The coaches seem to think that using Thomas this way is very similar to the way that Wade Phillips and Brian Stewart used Donnie Edwards on the same side as Shawn Merriman in San Diego 2 years ago when that defense racked up 60 or so sacks in the season.
But Thomas will have to beat out Akin Ayodele for the starting position. If not, that is really not bad depth at all on that side.

When you do it that way it is a smarter move than people think
