RUMOR: Skins Want To Deal Devin Thomas

Alvin Walton · 10-04-2010, 01:57 PM

He's an underachieving Vinny pick. He's going to be gone sooner or later. I just hope its for a draft pick and not a player.

I just don't get how a team with one legit NFL wr wants to trade DT. Really makes no sense.

He's been on the block on and off for a few months now. Two words...Vincent Jackson

The most we can hope for is a few kicking tees and some footballs signed by DeSean Jackson.

Eddie Royal was a rookie and he earned the starting spot on the Broncos' roster ahead of vets on the team. He also was a punt returner. So don't say Shanny just doesn't wanna play the young guys.

Most of our WR's are running routes as decoys why not let DT do the same the only WR's catching the ball is Moss, AA sometimes, JG sometimes why not give DT a chance. I guess the FO knows best.

One things for sure. The Shanahan's love speed.

Eh, true, still doesn't change the fact that Armstrong can flat out fly.

Do those two words mean we're trying to include Thomas in a deal to get Jackson or that Thomas has been on the block for months now, just like Vincent Jackson?

The former

BigHairedAristocrat · 10-04-2010, 02:50 PM

Well couldn't they have done that two weeks ago so we could have had him this week?! Good grief. Perhaps the reason we haven't been playing thomas is to keep him from potentially getting injured and hurting his trade value.

Mechanix544 · 10-04-2010, 02:56 PM

Id like to think that is true...........Now i cant see any deal that will get VJ here, but, with this front office, who the hell really knows?? It just seems that if that trade or situation were going to happen, it would have happened by now

aceinthehouse · 10-04-2010, 03:00 PM

Trading DT for VJ would be freakin' awesome!!!

We get a TRUE #1 wr...
DT goes to the AFC,where he won't burn our ass even if he becomes good..(which probably won't happen,if he's stupid and can't run routes)
Our offense becomes quite deadly by adding this fast 6'5" stud and our Offense is ranked #13th currently...(G.B. is 14th btw..)
and it gives us a true red zone offensive threat that we really don't have at all at the wr position.

With a WR core of
Vincent Jackson #1
Santana Moss #2
Anthony Armstrong #3
Joey Galloway #4
Roydell Williams #5
Brandon Banks #6

Gives us 5 of our 6 wr's can truly take a long pass to the house,at anytime...
This will also significantly open up our running game even more...

With those kinds of weapons and cooley and davis,teams will HAVE TO respect our passing game... Specially with a QB NOT AFRAID to throw the ball down the field.

Give them DT and the 4th rounder from the Raiders next year for VJ.

Ya, this.

Except I think the deal would be a bit more attractive if you substitute Devin Thomas with a box of extra absorbant tampons. 1 box and the fourth rounder, and maybe toss in some preperation H so that GM in San Diego can quit being so damn uptight.
