Re: Redskins release Devin Thomas
This was a rumor I'd been hearing for a couple of weeks that I thought couldn't possibly be true. They kept saying he'll be cut if he's not traded and I thought "no way" guess Shanallen don't play that. DT also probably didn't help himself going around this week implying the reason he want playing was personal. Oh well, Tripps happy

Re: Redskins release Devin Thomas
I'm just thinking back to the offseason when people were talking about how malcolm kelly and devin thomas were going to go off this year.

Re: Redskins release Devin Thomas
DT made his own bed. Let's not forget how he couldn't pass the conditioning test his rookie year, was always inconsistent in his route running, has iffy hands, and despite having a golden opportunity this year with a relatively thin WR corps, couldn't rise above the likes of Galloway, Armstrong, etc.

Re: Redskins release Devin Thomas
I guess running precise routes matters to Shanny...
Whatever. I'll trust the new regime on this one. God knows the old regime responsible for bringing DT here doesn't have any credibility. What's more likely: Shanny and Allen have no idea what they're doing or Vinny and co. made a bad pick? You decide.

Re: Redskins release Devin Thomas
Unreal. I just recently heard all the trade rumors surrounding Thomas, so you mean to tell me we couldn't even get a 7th rounder for him???? Seriously Allen?

Re: Redskins release Devin Thomas
What has he done to justify any sort of pick in return? I knew trying to trade him was going to be a real stretch.

Re: Redskins release Devin Thomas
Hahahahaha!
My brother and I have had a running bet for beers the last three seasons as to who will have the more productive year receiving between Devin Thomas and Malcolm Kelly. I of course have had Kelly each year and I always lose because Mr Glass never plays and Devin Thomas(who I think stinks) wins with 240 yards receiving. Now this year I'm really screwed because Mr. Glass doesn't even make it out of preseason and all my brother needs to win the beers is for Devin Thomas to make one freakin reception. And it doesn't count if he makes two receptions for six yards for some other team this year. Epic push! |

Re: Redskins release Devin Thomas
If any team out there was willing to trade for him, we would have gotten something for him.
The fact that nobody would even give up a 7th rounder for him says 2 things: the rest of the league agrees with Shanahan, and/or they knew he was going to be cut so there's no use in trading for him. Anything higher than a 7th rounder would have been a pipe dream anyway. The guy hasn't done squat. |
