World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

[URL="http://photos.essence.com/galleries/eye_candy_devin_thomas#342281"]Eye Candy: Devin Thomas - essence.com[/URL]

I know what you're thinking but before you ask I came across this link from a tweet that Devin posted 5 minutes ago:

"[COLOR=DarkRed]CHECK ME OUT ON ESSENCE.COM EYE CANDY OF THE WEEK!!![/COLOR][COLOR=DarkRed] - DT[/COLOR]"
[COLOR=DarkRed][URL="http://twitter.com/devinthomas/status/8828630713"]5 minutes ago [/URL] from web[/COLOR]

Though I'm not the targeted demographic for this piece I still took a look since it was Skins related. It's unappealing if you enjoy the company of the fairer sex...or should I say phallically-challenged sex in this case.

One thing it does bring up for me, two things if you're enchanted with the male sex (not that there is anything wrong with that), is that ever since Thomas has gotten into the NFL and with the Skins' it seems as if he is ultra concerned with appearances.


I know I've seen him chest-thump and shimmy enough times after 7 yard catches and 6 yard reverses to come to the conclusion that he fancies himself pretty well. It's great that he has such good self esteem but this pictorial just seems like more proof that he's more interested in football for the off field glory than developing on field production.

Thomas did come on stronger at the end of last season so I'm not completely discounting his on field efforts. From my perspective as a fan though he is exposing more of himself in mags than he is opposing team's defenses.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

I really don't care what he does off the field as long as he continues to improve on it.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

A man in search of something or himself....Not sure which, or maybe it's a combination of the two.

Classic line, Tee.

I didn't know that DT was part Blackfoot. He's a true Redskin!

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

Well thats what we need.. A pre madonna wr!! I like dt but he needs to step his game up on the field first!

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

Why is it whenever a player does even the slightest thing off the field we assume he isnt doing anything on it?

p.s. he's a WR 90% of them are in love with them selves.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

devin's a cool ass dude, when i meet him he was real cool and not a dick or very full of himself. i bet he will get a good hand-full-o-ass from this. i just hope he keeps on the same track from last year he could end up being our number one by the start of the season

After two years in the league he has:
40 catches for 445 yards and 3 TD's with his longest single pass play being 40 yards that compromises around 10% of his lifetime career yardage after two complete seasons.

Earl Bennett, selected in the round after Thomas didn't even touch the field in 2008 and he has yielded 54 catches for 717 yards and 2 TD's.


There is no assumption here...he isn't doing anything of note on the field.

...Not saying that he can't, just saying that he has yet to. Not an indictment of his future, just his past.

Let's hope he can keep more focused than the background image to his twitter account.

he does have the second highest average of yards per catch on the team at 13 yards, kelly is better by .9 yards. while he only caught 25 passes that doesn't always mean it was his fault, i think we have some promise at wr we just need to use them the right way. time will tell, and i think they both need another year, obviously our caoching has been lacking the past two years, they could explode under shanny's new system

Probabley his slow start in pro career.

who was throwing the ball to Bennett? could be a reason ....IMO

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

It's one magazine appearance like that.. in the offseason.. doesn't look like he's gone out and gotten fat either, nothing to talk about.

The internet era just exposes so much of everybody's life that some people will never find an end of shit to complain about.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

You know what's really sexy? Touchdown Catches.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

Let him enjoy himself as long as he improves on the field that's all that matters.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

I thought we all came to the conclusion after sherm lewis took over that it was just the playcalling that was responsible for DT's lack of production. Once we started putting him in plays he actually played pretty well.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

[quote=Dirtbag359;661742]You know what's really sexy? Touchdown Catches.[/quote]

LOL!...That's the sexiest of all...lol.

I could stare all day at 20 page pictorial spread of DT's touchdown catches. He could be semi-naked too if he wants to be or thinks it would help him. I'd still glare at those pics with tawdry excitement like they were published by Larry Flint : )

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

so long as he doesn't pull a Greg Oden...(or a cooley) i'm cool

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

Sky's the limit for DT especially with Shanahan on board

Exactly my point. When he was given a real chance to play he did pretty damn good.

As for Earl Bennet, he was playing on a team that

A.) all but abandoned the run

B.) Had no notable wide receivers

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

I hear he's also friends with Miles Austin, which just makes him pure evil...

From what I understand, DT is loving all the attention the ladies in DC are giving him. But he's still working very hard so I got no problem with this

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

I'm interested in seeing how much more productive he'll be in his 3rd year with a different coaching staff. We could begin to see whether it was him as a player limiting himself, or if it was the coaches that either didn't play him, or put him in the right position to make more plays. He's still more of a wait and see......

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

i'm not gonna hate. his production went up towards the end of the season and to my knowledge he's kept his nose clean off the field. so if this is fun for him, more power to DT. i just hope he's keeping next year in focus.


and lol @ those captions. i think i could write for essence, here's the formula: "(insert sensitive, female-geared DT quote here)" + "we'd love to (insert corny sexually allusive metaphor here)". got it!

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

For some reason when I see this I think Brandon Lloyd.

braylon edwards was the first one i thought of, imo he leads the pack as far as diva wr in the nfl right now, he would rather be a model than have anything to do with football

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

Looks really dont matter right now.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

What's really the difference between doing a 1 or 2 day photoshoot and taking a golf vacation or doing a regular magazine piece? He might have to rely on modeling if the NFL thing doesn't work out, he gets injured, or whatever.

I'm sure it's more like 98%-99.9%

Better to send him to the island of ugly men, just to be safe.

Not looking good for Devin at this point in the season.

Adding Banks to the active roster and having players other than Thomas take back kicks pretty much eliminates any need for DT on the roster.

If he can't beat Galloway for a starting WR spot or Banks for a special teams spot looks like his fate is pretty much sealed.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

Women love this guy. I can't tell you how many times I've been searching twitter to find an update on DT's role in the offense only to find some woman declare DT as her future husband. And most of this is just in the last 12 hours.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

He favors The Game. Move along people. There's nothing to see here.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

I just heard on 980 that the Skins are shopping him around for trade bait.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

There is a whole new thread in regards to the Thomas shopping.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

I do not understand what he could possibly do so wrong to not get a shot.

Re: World's Sexiest Wideout...Devin Thomas
 

DT has allways reminded me of BL, hes just seems focused on other stuff too much.

But BL is having a nice start so far this season:

Let's continue on with the trade talk in the other thread.
