Running Back Rank: #222
Overall: #921
Duckett averaged a pitiful 2.8 yards per carry, but that was mainly due to the fact he worked as the short-yardage back when called upon by the Seahawks. He scored eight touchdowns, his most since '05. He has eight or more touchdowns in four seasons, making Duckett a solid short-yardage option. He is a big back, but has alright speed for his size. He is a straight-ahead back, though.

Duckett has some potential if he starts getting short-yardage work, but nothing is certain at this point of his career. |

| Clare Farnsworth, of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, reports the Seattle Seahawks will be a team that relies more on the running game under the team's new coaching staff.

We'll couple a tremendous run game with a smart, experienced, talented quarterback, and come up with the best packages we can come up with.' RB Julius Jones and RB T.J. Duckett are likely to see their roles expand in the offense next season. |
