We shouldn't forget that Thomas is a 4.33 player. That's fast at 210 pounds.
This is a really good video that I don't think has been shared showing some of Thomas' routes.

I'm all in on this guy. A couple of months ago I very intrigued. Then I migrated to the LT needs to be the pick. But I think I am back to this being my guy in round 1.
It would be interesting to know who the guy is that prompted Veech into saying we wanted to keep our 1st round pick this year at draft time last year. He had to know we would be picking around 30, so it surely wasn't someone he knew was going top 5.
