Recapping all of the first round Spartans of the last 21 years.

T.J. Duckett, Running Back – 18th overall to Atlanta Falcons, 2002

Duckett had a couple of nice seasons with Atlanta, usually serving a complimentary role in the team’s rushing attack featuring Mike Vick and Warrick Dunn. He had a career-best 779 yards and 11 touchdowns during the 2003 season and stuck around the NFL for seven years, which is pretty solid for a running back.
