The potential is there but I'll be surprised if Michael Thomas doesn't turn into a solid pro.

Considered Treadwell more of a sure thing than Thomas; but the thinking was right - got to get Drew those big athletic buckets to dump the ball in; again, I like Thomas and he was great value where selected, just considered Treadwell more of a sure thing in the Payton offense...

Just don't share the optimism with regards to Fleener and am hoping that he gets to the Saints and shows he's tougher both in showing up every week and winning contested passes...
