Re: Devin Thomas

The one thing that I have found very curious about D. Thomas' performance in the off-season so far, is how few times Zorn has called his number. I have watched a couple of Philly's game and you can tell that they are running plays just to get D. Jackson involved. For some reason I haven't seen Zorn do any of that, now I obviously don't know what plays are getting called but I haven't seen anything where I felt that they were just trying to get Thomas the ball - no slants, no screens nothing. Has anyone else noticed the same thing?

they threw him a screen sat. night which he ran for 3-4 yards. He was definitely hesitant, just like he was on the kickoff returns. Definitely looks like a rookie who hasn't played much in camp.

Interesting point. All I will say is if you're going off of pure production, wasn't D. Jackson the best wr in the draft? He played against top college talent and his production was high and he played in a pro style offense. His only knock was his size. But it seems that our front office was very worried about the size of our wr's and maybe over looked production. Time will tell. It's still early.
