ESPN: Devin Thomas not secure until he's playing the 'Deadskins"

[warriorzpath]

There are no more deadskins. Shanahan has finally cut all the dead weight from the "deadskins" team that Devon Thomas was a part off.

[TenandSix:Unacceptable]

Eat a fat Washington *@#* Devin Thomas.

[pg86]

sniff sniff* you smell that? Smells like Devin Thomas is on that Bullshit again!

The best chance he had at a good career ended when we lost to the saints that year they won the super bowl

[ethat001]

I had high hopes for Devin, if only because every other pick that year sucked. Now I'm glad that for once the other team is picking up our scraps. Justice would be served if someone else picked up Kelly..

Conversely, I'm very impressed with our draft so far. We'll see how they do all year.
1) Kerrigan - interception/TD - good so far
2) Jenkins - probable starter, injured
7) Neild - 2 sacks!

Hank / Helu / Paul / Gomes still waiting for eval / game time but all look good so far.

Fred Davis sure made a case in week one that he should not be on that "sucked" list. He was one of our 3 2nd rounders that year. Now I dont think he will come close to doing that every week but he has contributed well the last 2 years.

Actually after rewatching the game yesterday. I think he may have a good shot at getting a lot of action this year. We ran alot of 2TE sets and some plays FD was in there and CC was not. He made some awesome catches and saved Rex a few times by catching overthrown balls. FD, I believe has arrived. BTW if we can use 2 TEs like New E does both of our guys will be productive.

I liked Thomas too when we had him, actually thought he was going to be quite solid..turns out he didn't give a sh*t about practicing or learning the game so F him .. have fun being cut soon .. you are worthless & will be bankrupt in less than 8 years ... HTTR

P.S. I CANT WAIT TO SEE WHAT HANKTIME85 CAN DO IN A FEW WEEKS

I spotted him during the game on a kickoff return. He got blown up, short of the 20 yard line. He's #15 now.

After seeing the Giants play I see why they kept DT. Its nice to see our rejects can actual be an improvement for the other team. Ops did he even play? Did any of the giants WR's play in the 2nd half?

[SmootSmack]

You know, I still can't figure out why DT said what he said. Was he just trying to be funny? I don't know. Because I've heard him say many times over the past year (both on and off record) that he's grateful to Shanahan for giving him the reality check he needed that pure talent wasn't going to get you far in the NFL if you don't put the work in as well.

I think that's a kind of joke that falls flat when someone has paid you a fortune to not produce. In football, you don't shoot off your mouth. PERIOD. If Mr. Thomas finds himself unemployed, will the redskins call, now? Even if we need help?

You just don't badmouth a former employer.....it's too small of a world for it to not come back and bite you.

Let Thomas keep talking. It's just more bulletin board material for the 'skins.

That's if the bulletin board is for the super happy funny stuff.
