^ Part of our problem (I think) is our #3 and our #4 are tied up next yr. Depending on how McNabb does depends on which we send to Philli. The other goes to the Saints for the OL we picked up. So we have picks in rounds 1,2,5,6,7. Maybe we can offer this yrs 5th and a 2nd in 2011? I don't know.

I will say this about Thomas though. I was excited when we picked up both Thomas and Kelly. Kinda pissed we picked up Kelly already injured and needing surgery but we did. Kelly got a pass the first yr due to injury. Thomas really didn't shine, hardly saw the field. So WR's supposedly have a 3 yr improvement plan and shine in their 3rd yr according to some but Thomas didn't improve his second yr (hardly) and Kelly was injured again. This is the pairs 3rd yr, their bust out yr supposedly and Kelly is injured once again and Thomas is now what 4th, 5th on the depth chart?

Maybe he's just not as good as some of you want to believe, and your holding out hope he gets over some invisible hump that he might not ever get over. I saw potential in Mason and after 3 yrs of no improvement and a HC knowing what he's doing by letting him go I had to come to grips with the fact that Mason was just not as good as I thought. So to with Thomas.

If we can get VJ then get him... we need a WR with his type of talent... I don't care who it is and we are starting to look at slim picking now. But I'm honestly done holding out hope Thomas will step up and be "the man." Pretty bad when an undrafted WR steps up and looks better then a second rounder. Thomas should be embarrased.
