I have no doubt he piled up plenty on wide open throws down field. I saw a lot of Ohio State games, and this guy never did much to impress me.
As far as reading scouting reports, I've read that his route running is not very polished, and that he doesn't really fight for the off target ball. It makes sense that PFF (the "scouting" service I make fun of routinely) would be the one to try to contradict all of that. I've seen the guy play. I'm not overly impressed. |
If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

Re: Michael Thomas!!
Undersized DT. Slow WR. Undersized safety. I don't think any will bust, but I don't see any boom at all.

Re: Michael Thomas!!
I never heard about him being a cancer in Carolina. I never heard much about him at all until his domestic case that got him sent out of Carolina. I'll take those 10-15 sacks on a cheap contract.
