For muscle memory it's worth it, also to do some muscle fatigue stuff (holding a choke for an extended period of time).

The one problem I run into with mine (Bubba II) is that you obvsiouly don't get the resistance you'd get from a live partner, so I don't find myself getting much of a benefit, other than muscle memory.

All and all, the grappling dummies are as beneficial to a grappler as a heavy bag is to a boxer... you get to work on your timing and combos, etc..
