Undrafted RB Jahad Thomas Has Ample Opportunity To Earn A Roster Spot

[jobberone]

LeGarrette Blount. Power back 18 TD last yr with the Patriots???

Ok, I've always liked this player. It makes me wonder why he does so well but teams don't keep him. I don't consider him a lead blocker but that's generally in the player's head much more than talent. I'd rather have him than Morris. I wouldn't get rid of McFadden for him as I would see him as bringing a different skillset. I wouldn't mind having him IF he doesn't cost too much.

Well he is 30...that may have affected the Patriots thinking.

30 is the new 25

He'll sign with someone. Problem is, the Pats shrewdly slapped a second round tender on him right before the comp pick time period ended. He was headed to the Giants was the word.

Works out for us, for now. Don't wanna see him on the Giants

The Little Giants have enough--- don't let em get any more.

Amen to that! And they needed a RB and OLine heading in the draft, and nary addressed either. Blount would have been a good pickup for them.

When Belichick slapped that tender on him, they were freaking out on r/NFL

Not for RB's.

That's true. Might affect others as well. Good point.

Yeah, especially given the way Blount runs.

His nickname in NE was Blount Force Trauma lol

Just glad he left the stealers

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Had one last year but cut Darius Jackson to keep Dunbar for a couple more games...that was a mistake!!!

Team obviously didn't see anythihg. in his game to keep him around. Or he'd still be here.

 

[bodi]

sorry I like the kid

 

[AsthmaField]

Isn't it spelled "Blunt"... as in "pass me that blunt."?

 

[Nirvana]

Basically if this guy has a decent camp and shows up in the preseason games, along with making plays on special teams, he is RB #3 behind Zeke and McFadden. Book it. Morris is toast.

yet 13 other teams put in a claim on him.....

And yet was waived by the Cboys. lol.

 

[gmoney112]

I want Switzer back returning punts.

If Thomas can play, great. But, I really don't want to carry a guy because he fills a Coach niche.

He's fun to watch but I have questions about what he's going to do in the NFL. I think there will probably be better options when cuts start happening. We'll see.

so was Jimmy Smith

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

so was Jimmy Smith

And Smith became a pro bowler. Jackson became a Cleveland Brown. Whatever floats your boat.
