Bucky ducky getting run with the Bucs but Jermar still struggling. Of course I'm biased but Jermar seemed a stronger runner.

Raschad White isn't a great RB, Bucky has opportunity. Jermar has Montgomery and Gibbs in front of him. There is no small amount of a little bit of luck that goes into it sometimes. If for nothing else that to be healthy enough for when you have a window.

I don't remember seeing Bucky do that but also didn't see any duck games; must have missed the highlights.

Jermar was on the IR for a part of last year.

Jermar got hurt in the preseason in 2022 & has not had carry since 2021 with a total 15 carries for 71 yards in his career. It's darn hard to play in NFL hopefully he gets a shot . Good thing he is making between at least 16000 a game up to a little over 21000 a week. # he is doing ok

I'll get ridiculed here but Bucky is a better RB than Jermar. Irving is tough AF to bring down for a little dude, with good speed and hands.
The Lions went out and signed Montgomery as a FA after drafting Jermar, then drafted Gibbs after Jermar was on the roster. He's had his opportunity to prove himself with the Lions.
Still rooting for him. Maybe Las Vegas will trade for him. Zamir is awful.

Good thing he is making between at least 16000 a game up to a little over 21000 a week. # he is doing ok Jermar Jefferson got hurt in training camp in 2021 but got back to well enough to play in the preseason. Nevertheless, he did not play in the regular season until week six and then only in special teams. He played on offense in six games in an eight-week period from weeks 8-14 and did not get any touches in two of those games. In seven games in 2021, Jefferson has 15 carries for 74 yards and two touchdowns. Jefferson also had four receptions for 23 yards. 19 touches for 97 yards. Jefferson missed part of 2022 hurt but was activated for the finale before being a healthy scratch. Jefferson started 2023 hurt and was out of the NFL for about seven weeks before winding up back with the Lions after trying to find a better situation with the Cards. What has killed Jefferson first is that he cannot stay healthy. This is Jefferson's healthiest year in the NFL ever, and I am not sure that he is really 100% after his injuries the last three years. The second thing that has killed Jefferson is that he is not an elite enough running back to not be good on special teams, and he is not good on special teams. He missed a lot of time his first season by not being able to at least return a kickoff and that has put him in a hole that he has just never really recovered from. It may have helped Jefferson to come back in 2021 to work on becoming a returner, so that he would have been more marketable, so that he could have been drafted higher or at least been able to play some special teams to get himself some more touches early on.

Picked up Bucky in FF. I often won't pick up quacks in fake football, but I was desperate for a back......I definitely don't feel good about having him on my team. Feels dirty

Bucky ducky getting run with the Bucs but Jermar still struggling. Of course I'm biased but Jermar seemed a stronger runner. I am looking at this some more. Jermar is bigger but that is about it. Bucky is faster and stronger. Bucky does not have at least three different injuries in the NFL yet.
