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.

Well, look at the bright side, at least we don't have to struggle to decide which of our 3 starting caliber tailbacks we should be playing.

Three starting-caliber running backs seems a bit over the top. Neither Bell nor Duckett were able to win starting jobs despite the opportunities being there for the taking on their most recent teams. Jones may be starting-caliber, but he can't stay healthy.

That being said, I'd still take any of them over Noah Herron. :?
