This is what Peter King said about him last year.
Quote:
Peter King of Sports Illustrated believes he'll vote for Thomas.
I am leaning toward voting for him, King said. It's not final, but it's likely. I think Thomas and Bruce Smith were the best pure pass rushers of the 1990s. Thomas wasn't invincible on the field. I once saw Jacksonville's Tony Boselli shut him out, but he was so impactful in how teams had to prepare and account for him.
I've always thought of him as the poor man's Lawrence Taylor, which isn't meant as an insult. It's an honor. He's the closest thing to Taylor that I've seen..
