Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
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.

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
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

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
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

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
There is no way we would send a 1st and a 3rd to Denver even if Denver runs the table. If that is in the cards, The Danny is officially crazy. Yeah, the RB situation is a little shaky, but it was not THAT much of a need.

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
Why is everyone so high on betts? What has he ever done other than a few good runs here and there. He gets injured yearly, and coaches praise him so much it reminds me of a certain reciever... 4 years in and hasn't broken 400 yds in a season. Same draft, Duck by the numbers seems better to me...and lord knows when it comes to playing style I'd rather have a battering ram, that duckett is faster in the open field seals the deal for me.
***EDIT*** Tried to post their stats down here but it was all screwy looking. Numbers: Duckett has been in 7 more games, has 231 more carries, 904 more yards, .1 less yards a carry 3.9/4.0, 26 more TDs 31/5. Basically, i disagree with folks that are saying duckett isn't good, that he hasn't done anything, and that he will be our 3rd string back.

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
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?

I like our chances to finish better than Denver, but even if we do, it's still a 3 and 4 which is a great deal for Denver. If we are gonna gamble, why not offer a 5th that would become a first and third if they have a better record than us. This is a win-win for Denver the way it is right now. |

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
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

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
The only thing im worried about is that this was a desperation move because Portis is more hurt then they are tellin us.

Re: We traded for T.J. Duckett?
i'm actually hoping they just realized they want Portis around here a long time and need a tough guy 2nd runner to spread the work around. Betts was talented, but tough he was not.
