I would be happy to see him make this team year after year no matter who the saint sign as a FA or draft.

I am not ready to put him as a starter but to get an UDFA as your key backup LB that can play inside or out for the next 10 years is a win win in my book

pass on the Urlacher comparison to different players with two different skill sets.

Re: Rookie Chase Thomas set to help Saints defense

I don't remember seeing Thomas last year, but what I do remember is Stanford having a swarming defense. And btw, they got a bad call against ND on that final goal line play & should have won that ame.

Re: Rookie Chase Thomas set to help Saints defense

Really believe he'll be a starting outside linebacker by next season at the latest...

And no, he won't be like Shanle as he'll have a different set of responsiblities and won't have to share coverage with Roman Harper on Tight Ends and Running Backs in the slot...

I don't know much about the kid but hopefully he makes enough of an impact to make the final roster.

Re: Rookie Chase Thomas set to help Saints defense

He played for Stanford. Their Football program has been in the limelight.

There is no shortage of film on him.

All 32 NFL teams had access to the film and I assume they watched the film.

None of the 32 teams drafted him, including the Saints.

He is an UDFA!!!!!!!!!!

Calm the heck down.

Pierre Thomas played for Illinois, no tiny school either and everybody passed on him while I bet a bunch of teams wish they hadn't. Chase Thomas seems to be a good player and a smart kid. Of course folks will be excited.
