true thunder and lightning backfield. |

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
i agree, the redskins have not yet released a report that says we have him, atleast not one that i have seen. could it be because we are waiting to wrap him up long term?

I certainly hope that is the case because there is no way I can get excited about it otherwise. While I like the trade I don't want to have to concern myself with "Is he going to be here after the season is over" There's just no way I beleive they would do the deal without a remake of his contract. For me that's all that's left that is of any interest. |

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
I just checked the team site and the trade is awaiting the passing of physicals.

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
One thing is for sure. Nobody online anywhere has a got a clue as to what exactly we gave up in this trade. There are like 14 different reports. I've never seen anything quite like it. I guess we have to wait until they pass the physicals because the nfl web site just says we gave up a third which would be an amazing deal if you ask me.

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
I don't know if this has been mentioned already. But Gibbs was an owner of the Falcons when they drafted Duckett. And while Gibbs wasn't very actively involved with the team I'm sure he got to see Duckett up close and personal several times in games and practices so he must have some sense of what TJ can do for the Skins
