    With the money they get now days Yes. But in real life no. But someone has to step in and replace Knox and this just might be the guy. At least he is talking like he might be. I really don't know all that much about him, but if he is going to a WR for us I don't think he is thinking is going to be a starter.

    Marshall taking all the coverage all our receivers are going to be much better. Who knows, maybe Thomas will benefit from Marshall and have a breakout year. He has the speed and height for receiver and if he's on ST he's got the toughness you'd like. If he's gonna breakout into a starting WR this is a great opportunity and situation to do so.

    He may not be able to get into the starting lineup but he sure can take away time from the other guys that aren't producing much to begin with. Thomas has a lot of talent. I know many have written him off as being a NFL caliber WR but its not the first time an NFL journeyman made it as a receiver. He's still young at 25 and hopefully they give him a serious look at WR.
