Re: Devin Thomas Cut By Panthers
Either the Giants will sign him or he is on his way to a fulltime modeling career.

Re: Devin Thomas Cut By Panthers
He couldn't even master the go route. Sad.

Re: Devin Thomas Cut By Panthers
I think his career is done (sad for a guy that showed flashes of real promise). But if there's a team in the league desparate to find a spark -- any kind of spark -- it is the Panthers. Getting cut here is a real indictment.

Re: Devin Thomas Cut By Panthers
Good luck to Devin. I don't think being cut after being picked up midseason is that big of an indictment. I hope Devin catches on with a team and gets a whole offseason with them. If nothing else he should have a place returning kicks/punts. He was pretty good for us.

Re: Devin Thomas Cut By Panthers
Just shows how little VC knows about drafting talent

Re: Devin Thomas Cut By Panthers
Difficult to believe we missed so badly on DT. This latest move will test just much he really want's to be an NFL receiver. I'm sure he's aware of what he has to work on, but it could be he just dosen't have it.

Re: Devin Thomas Cut By Panthers
If he can't play for Carolina then it's just not meant to be.

Re: Devin Thomas Cut By Panthers
DT being cut again just affirms my belief that you shouldn't draft anybody from MSU anymore. Lorenzo White was the last Spartan that really performed. The Lions like to draft MSU QBs, but they only ever make it to the backup spot. Hopefully Cousins and his WRs coming out prove me wrong, but I hope the Skins aren't the team taking that chance.

Re: Devin Thomas Cut By Panthers
Vet minimum?!
DT doesn't seem to cut well at full speed, he might've taken a couple to the house here if he could've made some moves after he got through the wall. I think this guy could probably play RB, might have to bulk up a little more, but he's already pretty big. He runs more like a rb than a wr. |

WR's kept (and playing) ahead of DT: Dave Gettis: 25 catches, 54% catch ratio (catches/targets); 3 TD's Brandon LaFell: 20 catches, 47% Catch Ratio; 1 TD David Clowney: 4 catches, 50% Catch Ratio, 0 TD Gettis is listed as WR2. DT can't beat one of these guys out for a one year roster spot? That's an indictment.
